[edit] Firm Statement
Bradley J. Butcher, AIA began private practice in northern Michigan in June 1996 to provide architectural and planning services to clients throughout the Great Lakes region. In August 2001, the practice became Butcher & Associates, PC. The firm provides architectural services for a highly diverse array of project types including municipal, military, retail, office, resort and hospitality, industrial, and single and multi-family developments. The firm's founder, Bradley J. Butcher, AIA is licensed to practice Architecture in the states of Indiana, Michigan, New York, and Ohio, and is currently (2010) serving his third term as President of AIA Michigan's Upper Great Lakes Chapter. The firm's staff includes two other AIA members, one of which is also a LEED(R) Accredited Professional.
With a commitment to quality sustainable design, efficient problem solving and planning, and most of all, a work ethic that puts the Client's needs at the forefront of the planning process, the firm has developed a reputation as a leader in providing successful design solutions throughout the Great Lakes Region. This commitment has manifested itself in the fact that the firm continues a relationship with many of its clients beyond the limits of the contract. The firm has a high degree of repeat clients and referral work. Butcher & Associates, PC coordinates its services for each project with a team of professionals that includes in-house architectural staff and a variety of outside consultants. These professionals include engineers, landscape architects, interior designers, food service consultants, and acoustical consultants.
The success of Butcher & Associates, PC is a direct result of the firm's ability to share ideas, planning strategies, and design solutions with all members of the design team. This design team counts the Client as one of its members. The input of the client, no matter how qualified, is always considered during the design process. An open line of communication leads to shared ideas and mutual satisfaction in the final solution.
Municipal clients include large and small communities throughout Michigan - fire stations, public safety and emergency medical service facilities, police stations, city and township halls, marinas, libraries, community centers, and other special use facilities. The focus is always on the intended use of the structure and how it will best serve the needs of the citizens of each community.
Residential clients enjoy custom designs specifically tailored to their individual needs. Universal Design considerations are a large factor in homes of all sizes - traditional designs to the cottage on the lake; country homes and golf course living to the cabin in the woods; larger floor plans to the design considerations of the Not-So-Big House philosophy - long term planning makes homes usable and accommodating for our clients regardless of age or physical limitations.
Commercial clients include the hospitality industry, restaurants and retail, entertainment and leisure, personal service industry, as well as higher learning institutions and community foundations.
Governmental clients include the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, Veterans Administration Medical Centers, Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center, Camp Grayling Annual Training Site, Air National Guard, Army National Guard, Ohio National Guard (Camp Ravenna Joint Military Training Center), United States Property & Fiscal Office (USPFO), State of Michigan Department of Transportation, and the United States Forest Service.
