Beyer Blinder Belle was founded in 1968 by John H. Beyer, Richard Blinder, and John Belle, in the wake of the urban renewal movement in the United States, when the social fabric of cities, communities, and buildings was compromised by the prevailing attitudes about planning and architecture.
They pioneered and defined a different approach to the design of the built environment that focused on architecture empowering people — their interaction with each other on streets and in neighborhoods, their pleasure in moving through the city, and their connections to the surrounding physical fabric.
The founding partners John Belle, Richard Blinder, and John Beyer established the guiding values and principles that have anchored Beyer Blinder Belle's practice for more than five decades.
