In the Works

Complete Architecture Services

We are proud to be selected by so many owners and developers to build or reinvent their spaces. Our work has included many different forms of architecture, and we’re excited by the prospect of working with more projects in the future.

The BTBB Experience: Hands-On Architecture

As a BTBB client, you’ll enjoy what we call our hands-on experience. A company principal is involved with every single project we take on, and our team remains hands-on with the project from initial consultation until ribbon-cutting and beyond.

Relying on a small, local team means you’ll get to know us and vice versa. When you have a question, you’ll have a single point of contact who’s ready to provide the answer you need.

Detailed Discovery and Building Program Creation

As we said above, we start every project with listening. During your initial consultations with us, we’ll explore your goals for the project and your expectations for your new space. We’ll also begin the process that we call “problem-seeking”—thinking through your entire project from start to finish and anticipating the challenges that might arise.

From there, we develop a complete and detailed building program – the “specification requirements” for your project. Your building program will inform every decision your project’s designers, planners, contractors, and other specialists make. A program can include:

• Space and functionality requirements
• Surface and finish requirements
• Engineering (plumbing, electrical, environmental, etc.) requirements
• Special permitting challenges or ecological concerns
• Specific site aesthetic concerns (i.e., meeting signage or streetscape appearance requirements)
• Any other details that will impact the progress or completion of the project

Architecture Design From an Award-Winning Team

With your building program finalized, our architects will get to work on designing your project. We approach each design as a unique opportunity to make an existing space better or create a new space that meets the client’s current and future needs.

Our goal with any design is to balance form and function. We’re not going to draw a gorgeous flight of fancy that your budget could never make real, nor are we going to give you a highly functional but aesthetically boring design. We create functional beauty.

Throughout the design process, we work closely with you and your team to ensure that our work aligns perfectly with your project goals and to stay on top of any changes in the project’s details.

When we’ve created a design that works for your project and that fits within your time and budgetary constraints, we’re ready to break ground.
