In 1906 Willard C. Northup (1882-1942) founded an architectural firm in Winston-Salem. Early work of his firm included residential, commercial, and institutional buildings in the Winston-Salem area. Northup was President of the North Carolina State Board of Architectural Examiners and a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects of North Carolina.
In 1913 Leet Alexander O'Brien (1891-1963) joined Northup and in 1925 the firm became Northup and O'Brien. O'Brien served for two terms as President of the NCAIA. Notable projects by Northup and O'Brien included the Woman's College (now UNC-Greensboro) Library, the N.C. State Office Building and Durham Life Insurance Building in Raleigh, and the Medical School and Hospital at UNC-Chapel Hill (Architectural Guide Winston-Salem Forsyth County, Winston-Salem Section NCAIA, 1978).
In 1927, Luther Snow Lashmit, a Winston-Salem native who had studied architecture at Carnegie Mellon University and at the Fontainebleau Ecole des Beaux Arts in France, joined Northup and O'Brien.
