Firm Description

Inspired design that matters.
Something special happens each time you enter the space. It stirs the senses. It resonates. That is what we do here at BAR Architects. We create places that inspire and that stand the test of time while meeting each of our client’s specific needs in unique ways.

As a firm, we’ve been honing our skills for more than 50 years. We’re undeniably proud of BAR’s reputation for excellence. We’ve earned our expertise. Yet, in many ways, we still possess the zeal of an upstart, driven to stretch and push ourselves on every project. Our studio environment combined with our large firm resources fosters collaboration and encourages creative thinking.

Every client relationship is tailor-made, and every solution site-specific. We begin with personal interaction and exchange—a bit old school, as we pride ourselves in our ability to really listen. This dialogue continues with an assessment of the site, culture, sustainability, and context. It’s an interactive process, enjoyable and creative; artful and engaging and always inspiring.
