architectural firm in the eastern United States at the turn of the twentieth century. The firm consisted of
Charles McKim ,
William Mead , and
Stanford White . McKim and White studied under
Henry Hobson Richardson before forming their own firm. They were associated with the
City Beautiful and
Beaux Arts movements, which aimed to clean up the visual confusion of American cities and imbue them with a sense of order and noble formality.
