Publico Design PLLC is a professional architecture firm with a team approach to the design of renovations, new construction and planning for public spaces. 

Founded by Aggie Crews and Martha Arango, we seek to create a unique design sensitive to and informed by its social, economic and natural environment.

From the beginning of the project we work together with the client, contractor and permitting authorities to arrive at aesthetic and durable solutions while adding comfort and energy efficiency to buildings that enhance the greater community.

Publico Design provides professional design services including hand sketches, 3-D color renderings, construction documents and construction administration. Our services are grounded in our experience in residential, commercial, government, health care, historical restoration, urban planning and mixed use.

AGGIE CREWS has served as principal and project architect in design firms, where she developed expertise in residential, commercial and institutional planning, design and construction.  Aggie’s strong interest is making existing buildings more comfortable and energy efficient and promoting development and design of sustainable and walkable communities.
