2010.04.24: PAF Bearden Place
Competition Submissions
PAF has submitted two entries in the Bearden Place Competition, a
design competition sponsored by the AIA Minnesota and the Builder's
Association of the Twin Cities. The competition addresses infill
lots in North Minneapolis, and looks to develop an affordable,
sustainable and successful live-work housing units that can help
revitalize this historically significant part of the city. After
spending some time working on the design, we decided we had too many
ideas for a single submission. To see our submissions in greater
detail, you can view them on the 'Ideas'
page. We'd love to hear what you think.
2010.04.23: PAF at the Living
Green Expo May 1st and 2nd
PAF Architecture will be at the Living Green Expo at the
Minnesota State Fair Grandstand May 1st and 2nd. We are looking
forward to discussing environmental responsibility and the role that
architects play in ethical and sustainable design. For more
information about the expo, feel free to visit http://livinggreenexpo.mn.
We hope to see you there!
2010.03.02: Thanks
Thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth at the home
show! It was great to have a chance to talk to so many people
about their projects, and to have the opportunity to explain the value
we bring to the process. We are looking forward to scheduling
some consultation meetings in the near future, and wish everyone the
best of luck on their projects!
2010.02.20: New Website!
Please take a look around the new website and let us know what
you think. We have redesigned the site to more fully encompass
the work done by both Patrick and Carl. One addition to the
navigation is the 'Ideas' page- we view it as
a collection of things we've done in our spare time, both related to
design and general interest. We hope you enjoy what we have
presented, and if anything piques your interest, please feel free to
let us know.
2010.02.05: PAF Architecture
at the Home and Garden Show
PAF Architecture will be at the Home and Garden Show, February
24-28th. The Home and Garden Show is a great opportunity for us
to talk to people about the potential of their projects, and what value
an architect can bring into their project- whether they choose to work
with us or someone else. So if you're in the area, stop by and
say hi! If we don't have anyone to talk to, the days can get a
little long.
2010.01.12: New Office Location!
PAF Architecture is now located at 310 Groveland Avenue, near the
Walker Art Center, and we are thoroughly enjoying it.
2010.01.01: New Year, New and More Powerful Firm.
After working independently and collaborating from separate locations,
Patrick Freet and Carl Olson have joined forces. We are both
excited about the possibilities and potential of this
merger, and know our individual talents and passions will provide a new
level of service for our clients. We will continue to operate as
PAF Architecture in the short term, but will be rebranding the firm
soon to more fully encompass our services.
