National Park. That’s a legacy they want to continue. “We continue to be inspired by that mountain-scape,” Kevin says, “but we want to continue producing architecture that’s not ubiquitous, that is new and creative and powerful. We have some projects out there right now that I think we’re meeting that challenge.” “We’re working on some extremely significant projects,” he adds, “both within the city and outside the city. We’re doing a lot of really fun stuff. We’re doing the kind of projects that get us excited to wake up in the morning and come to work.” Again, Kevin reiterates that they are working in a variety of sectors, on projects ranging greatly in size and scope, but he says the constant in the work is the “imprint” they are making. “We’re doing the kind of projects that leave a meaningful imprint,” he says. “We’re doing work that creates a connection between people and place. That’s what drives us. On all the projects we’re doing, our goal is to create an extraordinary environment that ‘elevates the everyday.’ That’s what we tell all of our clients, and that’s truly what we try to achieve every single time.” Moving forward, _SA will continue to strive to “elevate the everyday,” even and especially as the firm grows. As for what form that growth will take, Kevin admits he’s not sure yet. “Ultimately, no one really knows what the future holds,” he says. “What we do know is that it’s really important to be true to our values and be true to our history.” “So where are we going? From my perspective, I want to see this firm become the world’s most sought-after architecture and design firm. Perhaps that’s an audacious goal – but if you don’t have goals, then what are you doing? You’re standing in place, in my opinion.” “So how are we going to get there? Well, I think the potential lies within our team. I’m really inspired by the team that we have. I think we have a great core group that can do basically anything. I think we have a team that can take on any project. I think we have what it takes to go anywhere we want to go.” STURGESS ARCHITECTURE
