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. Working with DLA we have found their budgets to be very accurate and the number of change orders almost non-existent. This means I can plan with confidence and I don't have to go back to my Board and explain things.
We have found DLA to demonstrate an excellent ability to work with our district in a collaborative relationship throughout the design and construction process. The firm has shown an ability to successfully work with contractors in both construction management and general contracting situations.

Back in '83, Bruce Dahlquist and Dwain Lutzow joined their families for dinner.
As the evening progressed, the lively conversation moved from the upcoming summer release of "Return of the Jedi" and that new TV show "The A-Team" to the lofty topic of Great Architecture.
Here at the dinner table, in the company of friends, is where the cornerstone of our firm was set.
The two founding partners agreed that Great Architecture doesn't just come from someone in a black turtleneck and frameless glasses, with an ego bigger than the building; it comes from someone who can roll up their sleeves, get over the idea that flashy is always better, and know their client's vision.

Our philosophy is "Form Follows Learning."
We believe that our client's educational philosophy should guide the design in a direction that allows the architectural fabric of the building to inspire learning.
We challenge our clients through DLA's customized 21st Century Educational Design Process in order to create designs that not only meet current needs, but enable clients to forecast and prepare for their future.
