Architects in the office

Practice

We are a diverse team of designers, builders and researchers who work together within the refurbished spaces of a 19th C brick warehouse that house our studio and workshop in New Haven’s 9th Square.

Approach

We understand our work to be the creation and repair of buildings and landscapes. We acknowledge our role as stewards of both natural resources and human capacity. Through a diverse array of projects, working with a range of clients and collaborators, we aim to strengthen and nurture urban and rural communities and the landscapes they inhabit, while celebrating the individual human experiences that form and enrich them. JIG Design Build is our fabrication and construction subsidiary at GOA. JIG’s technical staff and fabrication facilities play an integral role in our design process, informing our professional architectural services and supplementing and supporting the work of the builders and consultants with whom we collaborate. “Built by JIG” means beautiful detail and fine workmanship and is the mark of exceptional buildings, structures, furniture, and other constructed elements that we build ourselves at GOA.

Studio

Our designers, architects, builders, and researchers are passionate and joyful in their work, rigorous and reliable in their collaborations, and committed to the principles of social equity and environmental preservation that guide our practice. We strive to make our studio and fabrication workshop a convivial and respectful environment as well as a beautiful and inspiring space in which to dream and invent.
