Works Progress Architecture

Works Progress Architecture is a progressive architectural design studio with offices in Portland and Los Angeles. Carrie Strickland and William Neburka launched W.PA together in 2005. W.PA has since established a design approach rooted in clear conceptual diagrams applied across a wide spectrum of project types while responding to the unique qualities of the Northwest. W.PA’s approach walks a line between sexy and stern and echoes simplicity in the face of ever evolving complexity; a quiet amid the cacophony of the newest desires. Since 2005, W.PA has been presented with more than 30 design awards and has been lauded on a national scale for their work and contributions to design, including the AIA NW&P Emerging Firm Award in 2013, a place in Architectural Record’s Design Vanguard publication, the Sustainability in Design award from the AIA, as well as the Progressive Architecture award in 2010.
