The studio
Terry & Terry Architecture prides itself on its ability to combine innovative architectural theory and practice. The partners, Alexander and Ivan Terry, each have over seventeen
years of experience, offering both design concepts and professional production services in architecture.
The partnership has experience with a wide variety of projects, including the design of single family and multi - family housing, retail, and office space; tenant improvement; and urban design. We have extensive, unique experience with building construction and fabrication that has enabled us to acquire and refine a first-hand knowledge of the relationship between concept, construction and project realization.
The partnership has explored other design concepts in urban design in collaborative efforts with other design professionals. In an attempt to improve the built environment, it has engaged in investigations of several concepts in future infrastructures that integrate architecture and planning.
