About the Firm:
4Line Studio was formed in 2021 around the belief that successful public projects are delivered through a balanced, interdisciplinary process that connects creative thinking with practical execution. Founded by Chris Ford and Byron Cline, the firm is led by principals with more than 25 years of combined experience delivering municipal, community, and civic facilities across Arizona.
As a focused design practice, 4Line Studio operates with the agility of a small firm while bringing the experience and perspective of larger organizations. The studio maintains a collaborative approach centered on communication, integrated problem-solving, and thoughtful design that responds directly to site, context, budget, and community needs.
Services include architecture, landscape architecture, interior design, planning, programming, construction documentation, and construction administration. Through an interdisciplinary process, 4Line Studio creates durable, community-focused environments that provide long-term value and meaningful public impact.
