ARCHITECTUREFIRM is a collaboration of architects and designers in Brooklyn, New York and Richmond, Virginia, led by Danny MacNelly, Katie MacNelly, and Adam Ruffin, specialized in hospitality, residential, and contemporary art spaces. We approach architecture in a way that is clear in its process and outcome, economical in both means and gestures, and optimistic in its vision of a better future.

Our portfolio includes award-winning residential, cultural, hospitality, mixed-use, and workplace projects. Our chief pursuit is a timeless expression of building that is appropriate to its users and their purpose, that blends progressive technology with elemental form.

We are SWaM certified as a small business in the Commonwealth of Virginia and pending in New York State.
