Established in 1984, F. J. Rawding, A.I.A. started as a small two-person office designing predominately single-family homes and residential additions and renovations. We grew quickly and by 1990, the firm had expanded to fifteen plus employees. We offered civil engineering services as well as our architectural services catering mostly to our many developer clients. As we grew, F. J. Rawding continued to maintain our relationship with our repetitive corporate clients such as Federal Express, Nine West Shoes, Aerosoles, Family Dollar, Penn Federal Savings, Smith Barney, Toys-R-Us, etc.
In the early 1990’s, Jeff Rawding, Principal of F. J. Rawding, A.I.A, partnered with Behrle Club Consultants to become one of the premier private golf club designers in the northeast. Today our resume boasts over 100 clubhouses and club related projects for some of the most prestigious clubs in the world.
In addition to the private clubs, F. J. Rawding, A.I.A.’s recent projects include institutional, corporate offices, hospitality, as well as a number of midrise mixed-use residential/retail buildings. We also take pride in the fact that we still maintain our roots in the residential side of our profession; designing multi-family developments for developers; affordable housing for nonprofits and single family homes, renovations and additions for our custom builders and private homeowners alike.
