About Ken Newberry

Newberry Architecture is a full-service firm established in 1997. Founding Principal Ken Newberry created the firm’s foundation on its core belief: Architecture should reflect every client’s personal aesthetic and enhance their day-to-day experience. Ken has assembled a team of professionals that understand the value of listening and recognizes that architecture is about the client and their vision – not about the architect and what they want to design. Newberry\'s staff worked in two small rooms out of Ken’s home, sharing desk space, phones, and other equipment. As staff and clientele expanded, the firm moved to a work space suitable for a growing business that had earned a reputation and respect for putting clients first.After only two years from its formation, Ken’s vision led to projects throughout the Houston area and on both coasts. From there, Newberry went global, completing projects in Belize, Canada, Italy, and Mexico. Collaboration and passion for custom design has brought Newberry Architecture to where it is today. Commitment to teamwork, extraordinary ideas and inclusion of an array of inventive perspectives are all elements brought to every Newberry project. Today, under the leadership of three principals, Newberry Architecture continues to foster a high-performance and high-quality work environment. Newberry Architecture’s ability and willingness to communicate with all involved in the process – combined with the creative and technical expertise expected from a leading architecture firm – ensures that Newberry\'s clients receive the project of their dreams.
