Finding the solution

Since our founding in 1993, collaboration has been ingrained in the Bird Houk process. As a multidisciplinary team of planners, architects, urban designers and landscape architects, we bring multiple viewpoints, skills, and experiences to every opportunity. We are continually broadening our expertise to benefit our clients. This broad knowledge base allows us to see beyond the obvious, anticipating inherent challenges so that we can respond with the most appropriate solutions.

An aptitude for business, stemming from a legacy of private sector experience, completes the package. Many of our associates have direct experience in private industry. Combined with our principals' first-hand real estate and development experience, provides us with acute marketplace understanding of fiscal and scheduling issues. Our solutions incorporate not only pure creative talent, but also good business sense. This yields sustainable results for all of our clients - public and private.

Whether it's designing a school, redeveloping a city's corridor, programming a building or creating a set of community design standards, we encourage input and foster interaction among stakeholders to single out the solution that will endure.
