At Ammon Heisler Sachs architects, we turn a vision into a space built for experiences to happen.
Based in the heart of Baltimore, we’re helping build places where we live, learn, work, and play.

Since our founding in 2008, we’ve worked with clients to create designs with function. We’ve worked with all kinds of local businesses and community partners, so we understand the unique needs of a hospital versus a retail bank versus a hotel. All of our designs blend function, industry-leading practices, and our experience within our clients’ industries because we understand that good design leads to better business. Clients can trust us to guide their vision from creation to construction to completion. We’re in this with them. Not only because we believe in what they want to build, but because we consider ourselves a part of every community that we serve.
