History

Soli Terry Architects has recently formed from the confluence of two independent and successful paths. Todd Soli began his career by founding a design-build company in the city of Seattle. He focused on small-scale residential projects and found work in many of the classic neighborhoods around the city. This construction background served him well as he later opened his 'architecture-only' practice and continued to focus on custom residential projects. After a number of years in his Seattle office, Todd opened a second studio in the town of Langley to accommodate the growing demand for work on Whidbey Island. Since then, Todd has completed numerous projects out of both offices with some of his work venturing as far away as Asia, Hawaii and Montana.

Concurrently, after starting his career working in the custom residential market of Sun Valley, Idaho, Eric Terry moved to and settled down in Seattle. He quickly began designing custom homes, remodels, vacation cabins and a variety of commercial projects all over the Northwest. After several years with both a small firm and working as a sole proprietor, Eric accepted an offer from the large and prominent firm, GGLO. While Eric enjoyed the diversity of work and the creative atmosphere at GGLO, he found himself looking to return to a setting where a more intimate relationship could be developed with both the project and the clients.

Todd and Eric's very similar paths crossed early on, and they maintained contact as each continued to pursue his own personal path. In early 2001, they began talking about joining forces and now four years, a new Seattle office and many successful projects later, the partnership has become a reality and Todd and Eric are officially, Soli Terry Architects.
