37 years ago, in 1987, architects Clay Birchfield and Chuck Penuel launched Birchfield Penuel Architects (BPA).
Back then, they did it all—designing, managing, and driving the firm’s growth.
They both had degrees from Auburn and experience designing complex clinical projects.
Together, they built a business on a bold idea: specializing in healthcare architecture.
Now, the founders have retired, and a new generation is building on their legacy from a newly renovated, award-winning office in downtown Homewood.
Today, BPA has expanded its expertise beyond healthcare, specializing in education, commercial, and civic projects while staying true to the high standards that have always defined the firm.
