Reynolds Ash + Associates

Who We Are + How We Work

RA+A views the architect/client relationship as a productive collaboration of people, disciplines, perspectives and ideas. Each of our highly qualified team members bring experience and expertise, strengths and viewpoints to the development process. We all share a commitment to client satisfaction. Consequently, many of our projects are with repeat clients or referrals from past clients.

How We Work
Our multidisciplinary teams create opportunities for innovation, cost savings and sustainability. Our teams consist of architects and engineers working side by side. And our integrated program management ensures that the entire project team is coordinated from beginning to end, resulting in fewer change orders and timely project delivery within budget.

Design Philosophy/Sustainability
Our focus is increasingly on sustainable design and the use of natural and alternative materials in creating effective, efficient and innovative design solutions. The firm is an advocate of the sensible use of sustainable building materials and technologies and committed to creating uniquely comfortable living, play and working spaces that place us in harmony with our neighbors, our communities and our environment. We design structures that are compatible with the natural environment, taking advantage of the natural landscape, solar orientation, and existing adjacent land features.

Experience and Expertise
RA+A relies on our team experience and expertise to deliver the most logical, efficient, and cost effective solutions possible to your project. Our team has provided similar services for projects throughout southwest Colorado, as well as numerous projects within the United States. Each of our projects is unique. The success is always dependent on good communication with the client group and facility users. Among our employees are two LEED Accredited Professionals who provides LEED consultation and documentation.
