RAKAUSKAS ARCHITECTURE – POSITION STATEMENT

John J. Rakauskas has had his own architectural practice since 1990, currently doing business as Rakauskas Architecture. Previously he was a project architect and designer for notable Cleveland firms. This experience has evolved into to a practice that emphasizes appropriateness and the buildable over the theoretical and novel, looking for beauty in the realizable. Even before the current emphasis on "green," the approach for Rakauskas Achitecture has always embraced re-use and restoration whenever possible, use of local materials, energy efficiency and a general belief that "small is beautiful."

The firm is currently interested in modest size commercial, institutional and residential projects involving new buildings, additions, restoration and adaptive re-use. These will be given a hands-on approach where being a good listener combines with years of experience to come up with imaginative yet realistic options that give clients the ability to make good decisions about their projects.
