Our Story
More Than Just a Firm

Where We Started
713 Architects was founded in 2018 by Tim Barnett. After making his career at a national firm and leading the development team for an international restaurant company, he set out to create a firm that values each client and project as unique. Shane Wiles joined 713 Architects in July of that same year, coming from a long tenured position at a nationally recognized Healthcare Design Firm. Since then, we have grown into a full-service firm known for our creativity and attention to detail. Each project we undertake is an opportunity to blend functionality with beauty, creating spaces that inspire and uplift.
Where We’ve Been
Our journey has been marked by a series of successful projects and satisfied clients. We have had the privilege of working on a diverse range of projects, from intimate residential homes to large commercial spaces. Our growth and success are a testament to our commitment to excellence and our unwavering dedication to our clients’ visions.
Where We’re Going
As we continue to evolve, our core mission remains the same: to design spaces that not only meet the practical needs of our clients but also reflect their unique personalities and aspirations. We believe that architecture has the power to transform lives and communities, and we are dedicated to making a positive impact through our work.
