Office
TALLER was founded in opposition to complacent design. We work in pursuit of a deliberate architecture. An architecture of intervention; an active architecture to advance the quality our collective built environment. Given the ubiquity of our built surroundings, this requires working at all scales with equal fervor: from interior remodels to large-scale developments. In an increasingly commoditized and segmented sector, this also requires that we expand our traditional understanding of the role of the Architect. As such, we bring together expertise in various areas of the building process, exploring alternative methods of practice to increase our impact across the entire value chain of project delivery.
Services
TALLER provides a broad range of services tailored to help you leverage our expertise in your own building projects, no matter what size or in what stage of development they may be.
