Lately my thoughts have been focused on how to improve upon running a design firm. What are the lessons I have learned from starting a firm, working for other people, and serving residential clients over the past 10 years? What are my design values and how can I attract clients that share these values? It is predictable.

With no clients and no money, we launched the firm as a sole proprietorship; Annmarie McCarthy, Architect. Slowly, we grew the firm and in 2002, with my license in hand, we incorporated as McCarthy LePage Architects, PC. We knew from day one that we needed a way to differentiate ourselves from the many other local firms.

Architects Tales

Blog Story No. Up until that time, architects seldom faced law suits by their clients or by third parties due to a set of legal barriers put in place long ago by English common law. They feared the possibility of unlimited litigation by clients who could sue them into econmic oblivion. It is hard to say when the crisis began.

In the previous blog about transportation in Rotterdam I touched on Rotterdam's devastating bombing in a Nazi Germany air raid that turned much of historic Rotterdam into rubble and cost over 700 lives in a single night and how the city planners have turned this tragedy into an opportunity of re-invention and development that came in various phases.

It was very interesting that many of them had similar questions to those I receive every day from the licensed architects who follow this blog. Others wanted to know about how to start their own firms. Should non-architects be permitted to use the term “architect”? Some were concerned about finding a job.

We received our permit at the end of October of last year so I know what you’re thinking … why haven’t you started construction? One of the items we spent time thinking about was how the client would age in place at this house. Clients love to be able to see the models. and I love apple computers.

There is no doubt that our clients love them, but that’s not the only reason why we build them. Clients respond to these models in a very different way than when we just show them 3-dimensional computer images of their projects. Robert Rockefeller Bob, my first post on your blog.

Just interviewed a design-centered firm on my site which I’ll post soon and two of the three principles said they rarely design…rarely do architecture at all. After weeks of working on a house addition design, making changes upon changes to satisfy the wife, I was told I should already have the permit drawings done.
