Forum Architects
At Forum Architects, we view architecture as both a science and an art. As a science, the field calls us to understand the materials and craftsmanship that combine to create a solid, functional structure. As an art, architecture employs shapes, colors and textures to make a building compatible with its environment and a place in which the lives of users are enriched.
Services
As a mid-sized firm based in Mishawaka, Indiana, Forum Architects currently serves clients in Indiana, Michigan, Illinois and Iowa. Our design expertise is in the area of commercial, industrial and educational structures, along with growing involvement in healthcare, religious and multi-family housing facilities.
Mr. Hentschel is a graduate of Kansas State University College of Architecture and Design. He joined Forum Architects in 2000 as a Project Architect/Project Manager. He is licensed in Florida, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin and is also a LEED accredited professional. He has over 24 years architectural experience in residential, commercial, industrial, and healthcare design and has worked on projects throughout the United States.
Given the broad range of knowledge architects must possess to provide a finished project, there can be occasions where it is necessary to collaborate with others to get the latest information and technological assistance in various areas.
This can be as simple as using recycled, non-toxic materials or a more comprehensive program involving such elements as green roofs, photovoltaic cells that capture sunlight, and air and water treatment systems. Both Renee Kobayashi and William Hentschel are LEED AP BD+C accredited professionals.
Every architecture firm brings its own combination of skills, expertise, interests, and values to its projects. The challenge is to find the one that aligns most closely with your project's needs. As early as possible. Architects can help you define your project in every respect and may also do site studies, assist in securing planning and zoning approvals, and provide a variety of other predesign services.

We've worked with Forum Architects on multiple projects and have been satisfied with their level of professionalism and detail. As a General Contractor, our relationship with the Architect of Record (AOR) is vital to the success of a project. Forum has continuously delivered on their services. I would highly recommend them.

We have been fortunate to work with Forum together on several projects over the last few years as a consulting MEP firm and cant say enough great things about them. We appreciate the no nonsense approach to projects and attention to detail that they use every day. Great group to work with!
