John F. Orsini

As a partner in BSHM, John is a firm leader in institutional projects with specialization in PK-12 education facilities. He began practicing architecture in 1991, joining BSHM in 2008.

With an undergraduate degree in fine and professional arts, John brings an aesthetic eye to arts facilities, libraries, and educational buildings. He carries his unique vision throughout projects from programming and schematic design through contract administration. He understands and balances the relationships between the functional and visual quality of space, the realities of project budgets, and the importance of carefully guiding design throughout the construction process.

John is dedicated to PK-12 school design and construction and has gained experience in all aspects of Ohio Facilities Construction Commission (OFCC) projects. John believes that PK-12 schools are the heart of a community, and he loves seeing children, parents, and faculty experience their new learning environment.
