DLA Architects

We're an architectural design firm specializing in creating spaces that WORK for our Clients. We love designing spaces that reflect our client's unique brand, personality and mission. To do this, we roll up our sleeves, listen, and learn about what's important to them. From minor renovations to complicated additions or ground-up new construction, we are here to transform your vision into reality. It is rare to find a firm that has such a passion for their profession. Their intelligent decisions, guidance, organizational ability, and willingness to 'go the distance' with their clients is truly remarkable.

We are a full-service architectural firm with a broad range of experience from tenant build-outs, renovations, and additions to new buildings. We specialize in public facilities for vibrant communities, such as schools, park districts and municipalities. Our philosophy is "Form Follows Learning." We believe that our client's philosophy should guide the design in a direction that allows the architectural fabric of the building to inspire their function.
