Ryan Faust and Christophe Bouteille this week announced the opening of their new full-service architecture and design firm, BUF Studio, at 702 SE Fifth St., Suite 30, in Bentonville.
Faust and Bouteille will serve as partners at BUF Studio.
The name of the firm refers to one of the firm’s guiding principles, “Be a buffalo,” which is derived from the notion that buffalo face the storm rather than running from it and are able to get through challenges quickly and fearlessly, according to a news release.
Prior to establishing BUF Studio, Faust and Bouteille worked together at architecture and design firm Lamar Johnson Collaborative in Bentonville.
