At C. Paul Butler III Architects, we are committed to providing personalized customer service. Our skilled architects and design specialists take the time to listen to our clients, understand their vision, and offer recommendations based on their unique needs.

Our firm has utilized parametric software BIM since 2000, allowing us to produce accurate work with a multiplication factor that enables one architect to produce more than what could be achieved with traditional CADD. Our first project using Building Information Modeling was the year 2000 for Verizon Wireless, where we designed the "model store" that was replicated across the country.
