Chris Rice, Partner

Christopher Rice founded the firm with the belief that if you love what you do, you will do it well. With over 25 years of experience in shore area custom residential architecture, Chris is always striving for perfection and looking for new ways to create great architecture along our many waterways. Other than spending time with his wife and four children, Chris enjoys golf and surfing.
