Gresham and Beach - RESPONSIVE TO THEIR COMMUNITY AND REGIONAL DESIGN VALUES - architectural firm
Buildings should maintain a sense of belonging. This is not so much an issue of style as it is a matter of a design that ‘fits” its location. How does it relate to its immediate location and how does it signify by its design a regional character? Buildings that look good in one part of the country may look out of place in another.
A goal of each new project should be to make it comfortably fit its surroundings. The new structure should be an enhancement of what previously has been built. Pomposity and self-reference should be avoided.
Propriety is a virtue that we strive to pursue in all projects. We constantly evaluate this goal in reference to the need for fresh, new imagery that is often a guiding objective of many owners. Harmony and imagination we view as companion elements in any successful design.
Gresham and Beach - THOUGHTFULLY HUMAN - architectural firm
The human dimension in design is fundamental to its success. Image, propriety and ambience are all factors in architectural programming creating a building that has great human appeal. Good buildings are visually rewarding and satisfy our human need for variety, curiosity and comfort.
Many factors affect the humanness of any building. There is human scale or the relationship of building design and mass to the individual. There should be a felicitous relationship between the building and the individual person. The building should provide visual enjoyment and interplay that invites one's curiosity with color, textures, shade and shadow.
Structures that possess these qualities are immensely rewarding and satisfying. Moreover, they do not tire and remain visually relevant. They add value to property and can become elements that should be preserved and maintained for future satisfaction, as is found in many older structures that are today treasured for their beauty and detail.

We live in an age of increasing change and innovation. New technologies, both hi-tech and low-tech, force many architectural programming changes.
