Our practice connects communities and is committed to the stewardship of place, people, and the environment.
About us
With our origins in Oregon, attention to craft and beauty is elemental to the ZGF culture. A deep respect for the built environment evolved from reverence for the surrounding natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest landscape and a commitment to stewardship of the natural environment. Rather than reflecting a signature style, our work is derived from the particulars of the climate, context, and the human experience. The instinct to build community, making places where people come together for a common purpose, is central to our work. Evolving from a single office with strong regional roots to a firm with seven offices across North America and 750+ staff, ZGF's national reputation was honored with the American Institute of Architects' Architecture Firm Award, recognizing the firm’s “high standards, humanistic concerns, and unique ability to capture the spirit of a place and the aspirations of its inhabitants.”

Amazon's expertise in curating the user experience influenced the design of its HQ2 at Met Park, where a rich public art program engages the senses and sparks curiosity. Suspended above the Events Reception desk in the double-height lobby, a sculpture by Kirsten Hassenfeld composes recycled objects into a cascading ode to Arlington’s history. ZGF sat down with Kirsten to explore the making of “Cherry Smash”. https://bit.ly/3XkBoWL
