Our focus is to find a ‘Common Ground’ - designing spaces where individuals from diverse backgrounds come together to exchange ideas and share experiences.
Design Philosophy
Over the last four decades, William Rawn Associates has curated a practice of listening first. It is our professional responsibility to engage the communities we serve by fostering public dialogue that informs our understanding of a building’s context, civic landscape, and social and environmental needs. Through active listening and building consensus, we pursue a contemporary vocabulary that links our designs inextricably to their settings—creating timeless, beautiful, and warm places that promote interaction, cultural accessibility, and diversity.
Our Process
We believe first and foremost in getting to know you – understanding what is most important to a client and project. Our process institutionalizes active listening, ensuring we are really understanding you as we design. Our interactive sessions facilitate consensus-building and true collaboration in order to ensure that project goals are aligned to design ideas.
Central to this process is our use of physical models. We use these models as tools rather than something pretty under glass. Our models are interactive, allowing participants to test ideas with us. Collaborators can often understand models better than drawings, thus enabling shared understanding and consensus on key decisions. This process provides much greater certainty that everyone is on the same page.
Firm History
1983
Founding a Firm
Prior to Architecture, Bill Rawn worked as a public university administrator. This experience informed the firm’s commitment to the creation of civic spaces with equal opportunities for learning, and open exchanges of ideas and beliefs.
1980s
Community in Multi-Family Housing
The practice earned national awards for the Bricklayer’s Union housing in Boston: projects that mandate creative design solutions, civic engagement, and cost rigor at the core of their success.
1994
Tanglewood: The Big Break
The success of Ozawa Hall at Tanglewood opened our practice to new project types. This was the start of many successful ‘first of their kind’ projects that delivered innovative design solutions to our clients.
1990s
A National Firm: Maintaining Local Roots
With 15 National Honor Awards from the AIA, our work and experience extend across the nation. Yet since expanding nationally three decades ago we have worked to maintain an important grounding with projects in our region.
1996
Listen First: A Firm Ethos
Our early design process introduced physical modeling that is accessible, movable, and understandable to everyone who is part of the design effort, from seasoned planning staff to community members.
2010s
Leadership in Sustainable Architecture
The firm codified our belief in integrating sustainable design solutions in our projects through becoming an early signatory of the 2030 Challenge and mandating LEED certification for 100% of our design staff.
2021
A New Collaborative Office
As the COVID-19 pandemic changed the way we work, we moved to a new collaborative office space focused on invigorating dialogue and design into the future.
Moving Beyond Inclusion to Belonging
Rawn Equity, Diversity, + Inclusion (REDI)
At William Rawn Associates, Architects it is our professional responsibility to create safe and healthy environments; it is our moral duty to contribute to the national movement to design inclusive, welcoming, and accessible spaces where all people can share common ground.
We charge ourselves and our peers to actively fight against racism, discrimination, hate, and bias in our workplace and in our communities.
We commit to move beyond words into tangible actions. Our long-term goals and initiatives on mentorship, volunteerism, and internal education can be found in the link below and on the Insights Social Justice page.
Sustainability
William Rawn Associates has a history of progressive action in sustainable design, from being one of the first signatories of the AIA’s 2030 Challenge, to requiring that 100% of design staff maintain LEED Accreditation, we have been at the forefront of the effort to halt climate change and the depletion of natural resources.
We take a holistic approach to sustainable design, recognizing that it is only successful when seamlessly interwoven into the big ideas of a project. William Rawn Associates has repeatedly been recognized by our peers for our leadership in sustainable design, and we have plans to continue our vision of carbon negativity into the future, where efforts in reducing the built environment’s emissions are at their most consequential.
