Our Purpose

Wisconsin-Based Architecture Firm With a National Presence

ABOUT GROTH | CEDARBURG | MILWAUKEE | APPLETON

Our Foundation

We exist to create and serve. As architects, it is our responsibility to do our part to build strong communities. Our design practices are founded on creating spaces that nurture individuals, organizations, and communities. We push the discipline in order to innovate and share new perspectives on our built environment where we work, live and play. Our built environments are reflective of each unique story they tell. 

We create from curiosity. We design to inspire. And through architecture, we leave behind a small imprint of today for generations to come.

Employee talent is the cornerstone of our success.

The staff of GROTH Design Group offers value by seeking effective and innovative design solutions in collaboration with our clients and partners, with a respectful approach toward mutual understanding. Our employees create value for our clients and in turn, we invest in the development of personal and technical skills of each employee. We also like to have fun along the way.

Our Promise

We create places that respect the individual, the community, and the environment.

We design places that are functional, financially responsible, yet imaginative — effective and meaningful places supporting our client’s mission and vision. Achieving such places involves meeting a complex array of challenges with creative design solutions — the fundamentals of envisioning the future begins with collaborative communication, fully understanding needs, setting realistic goals, and eagerly exploring opportunities.
