Our Practice

your partner every step of the way

When you work with Bray, the first thing we’ll do is listen. Before we design, we get to know your needs, your goals, your budget, and your community.

We’ll work closely with you to find the most thoughtful, adaptable, community-centered solutions – always fitting your timeline and budget.

Proven approach

learning about your needs

Every project is different, but our community-centered process is the same. We form a trusted partnership with every client, creating results that reflect your needs and community.

Even with our decades of experience, we don’t bring preconceived notions of what’s right for your community into a project. We’ll invest time building familiarity and trust with your stakeholders and community before we even think about what to design.

Designing for the future

leading sustainable design

As architects for the largest net zero energy school in the U.S., we know what’s possible in making any building more sustainable. It’s an investment that’s within reach for even public entities – one that will pay dividends for decades.

Sustainable design is embedded in our practice because of the layers of cost savings, efficiency, and environmental benefits. No matter what your sustainability goals are, we’ll partner with you and explore the ways to reach them.

to work

No question is too big – or too small – for our team. We’ve been helping communities inspire and grow since 1962, and we’d love to partner with you as you build your community’s future.
