Alarife (ah lah ree fay) – Old Spanish Moorish term used to describe a professional individual that specializes in both the design and building of architecture.

The architecture and building firm of ALARIFE pllc, led by Eugen Logan Wagner PhD AIA, and a team of artists and artisans, uses traditional trades, crafts and tools to restore existing historic buildings, designs and builds modern, sustainable hand crafted architecture. Many of the buildings use rammed earth, adobe, stone, and stucco instead of conventional-walled structures.

Would you buy a sofa or chair without sitting on it? Of course not. It's the same with audio equipment.

Buying something after reading about it is like buying a piano without playing it. At Audio Systems, you can hear the difference between different components (speakers, amplifiers, sources) so you can get the system that pleases you the most. You can't do this at "big box" stores or on the internet.

If the system you might buy starts at about $1000, come see us. For the same amount of money, no "big box" store can equal our sound, and no "internet picked" system gives you the certainty that you have chosen what is best.

"The idea for our company began when the 2 partners, Chris Maxwell-Gaines and Blake West, met while serving in the U.S. Peace Corp in South America where we used rainwater every day.  We wondered why this resource was used so little in the U.S., and created a company to provide systems to help people harvest rainwater.

We are a full-service water conservation system design / build company that specializes in water demand and supply management in residential and commercial projects. We create rainwater harvesting, graywater reuse, and irrigation systems as well as drainage improvements and landscape solutions. "
