About Buchart Horn Architects:
Buchart Horn was one of the first professional consulting companies to combine engineering and architecture under one roof. That innovation was fueled by a simple premise: it was better for clients if engineers and architects would cooperate rather than compete on projects. Simple ideas are often the most powerful; today the firm’s professional and support personnel serve local, state, and federal government clients around the world.
Buchart Horn Architects (BHA) has been providing exceptional architectural services to clients in private and public sectors. We have designed and administered the construction of facilities for more than 1,000 clients. We take as much pride in the relationships we build as the structures we create.
Our design process begins with a simple goal: to meet our clients’ needs through visionary and realistic designs. The design process is just as important as the final product, and it is our responsibility to provide clients with unparalleled service and exceptional design while creating spaces that function for the client and inspire the community. We take great pride in turning clients’ visions into extraordinary architecture by collaborating with leaders of public and private organizations, helping them articulate their goals, and following through with design solutions to bring their visions to life.
We bring the ability to quickly understand your project’s needs, constraints, and your future requirements. The architectural process is essential to understanding the value of construction – the discussion of details transforms a simple piece of work into a memorable building. We strive to ensure the design and construction of a building is both transformative and long lasting in order to support all aspects of aesthetics, function, and economics. Our clients and peers know the Buchart Horn Architects (BHA) name and rely on us to see their projects through from concept to completion. We look forward to working with you on your next project.
