Openspace Architecture

Founded in 1998 by Principal Don Gurney and Associate Eric Pettit, Openspace Architecture has grown into a full-service design studio and is home to a collaborative team of architects and designers who share a passion for design excellence. For the past 22 years, OSA has specialized in designing custom family and resort residential homes— a result of Don’s love of materials and timber frame construction, as well as his desire to work with the end user.

 

Don leads a team grounded in the values of contemporary design, who take a holistic yet exacting approach to projects. We have a deep commitment to the definitive architectural principles of space, light and proportion and strive to create work that does not revolve around a single style or trend, but is defined by the common experiences of warmth, timelessness, elegance, and quality. The results are graceful, refined spaces that marry characteristics of classic architecture with an aesthetic that is at once contemporary and distinguished.

 

The client’s vision and unique site characteristics guide our design direction, and although our primary task is to provide shelter, we believe in the ability to transcend the physical and connect with people emotionally. From the initial concept phases, we develop each design into a fully coordinated 3D model complete with mechanical, structural, architectural, and interior components. Their integrated design process allows for complete coordination between all building systems and enables us to resolve complex challenges prior to construction.

 

Beyond the expected, Openspace Architecture creates work that is essentially memorable. Defined by outstanding quality, each project becomes an expression of its inhabitants, the environment and the spaces in between. At Openspace Architecture we believe that extraordinary design feels as though it was simply meant to be
