FIRM HISTORY AND PROFILE:
NSPJ Architects has built a long-standing tradition of excellence in service and design,
commitment to quality and devotion to create the best lifestyle environments for our clients.
In collaboration our Architects, Interior Designers, and Landscape Architects work together to
create a truly holistic design approach for all types of projects.
The fi rm was founded in June of 1961 by Howard Nearing, AIA and since its inception has
received commissions for more than 5,500 projects including:
• offi ce buildings • multi-famliy apartments
• retail buildings • institutional buildings
• mixed use buildings & plazas • hospital campuses & courtyards
• hospitality • retail roll-out & tenant fi nish
• large scale land use planning • municipal & private streetscapes
• master planned communities • shopping centers
• recreational facilities & amenity centers • warehouse buildings & landscapes
The fi rm has, since 1965, been located in the Kansas City metro area, and has been involved
in the tremendous growth that has characterized Kansas City. The fi rm’s founders strongly
believed in the importance of respecting the context of carefully proportioned and richly detailed
architecture and effi cient interior space planning. Whether the project was the remodeling
and addition to a historic existing building or a new construction, we believe exterior design
and detailing should respect the existing structure and properly blend into its neighborhood,
while the interior spaces should most importantly serve our client’s daily needs.
The fi rm has consistently attracted individuals who enthusiastically embrace the fi rm’s design
traditions and its 35 current members collectively bring over 500 years of experience to this
design process. The fi rm’s present staff is comprised of two Co-Presidents (Bill Prelogar
and Rick Jones) leading a team
of thirteen registered architects,
fi fteen intern architects, two
registered landscape architects,
one landscape designer, and
three offi ce administrators.
NSPJ offers the fl exibility to shift
staff to any project big or small
as requested by our clients.

FIRM PHILOSOPHY:
We are, at heart, designers who love what we do, but we would fail if we ignored the interpersonal
relationships that are the essence of what we do. On a daily basis, we work with people, both inside
and outside our offi ce. At the core of our business practice is a strong dedication to providing the best
possible service on all levels and in every way for those people. We have learned that to do this you
must nurture strong relationships. Doing so enables us to better know and therefore better serve the
client, contractor and colleague alike.
We at NSPJ Architects require a great deal of ourselves. We must be hard-working and devoted to
seeing every problem or opportunity through to its success. We must maintain integrity – being honest,
open and straightforward toward all. We hold ourselves responsible and accountable. We must be
conscientious and respectful in every way, giving credence and recognition where it is due. There must
be loyalty that remembers and rewards the hard-work & loyalty of others.
Our devotion and commitment to successful relationships runs consistently throughout NSPJ. Being
an employee-owned company, we have a vested interest in one another and in each other’s success.
We nurture an atmosphere of collaboration that seamlessly incorporates all levels of experience, as
well as the different disciplines of Architecture, Landscape Architecture and Interior Design. Though we
may have different roles, responsibilities and levels of experience, we maintain a team mentality that’s
respectful of the individual while understanding that together we make a greater whole. We cultivate
an environment where all associates have an equal opportunity for advancement and growth. We are
a group that enjoys having fun together. Beyond just helping us get along, we believe this fosters an
environment that nurtures inventive and creative thought. Not only does it make for better design, but
we believe that for us to be successful we should enjoy what we are doing and with whom we are doing
it.
The last fi fty three years have served us well in teaching us what works. We hope your experience
with us either has or will convince you that we at NSPJ Architects will always be striving for perfection
in design and service in everything we do.

DESIGN APPROACH:
Since the fi rm’s inception, it has provided comprehensive architectural design and site planning
services on over 5,500 projects, encompassing a diverse range of project types and complexities. The
fi rm employs an energetic and creative staff of architects, landscape architects, interior designers, and
planners with extensive experience in:
Project Programming | Planning | Design | Contract Preparation
Bidding & Negotiation | Construction Administration
NSPJ applies our experience in a wide variety of new construction projects and developments, as well
as in additions and remodels of existing projects.
We are particularly proud of the number of clients who have not only referred us to other clients but also
have returned to us for additional projects.
The fi rm is a collaborative design studio oriented organization and has been proud of its success in
designing structures in all Architectural styles, from the most detailed classical designs, to the refi ned
simplicities of contemporary Architecture. While being design conscious we also focus on solving
the problems of function, providing for ease of operation, conservation of energy and resources and
utilizing low maintenance materials.
Our philosophy is to provide the highest quality construction documents on any type of project we
do. This standard is built on a long history of luxury custom residential work whose discerning clients
expect a highly developed and thorough design. Each set of drawings must meet the elevated
expectations that the content be detailed, comprehensive and intelligible. When developing the
construction documents we ask the question “what information is needed to build this project effi ciently
and effectively?” We have a designated QA/QC architect, with over 40 years of experience, who reviews
all projects for integrity prior to release. Our construction documents are highly regarded by contractors
and sub-contractors on their completeness. This process results in projects with a low percentage of
fi eld change orders and a greater ease of construction.
NSPJ prides itself on the fl exibility to successfully work in Urban environments as well as New Suburban
developments. Through adaptive reuse of our city’s historic infrastructure, we revel in the preservation
and enhancement of the inner city fabric. Our development in urban environments sensitivity integrate
themselves into the neighborhoods for a cohesive, welcoming appearance and feel.
NSPJ has designed buildings using all types of construction in both traditional and innovative uses,
including: wood frame; brick, block and steel; poured and precast concrete. The fi rm has maintained a
general practice of architecture and believes it can better approach a client’s needs by having a broad
range of experience in many building types, construction methods and practices leading to innovative
solutions to each client’s unique circumstances. We are proud of our past experience and look forward
to using that experience to develop new ways of exceeding our clients’ needs.

QUALITY ASSURANCE:
Detailed design drawings along with the completeness and accuracy of our schematic design
and fi nal construction documents are a hallmark of NSPJ’s performance on projects. Along
with friendly and knowledgeable personalities, our level of detail is second to none. With
multiple eyes combing the design drawings for various pieces of information, we fi nd that the
team members take a great deal of pride in ownership of their respective work. The fi nal
coordination of the construction documents is completed by our “Quality Control” department.
This is a vital last step in our production process that allows an individual with over 40 years
of masterful construction document, code interpretation and specifi cation writing experience
to review the project with a set of eyes that are separate from the team noted herein. This
makes for a successful product to release to Cities, bidders and the owners whom can
take confi dence in the fact that the project has been completed with the highest degree
of skill and care. From there, during Construction Administration we will pro-actively act
on the owners behalf to protect their interests and provide the project scope in full that the
client has contracted for. Shop drawings, pay applications, conversations with the General
Contractors, etc. will all be handled in an expedient manner and be a priority for our staff to
complete. At project closet out, as-built drawing information will be well organized and turned
over to the client for future record and reference.
