LBL is a planning and architectural firm with a significant project portfolio in health care and academic research projects, primarily on the West Coast.

Founded in 1986, LBL successfully employs BIM on all projects, and utilizes the technology for quality documentation and interfacing with project scheduling and costs.

Effective January 1, 2015, LBL Architects merged with Perkins Eastman, a top international design and architecture firm. The merger will significantly build upon the established practices - particularly healthcare - of both firms and diversify our combined expertise, particularly on the West Coast. The combined international firm will total 880 employees, adding enhanced resources, client value, and opportunities for employees. The firms combined their practices in San Francisco, California, and are growing the Los Angeles practice.
