There is a lot of talk in the industry right now, both in architecture and engineering, that we all come from the same accredited institutions and we all sit for the same exams, so what's the differentiator? To use a worn-out phrase, it's all about going the extra mile.
Charlie Marsden, CEO, Durrant
It's true that there are a lot of good A/E/C firms in the world. All the awards and accolades and experience certainly put Durrant among them.
But at Durrant, we learned not long into our 77-year legacy that most clients don't just need an architect, they need a team of professionals; a true partner, an unselfish advisor, a meticulous process manager, and a master communicator.
Once you install those criteria, that big group of "good" architects and engineers suddenly becomes an elite and elusive few.
At Durrant, we believe the process is just as important as the project. And so with the help of our clients, we've designed a client care process that overflows with meaningful communication, unwavering honesty and unflinching accountability.
The way we see it, our mission isn't just to design a compelling, functional, environmentally-friendly courthouse or medical facility or high school. It is also to forge the kind of client relationship that invokes complete trust and confidence, so the journey is just as enjoyable as the destination.
Partnerships and projects that advance our communties forward. A promise worthy of the name Durrant.
