Experience
At Architecture FURST, our extensive experience is based on a wide variety of design projects. We regularly complete new buildings, small and large additions, and renovations for clients ranging from public school districts and public organizations to commercial developers, industrial clients, and private sector clients.

Architecture FURST has been offering our clients an exceptional level of service for more than eight years. Robert Furst, company principal, has over 28 years of varied architectural experience. Our firm is comprised of design professionals experienced in both architectural design and planning, and our comprehensive approach allows us to provide a full range of services including interior design, space planning, and construction administration.

Leadership at Every Turn
From proposal to project completion, a principal and senior staff member from Architecture FURST leads every step of the design process. While the contributions of all team members are critical to the success of every project we undertake, at any time during a project you will have direct communication with a senior decision-maker.

An Effective Bid Process
Because the majority of Architecture FURST projects are publicly bid, we go out of our way to see that our clients maximize every dollar allocated to their projects and that good public relations are maintained as construction takes place. When it comes to the actual bidding process, Architecture FURST works hard to deliver bid documents that are accurate, complete, and inclusive in their detail. This results in the enthusiastic involvement of reputable contractors and, as we like to say, "the most bang for the buck."

Architecture FURST projects are consistently within budget, and change orders are minimal and often nonexistent. Our unwavering attention to detail often results in receiving the most competitive bids from contractors who are confident that the project will be managed effectively and fairly.

A Commitment to Open Communication
At Architecture FURST, one of our primary goals is the establishment of open communication with our clients. Our designs, production approach, and management system all revolve around a team concept. Client input is an integral part of this concept.
