Every South Mountain Company (SMCo) project rests on a foundation of integrated architecture, engineering, and building. This integration brings clarity and integrity to a complex process. We honor the beautiful island we call home with celebrations of place that harmonize art, science, and craft. We engage you, the client, in a collaborative and transparent process driven by your goals and aspirations, guided by our expertise and experience.
You get a beautiful, high-performance building made with you, for you
SMCo’s integrated process works uniquely well because it keeps the responsibility and accountability in just one place. It’s very direct – just SMCo and you, working in collaboration, fully aligned with each other. This central relationship makes it possible for us to offer you beauty, performance, quality, durability, comfort, security, and service – all at once.
By practicing for decades in one small region, we stay connected to our buildings and clients, learning from both. Our experience has inspired principles which guide our work and allow us to explore a variety of often surprising (and always respectful) design paths.
Our staff of 36 includes six architects (more than any other firm on Martha’s Vineyard), two engineers, two interior designers, two project leads, one shop lead, and a large team of carpenters, woodworkers, and solar installers. All of the above are supported by a strong team of administrative/management personnel. The multi-disciplinary mix gives us a tremendous range of capabilities under one roof.
A better process. A better outcome.
