David Preston Allard established the firm in 1995 with a focus on providing comprehensive programming, design, and planning services for clients interested in building projects of enduring quality. Michael Ward joined Allard Architects in 1998 and was named partner in 2001. In 2007, the firm was renamed Allard Ward Architects, LLC.We believe architecture is a complex and demanding discipline requiring analytical insight, technical skill, open-mindedness and creativity. We apply innovative thinking and a comprehensive working approach to achieve unique solutions to meet specific client needs. High quality design is essential, of course, but we feel it is fundamentally important to address the whole array of issues that clients bring to projects. We are always anxious to meet clients who wish to collaborate in a process of building work of enduring quality.We have eight principles that undergird our work. They are laid out in the project section, and we hope they illustrate both the design talent and the thoughtfulness we bring to all our projects.
