Modern Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in West Des Moines

“Edward and I were neighbors in Palatine, Illinois and taught architecture together at Judson College. I have the highest respect for Edward's abilities both as a practicing architect and as an architecture professor. This combination of practicing architect/professor is respected in the profession as achieved by some of the most industrious and design savvy members of our field. Edward's photos speak volumes of his design sensitivity. His drawings are likewise works of art in a profession that has lost much of its hand drawn talent in 25 years of CAD prevalence. He clearly has the design maturity to know the disciplines of restraint, light and balance, harmony, forms and textures and can apply this maturity of design to multiple venues. Working directly with Edward I learned his quality of sincere responsible work ethic and constant self improvement motivation. He has excellent people skills and is a collaborative proactive problem solver. His continued professional advancement with LEED accreditation, professorship in Iowa, and his ever expanding portfolio are testaments of his commitment to a profession which demands lifelong learning to maintain excellence. Very glad to find Edward's page here and heartily recommend him to clients seeking a conscientious architect for their next project. Best Regards, Douglas Clark, NCARB Architect San Mateo, CA”

“I have worked with Catherine on several projects over the years and find her very easy to work with. She listens to the clients needs and addresses those needs into her designs. She has an architectural background and her attention to detail shows in her designs. I would recommend her for your design needs.”
