Colgan Perry Lawler Aurell Architects believes in an architecture rooted in and connected to its particular site. Our goal is to create a strong sense of place that relies primarily on scale, natural light, proportion, and materials for its effect.
The firm that is now CPLA has had a history of innovative design for over 120 years. Our practice has developed a reputation for the design and development of institutional, civic, and commercial buildings as well as significant houses. Now headed by partners John M. Colgan and Walter C. Aurell, the office is located in a National Register building in the Hudson Valley village of Tappan, New York.
