Since 1976, Sanders Associates Architects (SAA) has built a reputation with our strong commitment to design excellence. SAA offers an alternative to either the sole practitioner or the large corporate firm, merging individual creativity and collaborative team work. Since the range and size of our work is very diverse, we specialize in architecture that is right for the user, right for the time, and right for the place. We are a proven team united by the commitment to our clients’ unique mission. Our team is committed to creating projects of pertinence and depth. Our collaborative team is fully involved and in charge of every aspect of each project. We are architects who listen. We are able to work in diverse situations and with diverse clients because we are good listeners and keen observers. We believe that integrity, and therefore beauty, derives from usefulness and the expressive power of the structure itself and the history embedded in it. Inherent to many new facilities is the integration of high-performance sustainable design features. Our team can develop these project goals and concepts using LEED criteria as a performance metric. We recommend the use of proven technologies that have a track record of both cost savings and long-term functionality to mitigate future energy costs.
