OZMO was founded by Rufus Louderback and provides Architectural Design and Construction Management Services including full A/E consulting. Check out the Residential or Commerical tabs for a range of the types of projects we have experience in.

At OZMO, the focus is to understand the needs of our client and to find meaningful solutions that integrate those needs with their site and the surrounding context. Our goal is to create an outline of the project parameters and then along with an understanding of all the basics of good design - solar exposure, views, lighting, environment, construction systems & materials - create something unique and worthy of the clients expectations.
