GWWO is an award-winning design practice dedicated to client service and quality design that is both evocative and inspirational. The firm’s designs are driven by a rigorous process focused on realizing and embodying each client’s story within the architectural expression and user experience of each building and site. This story-based design approach is enhanced by a commitment to sustainable design. The result is progressive architecture that tells a story—and achieves striking presence while remaining responsive to its site and surroundings.

GWWO works with public and private clients on cultural and educational projects throughout Maryland, the region, and the United States, including K-12, higher education, interpretive center, nature center, museum, theater, arts, library, park, and recreation facilities.
