Dismas House

"What I really loved about this project was the planning, the way it fit on the site, the massing, the way it was opening and welcoming but also protected. You need it to be both and from that exterior view and the way we came in on the backside really felt enveloping to me."

Alloy at Tech Hill

"The design approach of the stepping portion of this project was exceptional in massing and detailing. The articulation of the facade screening and the sawtooth modular massing behind brings a repetitive composition that is delightfully tectonic. "

"They demand of themselves a quality design product and understand how beneficial a partnering relationship with the owner can be. Each of the individuals at EOA with whom my staff has worked, tries to exceed our ambitious expectations. "

Belmont University

"Your team has provided outstanding architectural and interior design services for Belmont as you have created a true living/learning university community both within the 5 residence halls you have designed for us and the outdoors spaces you created by your thoughtful master plan locating all five of those projects. EOA has showed the true power of working collaboratively with our staff, student leaders, the contractors and even the neighbors when we needed your assistance in community meetings."

Bridges for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing

"Your team did a phenomenal job of helping us put our vision on paper, when we could barely articulate it, and helped us make it a completely stunning reality. "

Former President & CEO

Providence Church

"EOA communicated clearly throughout the process as there were inevitable changes and adjustments along the way. We always felt informed and in the loop. More than that, we felt cared for and important as a client."

Standard Assembly

"The Standard Assembly seamlessly integrates into the local maker and artist community, celebrating both creativity and industrial heritage. The jury was drawn to the exterior cladding such as the large steel-framed windows and locally-sourced industrial materials creating a facade characterized by sliding planes and a pixelated mosaic. As a housing project, it offers admirable integration of outdoor amenities such as a ‘living alley,’ green space, and active park with interior public space to enhance community interaction"

The Black House

"The Black House seamlessly integrates sustainable methods while minimizing impact on the surrounding environment in the rural Tennessee hillside. The juxtaposition of the dark exterior with the variety of materials on the interior gives a strong design aesthetic that has a timeless look and feel. The strong connection between the interior and exterior spaces creates a harmonious flow that enhances the living experience and will certainly serve the client well as they use this as their forever home.
