BDW is located in the heart of downtown Montgomery, Alabama. Our founder, Jim E. Barganier, with his ingenuity and remarkable works set the standard for what BDW has become; one of the top architectural firms in the Southeast. His commitment to purposeful design still guides our practice today.

Over the decades, the firm has earned a reputation for quality architectural design, state-of-the-art facilities, exceptional professional service, and technical expertise. Each project is approached with the same clarity of purpose that defined our beginnings: design that elevates performance, experience, and community impact.

Currently, BDW is led by partners, Ray E. Williams and Johnny B. Raines III and supported by a deeply experienced team that includes registered architects, graduate interns, construction supervisors, skilled drafters, a dedicated marketing department, model builders, artists, photographers, and superior support personnel. Together, we honor Jim Barganier’s legacy by delivering thoughtful, enduring architecture for the clients and communities we serve.
