OUR STORY

ISLAND OF CAPRI, BAY OF NAPLES, ITALY, 1998

Our story began in 1994 when we started designing buildings together at a five-person architectural firm in Cambridge, MA. We took it as a sign that we were subsequently employed in the same two other offices, so we got married in1998. Our friends enjoy teasing us about the fact that while on our honeymoon in Prague, Vienna, Venice, Florence and Capri, we spent much of our time looking at and sketching buildings. We were then in separate offices for five years, but found we missed working together. We formed studio J2 in 2003 in order to be able to do so in our own way (Jennifer continued on elsewhere until she joined full time in 2009). Our love and enthusiasm for our work has always been an integral part of our relationship and it still brings us the same JOY.
