Where We Are and Where We Came From

The home office of Bear Mountain Design Architects Collaborative, LTD (BMD) is located in the picturesque village of Woodstock, VT. It was the historic architecture of the village and the contemporary modern architecture in the surrounding Vermont countryside combined with the inspiration of local artist and architects Francis Gyra, Charles Helmer and Fredrick Wilder which inspired company founder Harold W. Mayhew RA, AIA to pursue a career in architecture. BMD routinely collaborates with industry leaders such as Henry J. Coupe PE (refrigeration specialist) and Edward F. Dumont (architectural illustrator) and numerous engineering and construction specialists to provide the very best integrated design services possible.
