Ware Malcomb is an award-winning, full-service design firm providing professional architecture, planning, interior design, civil engineering, branding, and building measurement services to corporate, commercial, and residential developers as well as public and institutional clients throughout the world. The firm provides innovative design solutions, sophisticated management of projects, and community and industry involvement for the successful implementation of ideas, according to company officials. In April, the firm celebrated its 50th anniversary as a company.

Ware Malcomb has experienced consistent, tenfold revenue growth over the last decade, according to officials. With a focus on commercial real estate-driven design, Ware Malcomb makes "future-proofing"–maximizing the long-term real estate value of its projects–a priority. The firm is equally committed to innovation and recently implemented the third iteration of its continuous improvement program, titled WM 5.0. Through WM 5.0, team members across the firm submitted over 1,000 ideas on topics such as culture, innovation, design, and operations, the firm reports.

"Even though we've been around for fifty years, we have placed on the Inc. 5000 fastest growing private company list four years in a row," says Gary Drew, Regional Vice President of Ware Malcomb, who oversees the overall growth and management of the firm's Pacific Northwest region and has worked at Ware Malcomb for over 24 years. "We have proven our ability to address all issues of a project through our excellence in design, rigorous attention to program requirements, and superior service. Our clients are a primary reason for our growth and success over the last fifty years. Our people provide best in class design services and world class results. As a core value, we believe our success rests in the hands of our people and their commitment to the future."

Ware Malcomb actively supports the communities where it has offices. "For our fiftieth  anniversary, and as part of our WM Community initiative for Spirit Week, we held a weeklong food drive to gather donations for the United Way and local food banks," notes Drew. "United Way is an organization we've proudly partnered with for twenty-three years." As a company, Ware Malcomb has raised more than $700,000 to fight for the health, education, and financial stability of people in its communities. Last year alone, the firm raised more than $58,000 to support United Way's efforts.

Founded as Ware & Malcomb Architects, Inc. by Bill Ware and Bill Malcomb in 1972, Ware Malcomb focused on commercial office, industrial, corporate office, and tenant improvement projects through the 1980s, according to officials. The firm expanded to Northern California from Irvine in the late 1990s. Its first office at Hacienda opened in 1998. It moved to its current office, where 55 employees work, in 2014. Today Ware Malcom has 27 offices located throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Brazil.
