OZARK MODERNISM


‘Place’ plays an important role in how we derive meaning in our practice. Given that most of our work is in the general region of the Ozark mountains, we seek to define a particular present-day aesthetic and approach we call Ozark Modernism. The paradoxes of the modern Ozarks –rural and the urban, the old and the new, the raw and the refined— provide the the source material for our practice. The Ozark Modernist aesthetic and design philosophy strives for architecture that is connected to its surroundings both aesthetically and culturally while also being deeply connected to the client’s story.
