Shafer Crowe Kueck | Architecture + Design is a firm of experienced architects dedicated to design excellence and exceptional client service. We create beautiful and interesting environments. Our success lies in the ability to listen and work closely with our clients to develop solutions that satisfy their unique needs. We believe that Architecture is a process, a refinement of an idea through many phases of design work. Our job is not simply to ask what is wanted, but to provide consideration of what can be. Our projects vary in size and type, but our design philosophy does not. As an intentionally small office, we ensure that each project benefits from the direct oversight of a firm principal and the collective expertise of an experienced project team. We approach each project as a new challenge, and our goal is always to strike the perfect balance between design, program, and budget. Ours is a rigorous process. For each project we strive to ensure that even the smallest of detail is addressed, and that all possible design solutions are considered. We provide a full range of architectural services including: Programming, Conceptual and Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documentation, and Construction Administration. We are the recipient of numerous awards, most recently the 2017 Highland Park Historic Preservation Award, the 2015 Chicago AIA Small Projects Award, and the Best of Houzz Design and Service Awards for 2018 and 2016 respectively.
