Since 1962, F&S Partners has combined innovative design with attention to technical detail and personal service from the firm's principals to create building designs that foster a sense of community and enhance quality of life.
In June 2009, F&S Partners merged with SmithGroup, the oldest continually operating architecture and engineering firm in the U.S., and a national leader in sustainable, environmentally intelligent design.
