Great Work.
The Vespera Credo
We believe that great work is generous by nature.
It gives back in unexpected ways.
We plan, design and build for the greater good. That is, we believe our work should advance the broader interests of the community and enhance the quality of life beyond the borders of our projects.
We’re not interested in doing more of the same.
We find a niche, an unmet market need, and that becomes our focus.
Every project is a unique solution to a unique set of challenges.
There are no formulas.
We partner with the community. We find innovative ways to collaborate and create value for all constituencies.
We create connections; mutually beneficial relationships that extend over time.
We think before we act. We envision long-term consequences.
We’re catalysts for conservation. Smart growth advocates. Stewards of the natural environment.
We prefer big ideas that generate a small footprint — ecologically speaking.
We think locally. When you know the land, the people and the need — the right solution will emerge.
We respect our neighbors. Because context is important. Edges are important. Local color is important. And it’s the polite thing to do. (After all, they were here first.)
We think local. We think fine-grain. Because it’s the small, authentic details that often make the biggest difference.
We leave a place better than it was when we found it. We raise the bar. Either that or we invent a whole new bar.
We approach everything with an open mind. Common sense prevails.
We deliver more than what is expected.
We create enduring value.
We love what we do.
