Serving Clients Nationwide. Since 1935.
Plunkett Raysich Architects family is pleased to welcome Align Architecture and Planning and NoackLittle Architecture and Interiors to the OnePRA Family! Both firms bring a wealth of expertise and additional insight and resources to the firm.
We Are Client Collaborators
PRA, a client-focused and collaborative architecture and interior design firm, has been serving clients since 1935. Originally founded in Milwaukee Wisconsin, the firm now helps clients across the nation from offices in Milwaukee and Madison Wisconsin, Sarasota Florida, Austin Texas, and Waterloo Iowa, and through strategic partnerships with other design, engineering, and construction firms in all parts of the nation.
We Are Design Chameleons
Our architects, interior designers, and graphic artists are flexible and work in any “design style” that best reinforces the image and culture of each client. Although stylistically flexible, all PRA designers strive for enduring quality, affordability, equity, and sustainability. The PRA project portfolio illustrates this design flexibility, including many projects recognized by our peers with design and community awards.
Our talented design professionals exist only to further the mission of our clients. We hope to speak with you, one day, about your design needs.

Church Design
At its most impactful, liturgical architecture and religious design can address the range of human needs from the basic to the spiritual, and experiencing the best examples can be truly inspiring and uplifting.

Civic Design
What these facilities share is a basis in public trust; taxpayers expect that elected officials will ensure their money is well spent to contribute to the health, safety, and enrichment of the community.

Corporate Design
Between 1950 and 2020, the average working adult in the U.S. spent approximately one-third of their waking hours at their job. As industrial and agricultural work gave way to the service industry, many of those hours were spent by people sitting at a desk in an office building. Those are the people we are dedicated to serving.

Healthcare Design
Healthcare services are changing rapidly with advances in diagnostic tools, enhanced care protocols, and the evolving retailification of services. This environment requires careful use of capital to maximize investment returns and plan flexibility that is built-in to support an unknown future.

Interior Architecture
Holistic design is a core tenet of our philosophy at PRA, frequently manifesting itself when we strive to blend the exterior and interior design into a unified expression of the client’s vision. We provide full architectural design with interior design, which is often thought of as the selection of the color palette or materials used within a building. It includes that, of course. But it also includes the often complex integration and accommodation of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, the sculpting of space to best serve its purpose, and the manipulation of light, color, textures and views to enhance the user experience.

School Design
We believe schools are at the heart of our communities and the foundation of our society. Providing learning spaces that engage and support educators, students, and families is fundamental. We feel a unique responsibility to help improve school design and share our knowledge in the hopes it increases opportunities for individuals and communities, alike.

Senior Living Design
Since 1935, PRA has collaborated with Senior Living providers throughout the nation to provide engaging and supportive living environments for seniors. During this time our practice has evolved as the methods for providing care for the aging have evolved away from medical models to models that allow residents to thrive in independent, active communities and transition in place as their health changes.

Unbuilt Architecture
Real-world circumstances don’t always result in a finished project. Unbuilt Architecture exists in every firm. The truth is that sometimes imagination, creativity, and problem-solving live on only on our drafting boards. Or in the drawers of our plan files (or in the ones and zeros of our storage devices).
