Inspired by the Great Lakes and their true tides that ebb and flow almost undetected, SLOWTIDE.STUDIO, ARCHITECTS is founded on a deep understanding and respect for the subtle nuances present in the design and construction processes.

SLOWTIDE is an intentionally small firm and will service each unique client and project with care and accountability. The work is focused on single-family residential, boutique commercial, and multi-family projects rooted in community values, with each design reflecting the client’s perspective.

The studio promotes a workshop like environment, focusing on craft through digital and analog processes, experimentation, iteration, conversation, and collaboration. With a small firm structure, partnerships with local artisans, interior designers, consultants, and contractors will be a key element of the design process.
