Established in 2004, Blalock + Partners Architectural Design Studio is an award-winning firm of architects and design professionals located in Salt Lake City, Utah. Directed by its principal and founder, Kevin Blalock, AIA, the firm currently holds licenses and practices in Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho and Wyoming.

The firm’s endeavor is to create thoughtful and intriguing design solutions with particular sensitivity to a client’s site and budgetary constraints. Each project’s challenge carries with it the underlying principle of creating architecture that is harmonious with the natural environment while aspiring to uplift the human spirit.  A project’s eventual design solution draws inspiration from man’s relationship to, and reliance on, the environment; taking into account the evolution of time, changes in season, passage of day to night.  This philosophy influences and invokes design solutions that are specific to the user’s needs, the client’s goals and budget.

Blalock + Partners offers a full-service, collaborative approach to all projects. Drawing on a diverse background and layers of expertise in architecture, interiors, programming and master planning, the firm does not distinguish between interior and exterior design.  Rather, team members promote design ideas that allow the solutions to seamlessly evolve from exterior to interior; from large scale master plans and site developments to sensitive additions, renovations and adaptive re-use.
