ABOUT OUR NAME

The name of our firm evolved from a case study completed by founder and principal, Jeffrey Ahl. Prior to starting the firm, Jeff led a study to determine how architectural design impacts the quality of life for those living in senior care environments. Concluding that the greatest contributing factors for quality of life were the culture and the relationships within the home, he desired to apply those factors to his approach to architectural services. More than a name, we strive to understand each client’s culture (cu) and the relationships (re) within their organization to better serve their needs through our designs and services. This founding principle is thus incorporated into our name; cu + re, arCuretecture.

AWARD WINNING

Founder and Principal, Jeff Ahl,
was awarded the 2024 LeadingAge Nebraska
Excellence in Innovation Award.

Jeff and team have been important players and accommodate the different projects delivery styles we often try. I appreciate the thought process that goes into working with the existing spaces. Effort goes into understanding what we might find or need to overcome during construction and gets communicated on the drawings sets.
