Ames Peterson - International Architecture

Shane Ames and Shawn Peterson team up to deliver vastly unique buildings and environments. Our design process is developed by weaving modern ideas with historical influences while attaining your wants and desires. We start with an axial design approach using line of sight, balance or symmetry and good taste, to create the feeling desired. A European background and love for extensive worldwide travel and photography, combined with a penchant for the historical details from the Ancient Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Byzantine and Renaissance architectural styles influence our designs. Combining our unique backgrounds and approach with our clients' ideas and concepts leads to a hint of elegance that emanates and is not just seen “they just feel good without knowing why”. All architectural styles including contemporary can be approached in this fashion to create a timeless and classic piece of functional architecture to view, reside or work within. We have been blessed to have our designs reach globally gracing 6 continents, 30 countries and domestically to over 40 US states.
