Our Story

Bill Fornaciari is the founder and owner of the firm. Following his education in Architecture and Historic Preservation at Roger Williams University, Bill honed his craft interning in Boston and San Francisco. His range of experiences from high end residential to commercial projects enabled him to open his own practice in 1995.

Bill’s experience started early, growing up in a family of framers. Because of this, he works closely with builders to achieve the best results for the client, builder and contractor alike. From day one he focuses on and listens to the unique needs of each client and incorporates the details of their lifestyle into each design.

Now with over 35-years of residential design experience, bf architects, under the direction of Bill Fornaciari, consistently produces projects that provide clients with a conduit to shape their dreams of living in new homes, additions and renovations.
