Expertise

Richard Ziegler Architect has a wide variety of experience in complex building programs involving numerous Specialty Consultants, various user and Client Groups and Multiple Phasing Requirements. These projects involve Private Commercial Facilities, Courthouses, Post Disaster Recovery Facilities, Police Departments, and Government Administration Facilities.
