Hello and welcome to my web site.  My name is Bud Dietrich and I am an architect located in Tampa Bay area of Florida and a certificate holder from the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB).  I work from my home office and provide full architectural services exclusively in the single family residential market.  I am licensed in Illinois, Florida, New Jersey & Wisconsin.  I am a graduate of the New Jersey Institute of Technology and have worked on projects in four continents.  Since 1996 I have operated my own firm.

 

My work is committed to five guiding principles:

1.  To add value to our clients' lives through the alignment of their living patterns with their environment.

 

2.  To achieve the extraordinary within the constraints of budget, site and program.

3.  To add value to the community by respecting the existing fabric of houses and streets, keeping one eye to the past and one to the future as I design the environments of today.

4.  To add value to our lives by having fun with what we do, taking pride in our work and aiming to exceed our clients' expectations.

5.  To add value to our profession by expanding the architect's universe to include the commonplace and modest along with the high style and
avant-garde.
