Bushman Dreyfus Architects is located in Charlottesville, Virginia. Our firm was founded to bridge a divide between the extraordinary responsiveness of a small organization with the knowledge and depth of a larger one. We started small: the first project was a steel birdhouse designed for a charity auction in 1992, followed by winning a competition for the public amphitheater in Charlottesville.
Today most of our built work is in Virginia, but we also have clients and projects in California, Florida, Liberia, Hawaii, Louisiana, and New York. Our expertise is design. Our focus is on clarity of communication. Our goal is consensus, as in E pluribus unum. Out of many voices, one. People drive our creative process, not software or tools. Collectively, our diverse interests beyond architecture include teaching, community outreach, scenic design, dance, music, craft, graphic design, and writing.
These ventures add cultural richness to our work and introduce exciting, useful perspectives to the array of effective solutions to a problem.

Services
Out of the clamor of construction and the sound of many voices, a building emerges.
Architecture is a public art - on display for all to see - and we embrace the polyphony.
We believe the quality of a design is directly proportional to the quality of the conversation in its making.
We put considerable effort into making that conversation an effective one.
Every design starts with practical solutions to practical needs.
Out of more or less utilitarian beginnings, beautiful outcomes are created.
Architectural design is a collaborative process: with our clients, within our project teams, with technical experts, and with government agencies.
