Firm Profile

“….In reviewing and studying the works and intentional practice of Powers Brown Architecture, an old saying came to mind; “architecture does not have to be for special occasions”. Powers Brown knows this and has built a practice working in realms that are most often avoided...In some ways Powers Brown is pioneering a hybrid of critical and commercial practice, striking a balance between the two. It is a young growing firm, moving forward without the prejudice and predetermination that often narrows the field of operation. I expect Joe Powers, Jeffrey Brown and their team will set an example others will eventually follow.”
