Meet Brian Homiak, Managing Director of Architectural Solutions at Henricksen

Since embarking on his journey at Henricksen’s Chicago office in 2012, Brian has been an integral part of the team, starting his career in the Architectural Solutions Group (ASG), where he initially honed his design skills. Over time, he transitioned to various other roles within the ASG group and has worked in multiple markets. His dedication to his work is unparalleled, and his vast experience in the field makes him a valuable asset to the team.

One of Brian’s most memorable projects was at the 110 N Wacker building in Chicago. This colossal undertaking spanned over two and a half years and covered 16 floors in the Wacker Tower. Project partners included well-known organizations like JLL and Bank of America. Brian attributes much of the project’s success to his designers, project management, and Installation team, who worked tirelessly to ensure completion on time and to the client’s satisfaction.

Brian recognized the importance of staying abreast of the latest insights and advancements in a rapidly evolving industry. To achieve this, Brian monitors market trends and conducts thorough product research by engaging with those who see the most change firsthand. Much insight comes from dialogues with Allsteel team members to understand how Allsteel sees and responds to the market. Brian also engages closely with the A&D community and General contractors to expand perspective knowledge of the market and understand their experiences, pain points, and solutions.

“One of the things that genuinely sets Henricksen apart in the ASG space is our strong understanding of processes and coordination efforts required to execute a walls project successfully,” Brian explained. “Our unique strengths are our team’s knack for effective communication and dedication to improving processes and delivering the best results. Every team member is committed to mastering their knowledge, knowing what we should know and need to learn, and showing a commitment to our clients.”

Originally from Detroit, Brian resides in Chicago with his husband, Aaron. Outside the office, his passions are traveling, spending time with friends and family, and distance running. He’s an avid runner and has completed four world marathon majors and ten total marathons. His passion for running mirrors his dedication at Henricksen.
