ABOUT US

W E    A R E   S O T O

Soto is an architecture firm passionate about the design of outstanding developments in our cities. We are a small, minority-owned firm committed to diversity, sustainability and equity in our designs and throughout our practice.

As active participants in the urban environment, we embrace mixed-use developments, adaptive-reuse and modernization of existing facilities. We practice responsibly, sustainably and diligently to ensure our projects are stunning and are delivered within budget and on-time, even while often working on accelerated schedules.

​Above all, we aim to work collaboratively with our clients, consultants and community to establish a holistic vision that benefits our neighborhoods, the environment and ultimately the people who interact with the spaces we design.

OUR CORE VALUES


  1. Architecture is a passion, not a job
  2. Ego-free design excellence
  3. Good enough and easy are not in our vocabulary
  4. Our client's constraints fuel our creativity
  5. Growth and learning never stop
  6. We're building a business with a soul
