Barley|Pfeiffer Architecture's core strength is designing high-performance homes and buildings that are beautiful and timeless. Recognized for their attractive design, integrity, and ability to stand up to the elements - they are less expensive to own, operate, and maintain, are healthier to occupy, and are more comfortable to live and to work in.
Our "Comprehensive Design" approach means we engage in all aspects of a project from thoughtful initial project programming and site-planning, to award-winning interior design and kitchens, green building strategies and analysis, mechanical systems design, dramatic lighting design that doesn't sacrifice practicality and comfort, as well as full construction administrative services.
Our scope of work can be tailored to fit the budget, schedule, and specific needs of our clients and their projects. We listen and are flexible. While we do not have a set style, our projects are designed to "live" particularly well with their site, paying close attention to the site's micro-climate and setting - all while blending cohesively with our client's tastes, goals and aspirations.

Engaging Barley|Pfeiffer to design our retirement home was one of the smartest things we've ever done. The build of our house is far superior to typical construction in our area. More important, though, this house fits us like a glove. Their comprehensive design process incorporated not just our taste, but how we live, from the room flow to the allocation of HVAC components, etc. Living and building four hours from their Austin office was a bit of a challenge, but we coordinated well and they were on site at all critical junctures. The level of detail in the plans and specifications far exceeded

We chose Barley & Pfeiffer to design a low maintenance, energy efficient retirement home for us in the Texas Hill Country. They seemed to have the best combination of art and science among the architects we interviewed, and although their fee seemed a little high at the time, the finished project is worth every penny. The layout is perfect for us... Alan and Peter took us through a typical day and laid out the home so that it flows with our lifestyle. The design process was very interactive and collaborative and we were able to incorporate many of the best features of the various homes we have
