HEART AND SOUL AT WORK

SRBL is a customer intimate, medium size architectural firm. We specialize in three primary markets; the design of recreational facilities, municipal buildings, and libraries.

We've built the business on rock solid relationships...and rock solid work. We listen very carefully to what our clients want.

We learn as much as we can about a client's operation. We collaborate. We maximize the budget. We keep listening. We never sacrifice function. We never short change the details. Only then can we develop designs that truly meet a client's program...and deliver exceptional work.

Then, we go one step further. We work closely with the contractors to foster a true win-win-win relationship. Construction documents are extremely clear and precise. More thorough and better coordinated than most. Many contractors say they're among the best in the business. We enjoy a healthy respect for contractors and their contributions to the project. But if there's an issue, we don't hesitate to fight for our clients. Most architecture firms don't work like this, but it's the only way we know.

The SRBL Team
The SRBL Architects staff is crucial to its success. Everyone here embraces the collaborative, client-centered way we do business. We all get our hands dirty. We all have a "whatever it takes" mindset to do the best for our clients. Internally, we're a true team. Here there is a warm, collegial, supportive, family-like atmosphere. We've learned over the years that when we treat each other this way, everyone wins. Especially the client.

We're fiercely loyal to our clients
During a meeting regarding the development of a new police station, the SRBL team heard that the Village was concerned with a neighbor who was unhappy with the proximity of the station to her home. The next day, the SRBL team, with drawings in hand, went out to meet her. They took her through the plans and before SRBL left, they had a happy neighbor and new supporter of the project.
