Taalman Architecture is a creative collaborator with partners, clients, and communities. All of who have active roles in conceptualizing a successful project. Our process of collaboration is inclusive and tailored to each unique endeavor.

Our experience engages one with space. We build relationships by defining the area between people and their environments—interior and exterior, habitat and landscape, architecture and art. Architecture is the dialog between people, ideas and space.

We seamlessly integrate material building elements into systems that become spaces embedded in their environments. Through our solutions we’re committed to developing sustainably minded principals. Taalman Architecture's extensive research into building technology and systems—through academic review contexts and applied prototypes—provides a feedback loop for furthering development of these principals. Our research into pre-site fabricated building technologies led to the development of our award winning IT House system (AIA LA Merit Award, Sunset Western Home Award). Currently Taalman Architecture is designing houses, classrooms and temporary structures that are both economical and sustainable utilizing this system. 

Starting from our earliest collaboration with artists during the Dia: Beacon Museum to the Small Skyscraper with Chris Burden to our Trespassing: Houses x Artists project, Taalman Architecture has collaborated extensively with artists and arts institutions, demonstrating a commitment to the pursuit of a thriving relationship between art and architecture. Through these practices the unique ability of customizing the design process to facilitate conceptual solutions is refined.
