Larry Perkins describes the firm's philosophy: 'While we enjoy recognition, the applause we seek is the quiet trust and satisfaction of clients and public who know that their interests have been thoughtfully served'. From its early beginnings more than 65 years ago, Perkins & Will has evolved into an international firm characterised by its ability to transform commonplace building programs into uncommon designs and to work with clients in very successful ways. Perkins & Wills portfolio of buildings is vast in quantity as well as scope, and includes schools, higher education, laboratories, healthcare, corporate, civic, residential and interiors projects, completed in 49 states and 37 countries. This monograph is a comprehensive overview of Perkins & Will's substantial body of work.
