Hello.  I am Daphne Dodds Cothren, an architect specializing in regional, green, low- to mid-rise buildings.  We—architecture is a team sport—will filter out all the noise about how to get from there, whether it be an existing building or a blank lot, to a space that really works.  We are very good at designing and managing a project because we have deep expertise in the issues and put a lot of care into the details.  Drop us a line if you are interested in having Laurel Architecture solve your building problems.
