Let Your Values Speak
Through architecture + design
Darcey | Seattle, WA
"The Design DNA process was instrumental in helping us define our design needs and goals. Barron beautifully weaves together the empirical with intuitive and is equal parts architect, designer, and emotional ninja. His knowledge, support, and guidance allowed me to set aside years of worry and uncertainty, and to invite in clarity around our project."
Molly | Missoula, MT
“Barron exemplifies a rare fusion of artistic brilliance and community-centric ethos. He recognizes that architecture is about fostering connections and achieving a shared vision as much or more than it is about the built environment.”
Debra | Seattle, WA
"Barron has been a delight! His thought-provoking questions have provided clarity in the design process, and with that he has found a way to include everything I asked for in the design. He is both clear and gracious to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an empowering and co-creative experience."
Dara | Missoula, MT
"Barron's business model differs from other Architects in that he listens more than he explains. He position is not at all condescending or tutorial but feels more like you're the teacher and he's the student. I really felt heard."
Hi, I’m Barron Whitney Peper
I am an award-winning architect who graduated with honors from a top-tier university, and worked at the nation’s best multi-disciplinary firm, then became Project Architect for the most rigorously sustainable micro-homes in the country.
How did I come to work on such interesting projects? Because I’ve always asked deeper questions about the role of design in our lives, and I refuse to sell architecture short.
I founded Architecture of Belonging to facilitate each client’s personal values away from the realm of theory and abstraction, and into real-life expressions of what matters to you. When we work together, we’re not only designing a building, we’re collaborating to Design Your Life.
Architecture of Belonging.
