In this blog, we'll recount the inspiring story of how our firm got started in 2020, navigating uncertainties and carving a path toward success in the dynamic world of architecture.
The story begins with a group of visionary architects (Leslie Simpson and Ryan Lee) who, despite the global upheavals of 2020, saw an opportunity to create something exceptional. Both had worked together for 20 years in the commercial world before COVID hit. Fueled by a shared passion for design and a commitment to pushing the boundaries of architectural excellence, these individuals came together to embark on a bold venture.
The timing of the firm's inception coincided with the widespread shift to remote work—a reality imposed by the global pandemic. Undeterred by physical distances, our architects embraced technology to collaborate virtually, turning challenges into opportunities. Zoom became the new drawing board, and shared digital spaces fostered creativity, ensuring that the design process continued uninterrupted.
Central to LGS's identity was the crafting of a unique vision that went beyond conventional architectural practices. A commitment to sustainability, innovative design solutions, and a client-centric approach became the pillars upon which the firm would build its reputation. This distinct vision set the stage for the projects that would follow.
Recognizing the transformative potential of technology, our architects leveraged state-of-the-art digital tools. From virtual reality simulations for design presentations to cloud-based collaboration platforms for seamless communication, technology became an integral part of the firm's modus operandi. This commitment to staying at the forefront of technological advancements positioned the firm as a pioneer in the digital age of architecture.
The tumultuous landscape of 2020 brought its fair share of uncertainties, but our firm embraced agility as a guiding principle. Swift decision-making, adaptability to changing circumstances, and a proactive approach to problem-solving became hallmarks of the firm's culture. Rather than succumbing to challenges, our architects viewed them as opportunities for growth and innovation.
Ryan and Leslie understood the importance of fostering a collaborative and inclusive culture within the firm. Regular virtual meetings, and open forums for idea exchange created an environment where every voice was valued. This sense of camaraderie not only fueled creativity but also laid the foundation for a resilient and tight-knit team. As projects took shape, the firm began to gain recognition for its commitment to quality, sustainability, and client satisfaction.
With a growing portfolio of successful projects, satisfied clients, and a team of dedicated professionals, LGS Architectural Services looks forward to the future with optimism, confident in its ability to continue shaping spaces and crafting dreams. As the firm continues to evolve, it stands as a beacon of inspiration, reminding the architectural community that even in the face of adversity, creativity and determination can shape a brighter future for the built environment.
