Withee Malcolm Architects, an award-winning planning, architecture and interiors firm headquartered in Torrance, CA and in its 44th year of business, was acquired by Iowa-based BSB Design. Withee Malcolm will collaborate with ten other offices in major markets across the country and expands BSB Design’s reputation in the multifamily and affordable housing, commercial, industrial, interiors and sectors.
“This is an exciting step in each of our firm’s evolutions,” noted Dan Withee, co-founder of Withee Malcolm. “For Withee Malcolm’s clients, employees, and for Dale Malcolm and myself, the benefits include an enhanced ability to focus on our core design strengths, which will allow for greater innovation and improvements on our projects and stronger relationships with our clients and collaborators. Ultimately, Withee Malcolm joining BSB Design allows our firm to be a better ‘us’ across a national platform.”
“Our two companies and respective teams are all very aligned in our thinking and our passion for doing right by our clients and the consumers they serve,” said Dan Swift, AIA, President & CEO of BSB Design. “We are poised to make our collective futures bigger and brighter than they could have been alone.”
Strogoff Consulting introduced the firms, worked closely with Withee Malcolm’s principals, attorney and accountant, and was the primary contact with BSB Design throughout the merger process. The transaction entailed an extensive due diligence process and leadership assessments.
