Koppe Wagoner Architects is a firm founded on the combined forty-five years experience of Bob Wagoner and John Koppe completing publicly visible community projects in the Northwest. The firm’s expertise includes community based public projects in the areas of library facilities, community centers, conference centers, college and university facilities and day care centers. Design and planning of libraries has been a focus of Firm Principal Bob Wagoner for the past three decades in the Pacific Northwest, completing over a dozen library planning projects including new construction, renovations and modifications to historic libraries. The firm’s work is characterized by a balanced approach to architecture with emphasis on three aspects of design and construction: responsive project design, attention to budget and follow-through on project design phase scheduling. The firm principals work with clients in a colloquial fashion: with the Owner as member of the larger design team. Firm project leaders are good listeners and are respectful of design and project administration issues raised by those involved. The firm principals’ work has received local and national recognition on their past projects. Their buildings have included a high level of design attention from early planning and conceptual stages, to design detailing and solving on-site construction problems.
