OUR SERVICES

As licensed Architects in CA, we handle the design, construction drawings, city expediting, construction management and even custom element fabrication. As a Design-Build firm we highly understand how to address whatever you need, allowing us to meet all your building, interiors and custom fabrication needs.

Commercial Interiors

As a full-service architectural design-build firm, we handle everything. From design concepts, architectural drawings, permitting, project estimates, and full management of construction.

Residential Interiors

From concepts, to permitting and beyond. We can help you get estimates and find the right GC for your project, as well as help you manage the project through to completion.

Permit Expediting

Our 10+ years working on projects around the Bay Area allows us to effectively create designs that will work. We navigate the city permitting for our projects and can help untangle prior construction messes and current hold ups with permit expediting.

Construction Management

Being a Design-Build firm we’re more involved in the construction than a design-only firm; this reduces cost, risks, and scheduling mishaps.

Effective Design

We’re experts at creative reuse, and our in-house production empowers us to get far more out of your budget than traditional firms. We create spaces that people love to work and live in.

Custom Elements

We work closely with our network of local fabrication workshops enabling us to quickly deliver bespoke interiors and custom elements for your project.

WHO WE ARE

BWC, established in 2009 by Jeffrey McGrew and Jillian Northrup, has cultivated a robust network of employees, collaborators, and clients, fostering enduring professional relationships.

Our design philosophy centers on the belief that successful design is inherently inclusive, sustainable and harmonizes functionality with aesthetics; individuals with environment. Each project is an opportunity to create something exceptional and distinctive for the world; grounded in a design that is practical, environmentally minded and inspiring.
