History
Our founding principals, Gary Martinez, AIA, and Tom Johnson, AIA, began working together in 1983, and opened their Washington DC office in 1994. The firm's early work included award-winning restoration of landmark theaters in Boston, Meridian, Mississippi and El Paso, Texas. Their successes led to commissions to create new performing arts and multi-use venues in Toronto, Las Vegas and Annapolis, and to bring new life to many of Metro Washington DC's most venerable government, commercial and residential structures--by way of dramatic additions, restoration, or both.
Mr. Martinez and Mr. Johnson play an active leadership role in all of the firm's projects, contributing to and supervising the firm's staff of 26 professionals.
