Designing spaces that function for the client and inspire the communityOur 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.

Educational methodology has evolved over the years, with current trends embracing a 21st Century teaching and learning environment. Primary and secondary education now emphasize collaborative student interaction and cooperative learning environments. At BHA, we strive to incorporate these approaches into our school designs — fostering student autonomy and group learning, incorporating interactive curriculum, and developing flexible learning spaces. Our educational facilities are designed to integrate security measures and enhance visibility, utilize durable and lasting construction strategies, incorporate sustainable materials and practices, and provide for flexibility and expansion to accommodate the current and future educational curriculum.

As America’s infrastructure ages, local governments face challenges to modernize facilities and structures with fewer resources. We have dedicated significant resources to becoming a leader in municipal administration, police, and fire facilities in the mid-Atlantic region. We develop cost-effective design solutions and construction strategies that meet regulatory and community needs while managing budget, schedule, scope for sustainability, and energy efficiency.

We are able to bring ideas and police and public safety service trends to the table – ones that may not have been considered. We have the knowledge of specialized systems and equipment needed to be addressed in the design of a modern first responder facility. Vehicle exhaust extrication, emergency notification systems, and emergency call stations are just some of the specialized systems our architects and engineers understand and are able to incorporate into the design. Our facilities have met the standards of and been accredited by CALEA and other state accreditation agencies.
