We aspire to change the world for the better, one beautifully designed project at a time.  

We design new buildings on distinguished campuses, in vibrant downtowns and stately neighborhoods. We give old buildings a new lease on life, infusing them with energy and economic vitality whether they are historic buildings in need of careful rehabilitation or existing buildings awaiting fresh uses.

CAW Architects understands that each project is unique and must resolve design, function, and budget. We guide our clients through the complicated process of design, entitlement, and construction. Clarity of plan, sustainable materials, abundant daylight, energy efficiency, and thoughtful response to site and climate are the tools we use to craft our projects.

Our many repeat clients are a proud testament to our success in creating superbly designed projects that respond to our clients' needs.

WINNERS OF THE SANTA CLARA VALLEY AIA FIRM AWARD

In October of 2014, CAW was awarded the prestigious Santa Clara Valley American Institute of Architects’ Firm Award.  This award recognizes a firm that has consistently produced distinguished architectural design for a period of at least 20 years and that has contributed to the advancement of the profession. In addition, the award honors a firm that promotes collaboration among individuals; produces work that transcends a specific area of expertise; has a record of community service; and has developed a culture that educates and mentors the next generation of architects.

Now celebrating the firm’s 23rd year in business, Chris Wasney and Brent McClure lead the firm of 30 staff members that has evolved into a multifaceted, diverse, grassroots organization with a very energetic team and vibrant office culture. The growing diversity of projects and socially-sustainable portfolio mirrors the evolution of the firm culture from a classic sole practitioner to a collaborative, highly fluid design studio.
