About
A design studio built on 25 years of answers.
Paul Eric Rich has spent more than 25 years within the profession of architecture: first in senior roles at national and regional firms across Charleston, Baltimore, and Charlotte, now as the owner of BROTHERS RICH, based right here in Charleston.
BROTHERS RICH began in 2013 with three brothers, John, Jim and Paul, making things together. For Paul, it was a side project while working full time at Gensler. Today it's his practice. Working with BROTHERS RICH means the person you sit down with for the first conversation is the same person who develops your plan, works through the details, and stays on the project through construction. No handoffs, no junior designer standing in for the person you actually hired.
Paul works across the Lowcountry with close attention to how a house handles light, water, shade, and the view from every side, not just the front door.
What Paul brings to a project
- 25+ years within the profession of architecture, now focused on residential work
- A Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) from Florida A&M University
- Senior-level experience at national and regional design firms before founding BROTHERS RICH
- Direct, hands-on involvement from the first conversation through construction. No handoffs
Where it started
Things We Made
Before the houses there were bicycles, crab mallets and firewood totes, made by three brothers.
Design background
Before BROTHERS RICH
Work Paul designed while at other firms. None of it is BROTHERS RICH's own work, and none of it is presented as such. It's here as evidence of what Paul knows how to do.
