  Friends: Today we are pleased to announce the formation of a new practice: Dilworth Eliot Studio: de+ de+ is the framework for a new kind of practice. A practice which balances architecture, design, consulting and research; equally shared and mutually beneficial. This framework is organized around an improved model of design; a model which considers our clients collaborators and our colleagues contributors. This model recognizes that in order to control the outcome we must embrace the process, and that architecture is a value added proposition. de+ is the product of long friendships, shared ideals and common goals whose principle collaborators include; Charles Dilworth, Amy Eliot and Robert Shepherd - whom together bring comprehensive project experience along with 6 decades of experience in architecture and design. Our concentration: • Design: Architecture and Interiors at all scales. • Consult: Principal level design consultancy to institutions, colleague firms, and developers, concentrating on project strategy, implementation and entitlements. • Research: Development of new decision systems for the built environment: project delivery methodologies, systems and software development, and education.
