Seattle, United States
SMR Architects is a Seattle-based full-service architecture firm founded in 1977. The company specializes in affordable housing, historic preservation, and sustainable design. Earlier this year, SMR acquired Tonkin Architecture and is in the process of integrating their staff into the firm, expecting completion by the end of 2021.
SMR Architects sets itself apart with its focus on creating living spaces that enrich and interact with the communities. The firm's collaborative and creative problem-solving approach, coupled with its sustainable philosophy, emphasizes serving both clients and the community, always prioritizing the interests of people. Furthermore, the company's commitment to community engagement and volunteering for non-profit organizations demonstrates its dedication to social responsibility.
The company's work has received accolades, including the AIA/HUD Secretary’s “Creating Community Connection” Award at the 2017 American Institute of Architects (AIA) National Convention for Plaza Roberto Maestas, and the Friend of Housing Award from the Washington State Housing Finance Commission for exceptional contributions to creating and supporting affordable housing in the state.
With a strong track record in affordable housing design and a recent expansion through the Tonkin Architecture acquisition, SMR Architects appears to be well-positioned for continued growth and impact in the architectural and housing sectors.
