About Us Architecture is a kind of description. Just as carefully chosen words can convey mood and character, so design elements can combine to create an evocative, unique visual image. At Darlow Christ Architects, we view each project as an opportunity to express our client's distinctive qualities in architecture that is equally distinctive. Our designs function as marketing tools, telegraphing who the client is as instantly and unmistakably as a brand name or logo. Since its inception in 1992, DCA has grown into a mid-size firm of architecture and interior design professionals. The firm is large enough to handle major commercial and institutional projects, yet small enough so that principals Peter Darlow and Catherine Christ are involved and accessible to clients. Our work is characterized by thoughtful attention to function and context, as well as sensitivity to budget, schedule, and other parameters. Whether we're creating a look for an upscale restaurant chain, designing complex interiors for a major advertising agency, or planning an addition to an important university building, we communicate the client's identity through memorable images and spaces.
