Patrick Jones was drawn to architecture during high school, inspired by a family friend who shared with him the schooling, training and choices that prepared her for the profession. Perhaps the most meaningful lesson she imparted was this: \u201cArchitecture is about the things you see and how you see them: First you must see the beauty, then you may use it.\u201d<\/p>\n
That lesson has informed Jones\u2019 design philosophy ever since. He began his career at boutique firms that gave him valuable insights. \u201cYou have to wear many hats since you\u2019re constantly bouncing from one project to the next,\u201d he relates. \u201cYou also have to be as comfortable behind a desk as you are in the field talking to contractors.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jones launched his firm in January 2011. His projects are neither traditional nor modern, but sophisticated and simple, suited to the lifestyles of his clients. He prides himself on the attention he devotes to understanding his clients\u2019 needs and budget, then translating those needs into new or redesigned spaces. Aesthetics and functionality go hand in hand. \u201cThe ultimate goal,\u201d the architect reflects, \u201cis to strike that balance. That\u2019s when you have a successful project.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jones received a Grand award for Contemporary Architecture from Home & Design in 2025.<\/p>\n
