BVN is one of Australia’s largest architecture practices, with studios in Sydney, Brisbane, New York and London.

History

The firm was founded in Brisbane in 1926 by Arthur Bligh, with Colin Jessup joining him later as a partner. After the Second World War, Athol Bretnall and Ronald Voller joined the partnership, leading to its name being changed to Bligh, Jessup, Bretnall and Partners. Arthur Bligh's son Graham entered the partnership in 1965, followed by Ronald Voller's son Jon.[citation needed]

The firm was renamed Bligh Voller Architects in the early 1990s. In the late 1990s (1997 to 1999), the firm became Bligh Voller Nield, through mergers with Sydney-based firm Lawrence Nield and Partners Australia, Grose Bradley and Melbourne-based firm Pels Innes Neilson and Kosloff.[citation needed]

Bligh Voller Nield became BVN Architecture in 2009[1] and merged with Donovan Hill in 2013 to form BVN Donovan Hill. In 2014 the practice transitioned to the name BVN.[citation needed]

BVN is a large architectural firm, employing over 300 staff. Its portfolio includes projects such as airports, commercial and public buildings.[2] Beyond its work in Australia, it has also designed facilities for the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and 2012 London Olympic Games.[3]
