Our firm's philosophy is simple: a successful project requires informed decision-making. The success of our projects is based on our clients making informed decisions. We spend time at the beginning of the design process to answer questions to build a smart budget and smart pro forma. This forms the basis of our design process on all of our projects. EM Architecture has almost 30 years of experience implementing successful projects for our clients in Portland, Hood River, Southwest Washington and beyond. We base our solutions on the following principles: sound business and marketing footing appropriate to the sense of place + use, and timeless in design sustainable in the broadest terms of it's place; vernacular - locally oriented in materials + construction processes
