We shared our work at the conference around the idea of habitation and harmony, but for us it felt less like a presentation and more like a reflection on where we practice and why we practice the way we do.
Working in the mountains means constantly negotiating terrain, people, resources, and time. Nothing is straightforward, and habitation here is not a fixed type — it is something that keeps adapting with life, climate, and circumstance. That reality, in many ways, shapes our approach to work.
The discussion that followed was probing and genuinely engaging. It made us pause and think more deeply about the nature of practice, research, and informed experimentation, and reinforced our understanding of our responsibilities and the larger life around architecture, not just the building itself.
Conversations like these stay with you. They don’t end on stage — they continue in how you question your own work afterwards.
Thank you for inviting us into such thoughtful conversations.
Grateful to listen, share, and learn from inspiring practitioners from across the country.
