WSA ModernRuins®

Walter Sedovic Architects PC dba WSA|ModernRuins® was founded in 1986 on the principle that preservation does far more than save buildings – it informs modern architecture, urban planning, establishes the texture and identity of our communities, reflects our culture, and has proven to be glowingly green, sustainable & resilient... long before these words became a part of our common lexicon. At WSA, "we revere heritage buildings AND modern architecture, never seeking to make one the other." Preservation is our passion, which may be distilled into four distinctive pillars of our practice: 1) AUTHENTICITY, 2) TECHNOLOGY, 3) COMMUNITY & 4) ENVIRONMENT. Our work embodies cultural & community-based programs and initiatives that have a direct effect on people's lives and aspirations, with projects located nationwide, encompassing a palette of intriguing cultural communities, entities & iconic structures: Indigenous & Sacred Sites, Lighthouses, Educational, Industrial, Commercial, Residential.
