Central to the South Sound Region and more widely known as Washington State’s Capital, Olympia is buzzing with culture and community. Situated in this deeply enriched community, KMB has thrived since its founding in 1987 and was named one of the Fastest Growing Companies by the Business Examiner.

Earning client trust requires a combination of knowledge, responsibility, teamwork, and commitment. Over our 35 years in business, we have nurtured and cared for client relationships, creating a bond of trust that delivers outstanding results.

Clients include K-12 and higher education institutions, tribal nations, healthcare, security design, and administrative, municipal, local, and State government among others. KMB also recognizes the importance of green design with several of our team members holding LEED accreditation.
