Drager Architecture specializes in custom residential
design around western Washington. Our experience with high-end custom homes and small custom commercial projects
sets us apart from other larger architectural firms. As a small architectural firm, you can be assured of our personal
attention to your project.
Our design philosophy
centers around three essential architectural ideas:
One - we must begin to emphasize efficient use of space allowing an increase
in the quality of the structure and materials.
Two - we must design buildings that respond creatively
to the forces that influence that design; quality of light, scale of spaces, materiality, sustainability, context
and budget.
Three - We see our clients as an integral part of
the design process. without a solid expression of their goals and vision, we cannot expect to succeed. |
These concepts come together in
our work to create timeless architecture that responds to the demands of the site, environmental forces, the client's
unique vision, the need for beauty and budget.

" In order for an architectural
concept to be successful, the essence of the big ideas must find its way to the smallest details".
"We believe that good architecture transcends its particular time of construction". |
We look forward to exploring architecture
with our current
and future clients.-
