Well designed places

become lives well lived.

Living well is what Cline strives for. It’s what places should do for people. What our clients give to their communities. What happens when form becomes a feeling — and our designs achieve something genuinely human.

Artfully Balanced Ambitions

Transforming communities and improving lives is a continual goal in our work, and it can only be accomplished by carefully balancing all of our clients’ considerations. It’s why we collaborate at every turn, why we constantly ask ourselves if there’s a more impactful approach we can take, and why harmony is an achievement we intentionally pursue in all of our designs.

Dreaming by Doing

The places we create for our clients, the culture we build for our firm, and the lives we improve in the process are all interconnected — not just by what we design but by everything we do together. From the organizations we support, to the technologies we embrace and the projects we deliver, we’re always chasing a better future state.
