The firm focused mainly on residential properties in its early years and expanded into apartment buildings. Boillot and Lauck designed 23 homes in the Coleman Highlands neighborhood.[3] They also designed the Parriott House for oilman Foster Brooks Parriott in Tulsa, Oklahoma.[4]

The firm was chief architect for Sedalia Air Force Base near Knob Noster, Missouri.[5]
