Real-world direction and architecture design since 1951

Our Hallmarks

Pragmatism

We’re diligent about providing our clients and partners with purposeful plans that take their needs, time, and budget into consideration. And we bring clear, honest direction at every step, from discovery through construction.
Mentorship

Experience is the most valuable asset we offer. By giving younger professionals an opportunity for mentorship and advancement, we reinvest expertise and watch it grow.
Family

Balancing the needs of both our home and work families helps us unite as a team and keep a healthy perspective on life.
Inclusion

Because our design decisions influence the experiences of others, we invite unique and differing perspectives. A project is inherently better when a variety of ideas and experiences are thoughtfully integrated into a space.
Trust

In this business, you have to be able to depend on your project partners. Our firm carries on a long-standing pledge to look out for our clients’ best interests. We don’t push our own agenda — we provide professional guidance with genuine care.

Facet Philosophy

Provide value.

As a well-trained team providing high-end services, we aim to be a great investment for our clients, from groundwork to grand opening and beyond.
Keep it clear.

We bring clear plans and clear heads, giving careful consideration to budget, time, quality, and design while handling the tough stuff with tact and ingenuity.
Offer guidance.

We help our clients make the best decisions for their project, navigating difficult issues independently to keep them informed, not burdened.
Be creative (and real).

We believe that spaces built for life should be full of life. So we don’t offer impractical or uninspiring plans — we deliver solutions that are both functional and creative.
Come prepared.

We look at things from every angle in order to anticipate obstacles and provide constructive solutions with clarity and confidence.
Build relationships.

Our goal is to provide not just a great build, but a great experience that leaves our clients excited to work with us again.

Providing purposeful design, inside and out.

Whether you’re looking to build, remodel, or craft an effective and inviting interior, we’re here to meet your commercial design needs with expertise and efficiency.

The firm’s design is dramatically different. As a ‘building user’ it suits our needs each and every day. This building simply works, and it works well all the time.

Nanci Schneider, Principal, Salem-Keizer Public Schools
