The architectural and urban design work of Clemmons Architecture consistently strives to meet two main goals with each project. First, we attempt to understand and resolve the particular problem of the project. This can be creating an urban housing community that complements contemporary lifestyles or envisioning an enlarged venue for a local arts organization that successfully projects its image.

Our second goal is to explore the potential of each project for its ability to promote a sense of community within its local environment. It is our belief that just as successful human organizations are composed of purposeful individuals who share common principles, successful communities are composed of singular architectural projects that together create a larger whole. So with each house we attempt to reinforce the local neighborhood, and with each commercial project to enhance the local public life.

Consistent with our goals, most of the firm’s work consists of urban infill projects and renovations of and additions to existing buildings and urban infill projects. The renovation projects have ranged in scale from modest single-family homes to large-scale commercial buildings, and have included both strict historic preservation projects as well as contemporary remodels. The infill projects vary from townhouses to private schools.
