At TMA Architects, we pride ourselves on using more than one material on the exterior of the buildings we design. This variation of materials serves to bring a larger building down to a more approachable and welcoming human scale.
In addition, we use all natural exterior materials. Whether it is stone, brick, wood, metal, or glass, the textures of the materials serve to create interest and embellishment, while their natural tones create the color scheme.
Sometimes we lean into subtle, tonal variations; other times, we celebrate high-contrast combinations. By letting natural materials dictate the palette, we feel it brings out the true glory of a building’s beauty.
