Larkspur & Reed began as two people sharing a drafting table and one rule: engineering joins the project on day one, not after the design is fixed. That habit is why the structure fits the rooms it holds, and why the fee rarely surprises anyone. The office is bigger now. The table is still there.
The team
Questions that wait on one busy principal stall your project. Ours have names.
Three people you'll actually talk to, from first sketch to final site visit.
Corinne Larkspur
Principal, architecture
Leads design on every civic project. She walks the site before drawing a line, and says no to a program the budget can't carry.
Abel Reed
Principal, structural engineering
Runs the engineering side and the weekly fee sheet. When a number moves, he's usually the one who calls to explain why.
Tessa Vellacourt
Project manager
Keeps the RFI log and the schedule. Contractors know her as the person who answers by the date she gave.
