Welcome to WAKE, where innovation and sustainability converge in architectural practice.
Driven by an unwavering commitment to excellence in building science and the seamless integration of cutting-edge technologies, WAKE remains steadfast at the forefront of architectural innovation with each project we undertake.
Our "active participation" ethos propels us to challenge conventional boundaries and redefine industry standards. As a comprehensive studio practice helmed by Nathan E. Minett, RA, we unite design, architecture, building science, and project management under one roof.
With a diverse portfolio encompassing a myriad of project types and scales – from multi-family residential developments to commercial complexes and retail spaces – our innovative approach has seen us transform urban landscapes and revitalize community spaces with aplomb.
At WAKE, we're more than just early adopters of new technologies and methodologies. We're guardians of sustainability and excellence, prioritizing building science and leveraging current technologies to set new benchmarks in architectural practice.
As we forge ahead, shaping tomorrow's built environment, we extend an invitation to join us on this journey toward a more sustainable and technologically advanced future in architecture.

It's essential to find someone you trust when dealing with the built environment and seeking design services. Equally, we must collaborate with clients who value the high-quality services we offer and understand the benefits of working with someone who prioritizes design sensibilities in conjunction with your project's functional requirements from start to finish. It's also essential that your project is of a size and stylistic fit for the firm at a cost-effective price for you.
To determine whether your project might be a good fit for the studio, please briefly describe the scope, timing, location, and other relevant details in the form. If we can help, WAKE will reply with some additional information to get us started, including scheduling a consultation to review the project in detail.

To better tell our story, relate to our clients, and express our ideas, architects sketch, write, and explore the built environment through various mediums. Hopefully, these unmediated experiences bring us closer to the people we interact with on a personal and professional level while providing a platform for our employees to explore, share, and develop.
We hope you enjoy these sketches, thoughts, words, and talks which range from the professional to the personal as we observe and interact with the built world around us.
*and sometimes when we’re unable to think or express ourselves, we simply draw our hand.
