LE·NI·TY

The quality or state of being mild or gentle towards others. And the defining quality of Lenity Architecture.

LENITY ARCHITECTURE IS A FULL SERVICE FIRM WITH DECADES OF EXPERIENCE AND A HIGHLY QUALIFIED STAFF TEAM. BUT WHEN ASKED WHAT SEPARATES US FROM OUR COMPETITION, WE RESPOND THAT IT’S GENUINE CARING FOR OUR CLIENTS, STAFF AND THE PEOPLE WHO ENTER THE WALLS WE HELP BUILD.

We’re all in this together and that philosophy yields relationships built on unshakable trust, respect and mutual enthusiasm for our next project together. Decades of experience have taught us that regardless of the project size or complexity, there is great reward in seeing it through as a team–shoulder to shoulder with our clients. Now, let’s build something great together.

THE SELF PROCLAIMED GEEK

To me, architecture is more about the people than the objects-those we work alongside and those whose lives are impacted through our buildings’ design. That’s what inspires me–being invested in what our design actually does for the people that

THE QUEEN BEE

I love what Lenity Architecture is all about–our team, our clients and the dedication we have towards building lasting relationships. What fortifies those relationships is the genuine caring we share for each other and the people who enter the walls we help build.

THE IDEA GUY

I learned early on from some of the most influential architects and builders in the industry that integrity was a byproduct of genuine caring. I still live and breath those values today. Walking into a building we’ve designed and seeing the smiling faces of people
