High Touch.

It's not by accident that Gilfillan Callahan Nelson Architects has a near-perfect continuum of client retention. Our goal isn't to have the most clients, but instead, the best. We firmly believe that our high touch continues to make the difference. High touch, to us, means principal involvement in every step of your project--from start-to-finish.

High Performance.

Potential clients often ask us about our philosophy regarding new concepts like "green" projects and "sustainable design." We smile, because all along we have been calling this "high performance" before these terms were even in vogue. We design efficient and effective public spaces for learning and interaction. We work with the best consultants and engineers to assure that the systems we design are energy efficient and earth-friendly.

Outcomes Based.

At the end of the evening, when we shut off our computers and desk lamps, we ask ourselves this one frank question: "What progress did we make today on your project?" If the answer is none, the lamp and computer gets turned back on. At Gilfillan Callahan Nelson Architects, we're all about the tangible outcomes. While we enjoy our role as architectural designers, we well understand what pays the bills around here: successful outcomes to your projects.
