François Lévy, Architect is committed to community-based, humane architecture. The firm portfolio includes private projects which reflect their cultural and geographical context, are accessible and comprehensible to the user, relevant to their surroundings, and contribute to a sense of place rather than obeying a preconceived architectural agenda. The work's heavily site-specific orientation leads to an environmental, high-performance architecture, and good stewardship of the land. In designing for a given site, topography, vegetation, solar orientation, prevailing winds, land forms, water, and desirable views are all carefully considered.A leading authority in Vectorworks, a hybrid 2D/3D CAD and Building Information Modeling (BIM) application, I have lead software training seminars for professionals around the country for over ten years.Vectorworks beta tester.
