We are honored to be among 13 firms in Iowa recognized for fostering a workplace where emerging professionals can grow and thrive.

We’re proud to share that two members of our team participated in the recent AIA Iowa Search for Shelter Design Charrette, supporting New Visions Homeless Services in Council Bluffs.
It’s an honor to contribute our time and design expertise to initiatives that create meaningful impact in our communities. Thank you to AIA Iowa and all the volunteers who made this event possible!

As we wrap up 2025 and look ahead to 2026, we’re thankful for an incredible year. Warm wishes and a Merry Christmas from the RMH Architects team. ✨🎄

Thinking about using a pole building for more than agricultural purposes?

Before you get too deep in the planning, we encourage you to contact your local officials for permit requirements. The cities and counties in the Des Moines metro area have been enforcing full building code design on these pole buildings not used for agricultural purposes. Most pole buildings, originally designed for agriculture use, fall very short of the structural capacity required by code.

Dallas and Polk counties require a foundation design at a minimum, while residential and commercial buildings may need a full structural design for gravity, wind, and snow. After discussing permit requirements with your local officials, contact Tometich Engineering.

Tometich Engineering has the experience and expertise to help design your building to code.

Construction is underway at ACTORS Theater in Ames.
Tometich Engineering is pleased to work with ACTORS and RMH Architects in the remodeling project for theater seating to enhance the audience experience during shows. This project shows just how the community supports having a great space for the arts and promises to be a wonderful enhancement to the theater. We enjoyed contributing to this project and look forward to seeing ACTORS theater thrive as a lively community hub.

Construction is progressing at the Hardin County Conservation Lodge. With foundations and slabs in place, exterior wall framing is underway, and truss installation will follow soon. We’re excited to see this project advancing toward completion!

Happy to be helping out with this project in downtown Nevada! More will be coming soon.
