About Us
BHDP, an award-winning international architectural firm, is recognized for innovative and inspiring solutions in architecture, planning, interior design, experiential graphic design, project management, and strategic consulting. BHDP serves seven markets: Industrial, Workplace, Higher Education, Discovery & Science, Healthcare, Government, and Retail from its offices in Cincinnati and Columbus, OH, and Charlotte and Raleigh, NC.
BHDP originated in 1937 when Cyrus Baxter formed his architectural firm in Cincinnati, OH, to design work for his former employer, Cincinnati Milacron, the world’s largest manufacturer of machine tools. The founders expanded the firm’s expertise from manufacturing and workplace to include other noteworthy projects in the higher education, retail, and science markets.
At BHDP, we believe in achieving strategic results for our clients by combining an understanding of their people and processes. We design places and experiences that inspire people. We are committed to market-specific expertise and people-focused solutions that integrate this expertise to deliver dynamic, transformative results for our clients.
With multiple US locations and registered architects in all 50 states, BHDP can execute projects worldwide. We have completed projects in all 50 US states, five Canadian provinces, and over 30 different countries around the globe. We believe the key to success in working across a broad geographical platform is to get the right people in the right place at the right time.
