Brost Architects
Family-owned architecture firm in Eastern Iowa. We craft unique, cost-effective spaces through deep collaboration and lasting relationships.
Founded in 1968 in Cedar Rapids by David L. Brost, Sr., we moved to our purpose-built Hiawatha office in 2005 — a space we designed ourselves. For over five decades, we have shaped Eastern Iowa's built environment with integrity and craft.
Led by President David L. Brost, Jr., AIA, our close-knit team ensures the same professionals guide your project from first sketch through final construction. We listen, we collaborate, and we exceed expectations.
"We design spaces that enrich people's lives and enhance the communities in which they live."
