Navona Architecture LLC, founded in 2019 in Cheyenne, Wyoming, represents a philosophy where architecture serves communities and fosters meaningful connections. Established by Stephanie Bedinghaus, the firm is founded upon the belief that architects have a role in addressing the needs and aspirations of their communities. The team draws inspiration from the passions that clients have for their businesses and local environments, resulting in thoughtfully designed spaces that enhance the way people live, work, and play.
The name 'Navona' pays homage to Piazza Navona in Rome, Italy—a place that inspires beauty and history, much like the firm’s design ethos. Bedinghaus’s experiences abroad ignited a vision of creating an architectural practice focused on serving and collaborating with the community, blending the old with the new to build resilient spaces that resonate with their significance for generations to come.
At Navona Architecture, the approach to design emphasizes a reciprocal relationship between built environments and their inhabitants, ensuring that the functionality and aesthetics of a space cater to its users while promoting a sense of belonging and health. The firm is dedicated to creating architecture that stands the test of time and adapts to the changing needs of future generations while remaining committed to sustainability and well-being.
Whether working on residential, commercial, or community projects, Navona Architecture aims to provide clients with spaces that encourage connections and inspire a shared identity within the community. Their mission to innovate, listen, and create empowering environments extends far beyond their physical constructions, reflecting a commitment to fostering environments where individuals and communities can thrive.
