BRR Architecture (BRR) announced today RHA Architects (RHA), a Dallas-based design and architecture firm, will be joining BRR, effective immediately.
The RHA office in Dallas becomes BRR’s twelfth office location and adds more than 15 talented employees to BRR’s current talent roster.
Operational since 1983, RHA has extensive experience supporting national retail, regional grocery and restaurant clients. The two firms have enjoyed a relationship which extends back several decades; both BRR and RHA have supported national retail clients across the United States and often collaborated on larger prototype programs.
“Our two teams really fit well together due to our collective histories supporting large national retailers. It is the right fit for both firms to move in this direction. By combining our strengths, we are even better suited to support our clients’ needs and provide exceptional architecture services," said James Hailey, president and CEO of BRR Architecture.
As part of this agreement, BRR adds two additional principal owners and two associates to its leadership team. Ty Holcomb, former president and CEO of RHA and Patrick Burke, former vice president and COO, have been named principals and manage the Dallas office. Additionally, Jim Sims and Maurice Musy have joined BRR’s associates’ team.
“The RHA team is excited to join forces with BRR. The merger opens up new opportunities for our Dallas-based team and also gives BRR a new market in which to grow its business. We believe both cultures will integrate well and continue to produce strong projects for our clients,” Holcomb said.
BRR now employs approximately 285 employees across the country, providing full-scope architecture services to retail, grocery, hospitality, industrial and corporate environment clients.
The financial details of the agreement will not be disclosed.
