In 1979, Steve Siebert began working at the 100-year-old architectural firm of Hamme-Associates, located in York, Pennsylvania. Progressing from a draftsman to job-captain, Steve worked on 125 diverse church projects in just seven years. Over the next few years, he worked for two different firms and had the opportunity to work on several more church designs before earning his License in Architecture.
In the spring of 1993, Steve with partner Steve Campbell began a fast-growing dynamic design build-firm: Campbell-Siebert, Inc. While the company provided design/build for all types of commercial facilities, they fast became known for designing and building churches. Working across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, and Delaware, the firm worked with 60 churches over the next nine years and set itself-apart as a specialized Church and Ministry provider.
In the early 2000’s Steve joined the Cogun Team and started designing for churches exclusively. One of-the-nations largest Church Design-Building companies, Cogun, was located in Ohio, providing services throughout the United States. From Cogun’s Florida office, he served South of Orlando to the Florida Keys. During his tenure there, Cogun works with several prominent ministries, including Elevation Church, Pastor Stephen Furtick, and North Pointe Community, Pastor Andy Stanley.
In the spring of 2013, Steve Siebert Architecture provides architectural services to Palm Beach and Broward Counties from their Boynton – Delray location.
Steve also travels the states of Florida, New Jersey, and Texas for select clients and churches. Our Team of six includes Architects, Project Architects, and Drafters with over 100 cumulative years of design experience. Because the Pastors Architect prioritizes ministry, there is no project too small or too large for the Pastors Architect.
