BAR Architects

A broad array of clients have entrusted their most important projects to BAR Architects. Each bring a compelling opportunity, and we continually challenge ourselves to produce something extraordinary for every client-something original, distinct and precisely right for their needs. We delight in this diversity of work. Whether a client comes to us for a custom home or a cutting-edge corporate campus, winery or a new community, we cross-pollinate ideas, keeping our perspective fresh and our attitude expansive.

We bring creative thinking to interior design with engaging research, collaboration and seamless integration of architecture and interiors. Our holistic design approach provides our clients with concept focus and high quality interiors resulting in uniquely customized hotels, resorts, single and multifamily residences. Hospitality interior projects noted with an * consist of independent and brand hotels & resorts by EDG Interior Architecture + Design completed by Tim Hepworth as Studio Design Director while with EDG.

The design of a custom home is a highly specialized and personalized aspect of architecture practice. We bring the expertise necessary to create unique and elegant residences reflective of the individual personality, needs and goals of our clients. Custom homes have ranged in size from 2,000 to 20,000 sf. Regardless of the size or architectural style, we create homes that are contextually sensitive and thoughtfully designed to embody the unique vision of our clients.

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.

Architecture is a fascinating blend of art and engineering. It's creative, complex and challenging-and we're passionate about doing it right. Walking through our office on any given day you may encounter a project undergoing a sustainability charrette, one or more interns from a number of universities, teams collaborating on a "design caf" and more. Visible in our office, the passion for our work also extends beyond our doors to the broader profession and community. Assisting in a neighborhood revitalization, participating in USGBC and the AIA's Committee on the Environment (COTE) to our pro-bono endeavors designing a school in post-earthquake Haiti, start to give you an understanding of our definition of community.
