stan_fieldarchitecture.comfield Architecture455 Lambert Ave, CA. 94306 | t. 650.462.9554 | jess_fieldarchitecture.comField Architecture (fA) is an internationally recognized firm, the recent winner of two 56th Annual Progressive Architecture (P/A) Awards. Founded by Stan and Jess Field based on Stan's 40 years of practice, fA is a multi-generational firm dedicated to creating architecture that is congruous with the landscape. Through a visionary design of environment-specific architecture, landscape, and interiors, fA's designs blur of the place where landscape ends and building begins, creating a place of interchange between the made and the natural.Our approach to constructing in the natural environment is based on a view that we are a part of nature, rather than apart from it. Each fA design is specific to its context and site, and is born of a highly sensitive response to local ecology. Our aim is to design sustainable environments, rather than sustainable buildings alone. Sustainability in its highest capacity is based on balance, and the ability for multiple entities to coexist. The relationship of that which nature makes and that which we make must be synergetic rather than competing. Neither should conceal, mimic, or dominate the other. The character of the natural and the made should be complimentary, the integration of hard and soft delicate yet deliberate, so that each may elevate our consciousness of the other.
