Holst’s New Certification

Holst Architecture is proud to announce it is now the largest certified women-owned architecture firm in the State of Oregon (WBE #10644)!

As an Equal Opportunity Employer of 36 talented design professionals, Holst Architecture recognizes the role that a diverse workplace has in creating a fair and inclusive work environment.

Now, after 25 years of operation and a transition of ownership in 2017, Holst is owned by Kim Wilson, Kevin Valk, Dave Otte, and Renée Strand. These four partners are committed to a thriving, open studio as we continue to create meaningful architecture that people love.

How do I become an architect? What is the difference between Architecture and Engineering? Can I job shadow an architect for a day? How do architects turn designs into buildings? Can I tour your office with my child? What roles can I perform in architecture? How do I know if architecture is the field for me? Would an architect speak to my class about architecture? What degrees do I need to be an architect?

Holst invites curious minds to ask questions about architecture.
