Introducing W. Stanley Russell – architect
"At its most basic level, a building should function properly – the entry should be evident, the programmatic requirements should be met and the roof shouldn’t leak.

My aim, since establishing my practice in 1982, has been to work in a collaborative effort with clients toward the successful creation of Architecture."
