About Us

At Frederick Fisher and Partners, our mission is simple—improve life through architecture.

We are lucky to work with some of the world’s most prestigious educational, cultural, and civic institutions. Our diverse, award-winning projects range from universities and schools to museums and creative workspaces, from adaptive reuse to recreational facilities and parks, from houses to housing.

Guided by four pillars—Process, Context, Function, and Aesthetics—we engage in our design work thoughtfully and thoroughly. While our architecture reflects the rich variety of the clients and communities we serve, our ethos emphasizes clean elegance, domesticity, and delight. In everything we create, we strive to integrate innovation and collaboration, beauty and authenticity, buildability and sustainability, and a broad cultural perspective.

In addition to competitive salaries, benefits, 401K options, and paid vacation time, FFP prides itself on its special office culture. We are a team that truly cares about our work and each other, and we value inclusion, respect, and camaraderie. While we strive for cohesion, we also believe everyone’s voice matters. Life-long learning is a priority, and we encourage our talented staff to share their knowledge and interests.

• Experience in building-making: building codes, structural and MEP systems, FF&E, construction techniques and detailing
• General understanding of project and consultant coordination
• Problem-solver who can anticipate needs, help make decisions, and who enjoys working collaboratively with others
• A Bachelor or Master of Architecture from an accredited institution
• Facility using Revit as a design and coordination tool.
