RIA offers competencies in architectural design and construction management:

• Siting.
• Passive solar design for efficient thermal performance.
• Underground and bermed structures.
• Intelligent environmental control using homeostatic passive devices as well as digital systems.
• Landscape design with emphasis on native species.
• Construction project management.

Design influences: Christopher Alexander, Lee Porter Butler, Hassan Fathy, John Chris Jones, Ian McHarg, David Wright, and numerous vernacular builders.

I have spent many years in the construction trades, as a contractor, as a designer/builder, and as a student of architecture and ecosystems. I also bring an understanding of digital control systems to bear on the built environment.
