FGM is a professional service firm with an emphasis on service. Our projects respond to the goals of our clients, the context of their sites, the environment that sustains them and the communities they serve.

Our projects touch all aspects of community life-learning, working, protecting and playing. Learning takes place in our education projects, from early childhood facilities through high schools to colleges and universities. Working takes place in our public administration and private corporation facilities. Protecting is the main purpose of our police and fire stations. And playing occurs in our recreation centers and gymnasiums.

Our portfolio of projects has earned the firm significant recognition. We are particularly proud of the awards from client organizations, as they speak of our commitment to realizing their goals. FGM has also been honored with the Illinois Chapter of the American Institute of Architect’s Distinguished Firm Award, recognizing our contributions to communities across the state and to our profession.

Our offices are in Oak Brook, Chicago, O’Fallon and St. Louis, but we work wherever our clients take us.
