Architecture

Our goal is not to simply design
buildings, but to design spaces that
foster and strengthen communities.

We believe architecture is inherently more than
building construction. It is the amalgamation of
several disciplines brought together in an effort
to create valuable and rewarding experienc-
es for the people who occupy the space. With
more that 40 years of design and construction
experience, CJS provides clients with archi-
tectural services that translate their objectives,
ideas and schedules into a cohesive built envi-
ronment they are proud of.

Interior Design Our creative process is based on a foundation of
shared experience and sensitivity to the unique
aspects of each project.

Our design philosophy is firmly grounded in the be-
lief that a successful interior is one that adds lasting
value and beauty. The right design will result in a
unique identity and is achieved by developing and
integrating all distinctive elements of each project.
We are passionate about what we do and advo-
cates of strong and innovative design, allowing us
to forge ahead of industry trends and marketplace
styles. Our aesthetic goal has always remained
singular in that we create appropriate, classic and
timeless interiors.

Sustainability
Consulting

We view sustainable design as an opportunity to
thoughtfully integrate buildings into their specif-
ic sites with minimal or no impact upon the local
ecosystem.

Many professionals on staff are well versed with
green practices and are motivated to utilize their
knowledge with each design problem presented.
Consultants that specialize in the field of sustain-
ability collaborate with our designers to further
increase the lifespan of the building and decrease
its overall energy consumption. Several of our large
scale projects have achieved LEED certification,
including The Strong National Museum of Play
and University Village Townhouses located on the
SUNY Fredonia campus.

Visualization

Our clients require representations of their
projects that can be understood by the widest
audience possible and also stand out in a me-
dia driven society.

We understand how to convey design intent
through visuals that are graphically appealing
and informative. Our staff is well-versed in the
latest, cutting-edge rendering software and
techniques, allowing us to provide visualization
materials of any scope, type and intent our cli-
ents require.
