Belinda Stewart Architects

What Belinda Stewart Architects does

Belinda Stewart Architects is a privately held, woman-owned and led professional architecture firm founded in 1990 and headquartered in Eupora, Mississippi. The firm specializes in historic preservation, rehabilitation, and adaptive reuse of historic structures, serving primarily government clients (federal agencies including the U.S. Department of the Interior, state departments, and county/municipal boards of supervisors), educational institutions, financial institutions, religious organizations, and community/nonprofit entities across Mississippi and increasingly Tennessee. Service offerings span architectural and engineering design, grant writing and administration, downtown and community development planning, practical sustainability consulting, and existing facilities studies, with in-house grant writing credited with covering approximately 80% of project budgets.

Revenue is generated through traditional project-based architectural fees structured as a percentage of construction costs, with quotes issued per engagement. Distribution is direct: the firm maintains project-based relationships with public and institutional clients, supplemented by the BSA Plan Room (bsaplanroom.com), an online platform for distributing construction documents to contractors and vendors. Marketing relies on an integrated mix of website content, organic social (Instagram, Facebook), industry awards (AIA Mississippi, Mississippi Heritage Trust, Mississippi Main Street Association), earned media such as the Mississippi Business Journal, and radio appearances.

The core technology stack is centered on documentation and inspection tools rather than software platforms: drones, borescopes, Matterport 3D scanning, and thermal imaging are deployed for building assessment in preservation work. The firm holds a wholly owned sub-brand, The Showroom by BSA, which provides custom residential interior services from a renovated historic building in Downtown Eupora, marking the firm's only disclosed commercial adjacency outside of project commissions. The firm has been steadily recognized by state and national bodies (including a National Monument designation on a project it contributed to) and was selected in 2026 to lead the restoration of Fountainhead, a Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Usonian house.
