Mr. Krahe established Francis Krahe & Associates in 1983 to provide a unique approach to lighting design. The firm is the product of his perspective on the relationship between quality design and the business of architecture and building construction. Since the firm’s inception, his understanding of the impact and power of dramatic, creative lighting solutions has produced projects where lighting has enhanced and embellished the architecture. These same projects were equally successful in meeting the clients’ budget and schedule. Mr. Krahe’s responsibility is to insure that every project meets or exceeds the client’s expectations.

Mr. Krahe provides both design and management supervision for all aspects of the firm. His involvement begins with client contacts, contract negotiations and conceptual design, and proceeds through the design development process through to construction. His close involvement insures that the highest degree of skill and experience will be applied to key issues. His role as manager is to insure that the firm mirrors his personal goals in terms of quality and service. Key design and business decisions are discussed, reviewed and approved by Mr. Krahe.
