Architecture creates the environment in which community happens. Going back to the ancient writers on Architecture there is an understanding that internal, personal experience and external Nature influence and respond to each other. Turning this dynamic towards a positive, healthy outcome is the goal of Pause Design Group.

With the tremendous power that the Age of Oil has given us, we have transformed the face of the planet but are only just discovering how this changed planet is changing ourselves. We are waking up to the dangers we have created and to the good that we can do.

Working together, as a community of clients and designers, we strive to make this world a better place than we found it. Through our deeper understanding of materials and design strategies we can construct buildings that make our lives physically healthier and emotionally more satisfying. We can make our built environments richer and more comfortable, while consuming fewer and fewer resources.

Side by side with our clients we chart a course that leads us to a new place, one that none of us has been to before but that, once we arrive there, feels like home.
