History
The firm was founded in 1926, with the original partners being Arthur William Forster Bligh and Colin Jessup. After the Second World War, Athol Bretnall and Ronald Voller joined the partnership, leading to its name being changed to Bligh, Jessup, Bretnall and Partners. Graham Bligh entered the partnership in 1965.

In the late 1990s (1997 to 1999), the firm became Bligh Voller Nield by merging with Bligh Voller Architects, Lawrence Nield and Partners Australia, Grose Bradley and Pels Innes Neilson and Kosloff.

Nield became BVN Architecture in 2009 and merged with Donovan Hill in 2013 to form BVN Donovan Hill. In 2014 the practice transitioned to the name BVN.
