Renowned for refined residential architecture, SRW is also known for specialized commercial and hospitality projects that are informed by the firm’s residential philosophy and expertise. Energy efficiency, care for the environment, enjoyment, and dependability over the course of many generations guide the design process regardless of style, location, or scope.

Reflected in each commission is the firm’s commitment to architectural character and an understanding of how people aspire to live their lives. Appreciation for SRW’s practical and humanist approach is underscored by a significant number of clients who return for additional projects. Shope Reno Wharton is regularly acknowledged in the press and has been a frequent recipient of Architecture Digest’s AD100 Award.
