Wilson Butler Architects


Scott Butler, AIA is one of the founding partners of Boston-based Wilson Butler Architects, a nationally renowned studio dedicated to architecture for the arts and entertainment. Scott brings innovative design and a deeply committed responsiveness to the unique challenges of each project, whether it is a performing arts center, arts educational facility, historic theatre, or state-of-the art entertainment venue.

The firm’s success is the result of the collaborative approach and unique tools that he and the team at WBA have developed over the years. Scott believes that the best design comes from a team commitment to transparently explore each individual project’s physical context, programming aspirations, and patron experience, prior to considering design solutions. This has led to his designs being celebrated for their operational success, patron joy, and timeless beauty. He has worked nationally and internationally on more than 100 performance, arts education, and entertainment projects.
