Robert S. Baclawski - Architect
I began my career in 1984. For the first 2 years, the work I performed consisted of consulting services to architects, subdivision planning, and speculative home design. I worked for a firm started in 1967 as a professional partnership corporation consisting of 3 architects who lived in Santa Fe, but were employed at firms in Albuquerque. The senior partner was Philippe Register. The other partners were Terrance Ross and James Brunet. Mr. Ross left the firm before 1970. Mr. Register and Mr. Brunet remained partners until 1980 when James Brunet retired. Philippe Register continued the firm by himself by himself as Philippe Register & Associates until 1991 when it was merged with Robert Baclawski - Architect.
I had been providing Philippe Register & Associates with architectural consulting services since 1986, when I returned to the Santa Fe area from Dallas, Texas. Philippe register went into semi-retirement in 1991. I worked on a variety of projects during my internship including large commercial (mid-rise office projects), large residential (5,000 sf to 15,000 sf), multi-family (apartments and duplex developments including 2 HUD projects), city planning (city of Euless, Texas) residential remodels and several commercial retail space interior finish out projects.
When I relocated to New Mexico in 1986 this firm continued to provide the same type of services with the additions of some small commercial work. I have completed projects in the Santa Fe area ranging from 12,200 sf residential compounds. These projects included 3 houses in the La Tierra area, 1 in Vista Redondo, 1 in Casas de San Juan, 2 renovations in Santa Fe, 6 projects in the Espanola area and several projects in other areas of Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado. I was retained by RJN Construction Management, Inc. to provide architectural design and engineering services for several design-build, tribal projects on the Navajo Nation. I currently provide in-house design and engineering services for RJN.
