Formed in 1982, DBA is a progressive architecture firm based in the San Francisco Bay Area and Birmingham, Ala. Our creative team is well-versed in the personal, political, and commercial dynamics of bringing new architecture into diverse urban environments.

Our work combines social concern with a signature design character, resulting in distinctive, high-quality buildings that provide residents with a strong sense of community. In this way, our work acts as an advocate for improved urban planning, where looking good only counts if it does good, too.
