About

We understand what our clients need before they know to ask. How a bais medrash functions. How a school and a wedding hall share a building. How a kosher kitchen flows. How a family’s needs *change over time.*

Specialized teams and substantial architectural resources support campuses, healthcare facilities, commercial developments, and other complex work, with the personal attention of a small firm.

Our philosophy

Designed for reality.

Beautiful renderings are easy. We design for the budget, the code, the builder, and the people who use the building.

94%of our projects move to construction

Reality has a budget.

Layouts and structures are chosen for economy and ease of construction, so the building you approve is the building you can afford.

Reality has a code.

Building requirements are interpreted and resolved early, before they reshape the design or slow an approval.

Reality has a builder.

We detail for the people who will build it, and work with designers to carry an inspired concept through construction with its beauty intact.

Reality has a future.

Homes that grow with the family and host at Shabbos and Yom Tov. Institutions whose uses change and overlap. Commercial buildings that stay efficient and earn their return.

Built on experience. Constantly advancing.

At BF Design, we’re actively integrating advanced technology across every part of our process. Our capabilities continue to evolve, expanding how we explore ideas, solve problems, and move projects forward, all guided by decades of architectural experience.
