Tusick + Associates Architects (TAA) distinguishes itself from other firms by offering two levels of services: 1. Design of entire structures, including its surroundings and interiors; and optional: 2. Design integrated with construction, as managers or monitors of contractors selected by owners, or as designers/builders with contractors selected by TAA. Owners can apply either level to new structures or for renovating/remodeling of existing structures. Regardless, TAA starts each project by listening carefully to understand fully the wants and needs of owners, helping to assure that the final structure enhances their lifestyles and aesthetic values, as well as those of the surrounding community..
