KDF Architecture

Founded in 1973, KDF is an award winning design firm that is committed to providing great design. Working in both the Northwest and Internationally, KDF excels in healthcare, cultural, educational, and residential projects. More than just an award winning firm, we are a team. We play together, work late together, teach each other, learn from each o... ther, and most importantly work well together. The phrase "Good Design is a Successful Collaboration" reflects our belief that it takes a community of people to identify, develop, and implement an innovative solution. Following a process of exploration and discovery, the community blends ideas about place, light, texture, and form with the functional requirements of the program. The community then uses their combined experience and evidence-based research as the metric to sort and refine their design. We believe that Architects make great advocates and activists. To that end, we encourage our staff to get involved and use their insights, training, and experience to shape our communities. Taking leadership roles in community organizations, non-profits, and professional organizations, our staff is actively engaged in improving the quality of our lives. Just as we take great pride in helping to shape our community, we believe that great design takes the involvement of a community. A community of end-users, clients, designers, engineers, and contractors who share a vision and are driven to find, develop, and build successful solutions. Some of our recent community projects include:Read More
