ODE Architecture is a studio for architects and urbanists who design authentic buildings and neighborhoods serving our clients needs within the communities in which we live, work and play. We work collaboratively and strive to create beauty out of the challenges each project faces by carefully considering the aesthetics and cultural significance of the surroundings. By listening carefully to key stakeholders - our clients, communities, consultants, and others - we are able to synthesize win-win solutions that achieve our clients’ paramount goals efficiently through public approval processes. We can help find solutions to the issues and challenges confronting neighborhood development today.

Our Experience

At ODE, we work closely and collaboratively with our clients to help them meet their objectives in a transparent and communicative process. We work from concept design through full implementation of residential, multi-family, and mixed-use buildings, at all scales, across the built spectrum. Through experience, leadership and a positive collaboration we are committed to fulfilling our clients’ schedule, program, and economic goals.

Our leadership team has over 45 years experience guiding the delivery of neighborhood masterplans and buildings within urbanizing neighborhoods. Prior to founding ODE, our team spent the formative years of their careers contributing to long-established firms based in the metro DC area, producing projects across the country in 15 states and multiple foreign countries. We have experience implementing over fifteen million square feet of commercial, office, retail, and mixed-use buildings, containing over 9,000 residential units.
