"Aaron (Bohrer) has a striking modernist aesthetic. I never thought I could get that kind of talent on my budget. Bohrer's commitment to use extraordinary design instead of expensive materials has resulted in a house that sports a textured, dimensional finish of corrugated metal and concrete board with some stucco. I get a whole lot more value and quality for what you usually can build a house for in Santa Fe." 

– Greg Glazner


“We selected Aaron for this important task of designing our 21st century responsible home, because it was evident upon meeting with him, discussing our philosophy and seeing many of his unique and well-designed homes that he was not only an experienced, excellent architect, he was also an excellent artist in the purist interpretation of the word..”

– Jack Sprague


“Without his experience and diligent guidance, we would never have been able to proceed forward with our home while living eight-hundred miles away from Santa Fe. In addition to these important issues, Aaron listened very carefully to our needs, goals, budget, and desires, paid close attention to each detail and integrated these issues into all levels of his design. His architectural advice from the very first design drafts to his final detailed drawings and to his careful assistance with the selection of all materials finishes, plumbing, windows and lighting, down to the smallest nuances like stonework, textural issues and colors, resulted in a place that met our expectations, that we enjoy living, in and are proud to call our home.”

– Michael Estes

Aaron was our architect for the renovation of our mid-century home. As a designer, he designed both a beautiful remodel of the existing house and an AIA award-winning addition of a master suite. As a project manager, Aaron oversaw all phases of the new construction and expertly worked through the many challenges of a remodel, while acting as our advocate. Throughout the project, we were greatly reassured by Aaron's experience, knowledge, resourcefulness and calm composure. Thanks to Aaron, we have a home that is original, elegant and lovely.
