FIRM PHILOSOPHY
|
DCVL was formed by David De Celis and Amy Van Lauwe to foster an exploration of the relationship between architecture and other design disciplines. DCVL focuses on providing meaningful, innovative and comprehensive design solutions through exploration of form-making and using a collaborative and inter-disciplinary approach.
David and Amy have experience with LEED projects, but also aim to bring issues such as universal design, material transparency, net-zero energy, alternative technologies and healthy environments to all aspects of their projects. Both David and Amy are active educators and believe that this balance of academic and professional engagement provides a limitless source of inspiration for their work. |
