Preview: Team 16 – Architects under the project stage each one leads

CARNE & HOLLIS ARCHITECTS · THE STUDIO

Five of us, and one leads each stage of your project.

A small practice working mostly on houses, barns and chapels in the valley. You meet all of us at the first visit, and whoever leads a stage hands it over in person to whoever leads the next.
