ArroDesign is a small, unique construction company located in the heart of the Green Mountains in central Vermont with an international reach. ArroDesign specializes in the design and construction of unique homes in the Mad River Valley (and beyond) and the construction of larger scale public and civic projects. Over the past several years, the company has been focused on developing and incorporating innovative concrete construction techniques to address issues of durability, sustainability and structural expression.
ArroDesign president, Sandy Lawton, specializes in concrete designs that push the boundaries of what many consider possible. He is changing the way people view concrete in terms of beauty and sustainability while educating them on the benefits of Fabric Formwork. Instead of using rigid forms made from lumber, plywood, cardboard, steel or aluminum, fabric forms use a flexible textile membrane to form concrete in place. Fabric formwork basically reduces the amount of everything required to construct something – placement, storage and even building the forms. There are huge savings every step of the way.
For the most part, we work on one project at a time with a small palette of materials and craft as much as we can on site in order to involve the clients in the process in a more intimate way. We work with owners, architects, engineers and builders.
