One evening in the summer of 1938, after a day of fishing on the beautiful Boulder River in south-central Montana, Ralph Cushing and Everett Terrell made a bold decision. Cushing, a structural engineer, and Terrell, an architect, decided to leave their present employer and begin a partnership of their own. So began the historic tale of Cushing & Terrell: the previously unheard-of alliance between an architect and an engineer under one roof.
The original Cushing & Terrell Organization focused on the core business philosophy of integrating design disciplines for all their projects. We maintain that tenet, and as building design and engineering systems become more sophisticated, we continue to add specialists to our staff - individuals who allow us to provide a complete package of services to deliver the highest value design solutions to our clients.
Today, Cushing Terrell responds to the challenges and expectations of our clients throughout the United States and selected foreign locations. Cushing Terrell works closely with them to translate their ideas, goals and objectives into design solutions that are aesthetically pleasing, functional, resource efficient and cost effective.
