BBA is a full-service architecture firm with a focus on ground up, renovation, and restoration across custom residential and cultural institutions.

We engage in a close dialogue with clients to create designs that strike a balance between functionality and innate beauty. Our creative process is structured, efficient, and thorough. Our approach involves meticulous site-specific analysis, a deep understanding of historical context, optimization of natural light, and a keen appreciation for the local landscape to give each design a unique sense of place.

We work alongside skilled tradespeople in the industry to deliver bespoke, truly custom architecture. We use natural materials to craft spaces that are visually stunning and highly functional. We strive for timelessness in our designs so that they remain relevant and effective for years to come.

Inspired by the Vitruvian principles of firmitatis, utilitatis, venustatis, we ascribe to three key tenets: simplicity, authenticity, and harmony.

Simplicity in design is not about minimalism for the sake of minimalism but about stripping away the unnecessary, focusing on the essential, and finding elegance in clarity and function. Authenticity is derived from a deep understanding and respect for materiality, context, and purpose. It's about creating designs that are true to their nature and function, that resonate with their environment and users. Harmony captures the sense of balance and unity, where every element has its place and purpose, and where the overall composition feels cohesive and coherent.

We practice biomimicry, with nature as mentor. We embrace sustainability and responsibility. We consider the environmental impact of materials and construction methods, designing for longevity and adaptability, and remain ever mindful of the social and cultural implications of our decisions. We craft designs that are not only beautiful and functional but also sustainable and respectful of their community and context.
