About Us
The team at LEBA Architects, Inc. strives to develop architectural solutions that are socially responsive, contextually sound, and environmentally responsible. We believe truly exceptional design begins with a healthy dialog between the client and the architect and we endeavor at every opportunity to create custom-tailored solutions that meet both programmatic and budgetary requirements. We take pride in our collaborative approach to architectural design and the construction process. We work closely with our clients and contractors to ensure the design and budget are always considered at every step along the way.
If you want to know how we accomplish this, feel free to contact us – we look forward to beginning that dialog with you.
