My name is Brian Milbury and I started Milbury Architects, Ltd. in 2001 to provide the best experience for my clients throughout the entire process of working with an architect and building your project.
My experience comes from some great mentors and well known firms. As a project designer for Village Architects, Inc. in Key Biscayne, Florida, I spent several years designing high-end, custom homes and worked with an array of design styles and unique building conditions. After leaving Miami for Chicago, my original home, I became a project architect for the award winning firm of Morgante Wilson Architects, Ltd. where I designed custom homes, multi-family residences, and mixed use buildings. After six years, I decided to undertake my own practice and path.
I have kept my firm small in order to devote my utmost attention to your project - from the initial design throughout construction. By providing a single contact person to create the design and construction drawings and perform site observations, we are able to bring your dreams to reality in an efficient, streamlined manner.
