About RWADP
Roger Williams Architecture Design Photography was founded in 2004, advancing a forty-year architectural career into a diverse design firm that encompasses Williams’ various skills, interests and experiences. Architecture, design and photography are distinct disciplines; yet in this form often combine to create meaningful results.
The most common thread among them is the requirement for clear, careful observation of our environment, which enables us to understand and appreciate and positively interact with our global, community and personal surroundings.
Architecture and Interior Design
Observation of the natural condition, a person’s relationship to that condition and the unique moment in cultural and technological history, define the unique needs for peoples’ habitation. Designing with the understanding of those parameters creates vital places and spaces for living.
This view focuses the firm’s architecture exclusively on residences. Blending the universal requirements of habitation with the personal meaning of each dwelling is the most rewarding experience for an architect. Trust, competency, passion, realism: all are needed by the home dweller and the architect (and the constructor) during the intense and personal process of creating the most functional and spiritual place to live.
Williams has designed scores of homes in along the Pacific coast of the US and Japan. From that experience he has been a constant ambassador and spokesperson for American housing concepts and technology around the world.
Photography and Drawing
The process of photography and drawing results an understanding of natural and human-created beauty. Sometimes the condition is accidental or ironic, sometimes thoughtful; but it is always meaningful.
The firm’s architectural photography is unique in the field. Because Williams is an architect and designer, his understanding of architectural concept, detailing, and setting of a work of architecture is filtered through his years of knowledge of the process and an appreciation of the architect’s meaning.
World photography is a personal passion. Photography is a very individual exercise in understanding the world. The work is not only a journal of the extensive travel by Williams, but is also a trigger for seeing meaning, a universal truth or simple beauty, then sharing that experience with others.
