Meet the A.Formers

A.Form Architecture & Associates D.P.C. was established in 1996 in Andrew's studio apartment, and remained a one-man operation for its first couple of years. Though the A.Form team has grown over the ensuing decades, we are proud to remain an employee-owned company today.

Over the past 14 years, Darrell has worked with virtually every client and venue in the A.Form universe to help realize their event.
