TEA2 (Tom Ellison Architects), a Minneapolis based firm, founded in 1979, focuses on highend residential design with an emphasis on quality construction and craftsmanship. Working at TEA2 provided me an opportunity to learn first hand the architectural design process from reknown architects Daniel Nepp and Tom Ellison. Both have been staples in the Minnesota architectural community for over 30 years and have had a profound affect on my thinking as a student of design. Their approach instilled in me has long been something that has carried me through my academic career.
