St. Paul Architecture Firm BWBR Acquires Durham's RND Architects, Gaining Research Triangle Foothold
DURHAM, N.C. — BWBR, a St. Paul, Minnesota-based architecture and design firm, announced on November 9 that it has acquired Durham-based RND Architects, establishing a foothold in North Carolina's Research Triangle, in Durham, Durham County, North Carolina.
The transaction closed on October 30, and the firms began operating together on November 2. RND becomes BWBR's fourth office, joining St. Paul, Madison and Omaha, and the combined firm has approximately 200 employees.
BWBR President and CEO Terri Ulrick said the firm has had its eye on the Triangle because of the region's growth, and that RND's design experience, local relationships and market knowledge complement BWBR's expertise.

The combined firm will expand design services across science and technology, healthcare, education and public-sector projects.
