WHO WE AREOver the course of our nearly 40 year history, OPN has grown from a handful of designers practicing ina single studio to nearly 120 talented individuals working in four offices in Cedar Rapids,Des Moines, and Iowa City, Iowa, and Madison, Wisconsin. As a comprehensive architectural, landscape,and interior design firm, OPN Architect's solution-based process and approach is informed by data androoted in a fundamental belief that detail and rigor inform every design decision. We thrive in challengingsituations because our ability to build relationships between people, decisions, and information is centralto our success.HOW WE WORKWe collaborate. We camp out in teaming rooms during intensive periods of research and design. We document our ideas with layers of trace paper, sticky notes, photos and boards, and workshop ideas together during weekly design critiques. We understand that physical space can foster or inhibit collaboration and innovation, and we believe passionately that success lies in bringing people and perspectives together.WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENTResponsiveness, responsibility, and commitment to open dialogue are our most important attributes,and we believe these commitments are the reason for our high percentage of repeat clients.
