Join Our Team

Environmental Works Community Design Center is a non-profit, community-based architectural firm providing professional architectural and planning services to non-profit organizations and underrepresented communities throughout Washington state.

We approach our work with humility, curiosity, and the belief that lasting change happens when everyone has a voice in shaping places they call home.

We design for dignity.
Our design processes and projects honor and uplift human dignity, centering the experiences and voices of those who live, work, and gather in the spaces we create.

We act for equity.
Building equitable, healthy communities requires more than good intentions; it demands advocacy, accountability, and sustained collaboration with those most affected by systemic inequities.

We work in partnership.
Under-resourced communities are equal partners in shaping the design solutions that reflect their identities, priorities, and aspirations.

We balance design and stewardship.
High-quality design considers both human and environmental needs, creating spaces that are functional, beautiful, and resilient for generations to come.
