BOISE, ID and SALT LAKE CITY — erstad and FFKR Architects are joining together in a collaborative merger that brings two like-minded design firms into one shared future.

Built on a foundation of strong client relationships and community-focused work, erstad, an architecture and interior design firm, has served the Boise and Treasure Valley region for 28 years and is excited to announce it is joining forces with FFKR Architects, a multi-disciplined architecture and design firm known for its commitment to community-focused projects. This merger brings together the strengths of both teams, expanding their ability to serve clients and communities. By working as one, erstad and FFKR are positioned to take on more complex projects, offer broader services, and make a greater impact across the region.

“Different is good” isn’t just a slogan; it reflects the way erstad works through meaningful community involvement, lasting relationships, and creative, tailored solutions that reflect the uniqueness of every client and every project.

FFKR Architects is celebrating 50 years of transforming ideas into iconic places. FFKR believes the most impactful spaces come from deep collaboration – between perspectives, between people, between disciplines. Like many beams supporting a single structure, our niche studios, each with their own focused expertise, all move as one team.

The merger reflects a step forward for both firms—one that enhances what already exists while opening the door to new opportunities. Together, erstad and FFKR look forward to continuing our legacy of bringing design excellence and innovation to our clients and communities.
