Engaged minds, calloused hands and open hearts

 
 

Building upon the vision of the late Samuel Mockbee and his Rural Studio, the mission of DesignBuildBLUFF is to realize architecture that nurtures the spirit and improves the lives of all who experience it.

 

As it seeks a harmonious union from client needs to architectural purpose, DesignBuildBLUFF will challenge the perceived limitations of what can and should be done. When possible and practical, it will employ natural building methods and non-traditional materials to create unique structures that combine a sense of doing good with designs appropriate for the task at hand.

 

Ultimately, DesignBuildBLUFF will not construct buildings as much as it will create unbounded joy.
