Collectively, we represent a practice whose expertise is team-focused and offers a client-centered approach.

Our integrated approach fosters strong partnerships across all design disciplines and supports an open dialogue with our clients to find the best design solutions under budget and timing constraints, while removing redundancies and enhancing the final product.

Collaborating regionally between our practice sites and satellite offices, BKV Group operates as a cohesive firm to deliver a wide range of project types for a diverse set of national and local clients. We leverage industry-leading communication and technology tools with best-in-class design processes to seamlessly work across the country to meet our clients’ needs, and continually expand our presence into existing and new markets.
The four American practice sites at BKV Group are supported by BKV’s Vietnam offices in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Da Nang, which contribute design services for many of our U.S. projects, and allow BKV access to the Asian markets. Furthermore, our firm is able to provide cross-practice training opportunities and structure project teams to leverage the 12-hour time difference, creating a nearly 24-hour design studio that can meet accelerated deadlines without sacrificing quality and creativity.

The Sugar House project is a two-building development located in the heart of the Sugar House neighborhood outside of downtown Salt Lake City. The neighborhood has a rich and diverse history, and is named after the sugar beet mill-turned-paper factory-turned train repair hub that was once a prominent structure.

As a heavily amenitized, market-rate development containing microunits, Sugar House features a variety of uses including maker space, retail pop-ups, and potentially a partnership with a local bicycle shop. While not zoned for commercial use, these spaces will be embedded in the final project, with both buildings uniquely featuring co-working spaces where communal working zones are paired with living and recreation spaces, establishing an immersive co-living environment including a central kitchen space and bowling alley – the latter of which was one of the original uses of the property.
