Eric Owen Moss
" Through years of experience, EOM has developed an architectural language that reflects an understanding and exploration of a building's impact on its environment. Yet architects and buildings are not isolated from the world, and EOM acknowledges the contributing factors of context, site, client and program, design and detail in every aspect of the work.
One of the office's greatest strengths is working with clients and their programs. Every building is a solution of specific programmatic needs, but simply providing a solution is the minimum standard of performance. Our office prides itself on award winning designs that bring the building above mere problem solving into an architectural realm that provides the client with a stimulating environment, while accommodating their present and future needs.
Our architectural interests result in a meticulous attention to detail. The way things are put together and the materials they are made from combine to produce buildings that communicate the care taken to achieve the project. By designing each and every aspect of the building, from general organization to the nuts and bolts, and through careful oversight during construction, we produce high-quality architecture at every scale.

" Murphy/Jahn is a unique architectural firm conceived to meet the challenges posed by the new millennium.
Under the leadership of Helmut Jahn, the practice has grown and evolved steadily from the original firm, which was founded over 50 years ago.
Through 30 years of “organization building”, Murphy/Jahn has succeeded in combining the best of design creativity and corporate professionalism.
We believe our commitment to this balance is fundamental to the successful translation from architectural concept into built reality.
We are committed to creating forward reaching buildings, which will endure the test of time and become a source of pride in the minds of owners, users, communities, and ourselves. "

" William McDonough is an internationally renowned designer and one of the primary proponents and shapers of what he and his partners call 'The Next Industrial Revolution.' In 1999 Time magazine recognized him as a 'Hero for the Planet' (2/22/99), stating that "his utopianism is grounded in a unified philosophy that—in demonstrable and practical ways—is changing the design of the world." His ideas and efforts were also honored when, in 1996, he became the only individual to receive the Presidential Award for Sustainable Development, the nation's highest environmental honor, presented by President Clinton in a White House ceremony." more

Beyer Blinder Belle's

" Thirty-four years ago . . . Three architects from Cambridge, Massachusetts traveled the same circles, attended the same functions unbeknownst to each other. Years later they "found" one another working for the same New York architect. In 1968, linked by destiny and a vision, they opened their doors on Union Square.
Their mission . . . To rescue America's cities from the urban degeneration of the ‘50s & ‘60s.
Convinced that urban environments are enriched by diversity and the dynamic interaction of past and present, Beyer Blinder Belle unites the old with the new – classic historic preservation meshed with the creative contemporary design of new construction. ..." more

" Venturi, Scott Brown and Associates is almost alone in continuing the project of Modernism -- engaging in an artistically unpreconceived way the real conditions of contemporary society, construction, and culture.

That they have found Rome, art history, and unmodern moderns such as Lutyens helpful has confused even admirers. In some ways it would have been better if they hadn't written about it. They might never have been credited with unleashing Postmodernism, a charge comparable to calling Thomas Edison the father of disco...”
