Our Approach

We are industry experts who bring knowledge grounded in understanding our client’s needs through our hands-on collaborative design process which identifies project specific goals, challenges and opportunities, resulting in creative design solutions. 

This design process is adaptable to specific client needs and is organized into five key steps:

We typically approach projects in three phases which includes:


Our Culture

We have intentionally established an open, team-based culture that encourages both individual initiative and team collaboration. Provost Studio is a collaborative group of design professionals from diverse creative fields including architecture, interior design, branding, graphic design, exhibit design, product design, theater and film.  With this rich brain trust of perspective and experience, our work is strategic and idea-driven with no stylistic approach to our practice. In our world, the best idea wins and egos don’t get in our way of creating exceptional visual and multi-sensory solutions for our clients. 


Our Community Commitment

Provost Studio isn’t just about doing great work for clients – we believe in giving back to the communities where we live, work and play. In fact, involvement in our communities is one of our core values. We engage in many ways by sharing our time, talent and resources. This includes pro-bono work, charitable donations and even setting aside a day each year to participate in a firm-wide volunteering day with a partnering organization. 

We know we grow stronger as a firm, and as individuals, when we are engaged in programs that give back not only to the design world, but our own hometowns and communities.

THE SPILLMAN FOUNDATION

OUR HISTORY
The Spilman Foundation was established by architectural designer, Peter Provost, and born from an idea to expand design education outreach to primary school-aged children.  As a result, the Spilman Foundation established the Architecture Design Camp, a project-based, creative day camp for 6th, 7th and 8th grade students using architecture as a means to learn STEM education initiatives.

OUR MISSION
To support STEM learning initiatives through architectural design education.
