For over seventy years, TDA has served as an award-winning architectural design firm for educational, athletic, and civic clients in Northeast Ohio. As an innovative leader in design with over $2 billion in construction projects over the past ten years, we embrace a “people-centric” culture and are proud to be a 100% employee-owned company.

TDA Work

We work on a variety of educational, athletic, and civic projects, from schools to pools, and from courts to sports. Whether it is designing a 350,000 square foot campus, a 3,000-seat stadium, or a welding classroom renovation, we are driven by curiosity and strive to serve our clients by bringing their vision to reality. Including aquatic centers, autism schools, and community resource centers, our breadth of work speaks for itself.

Want to learn more about the stories we tell?

Our projects are not about buildings, but about the people who will experience them. Every school district and local government we partner with has a story worth telling. Building a high school stadium is cool, but how it enables a robust athletics program to increase student success is the real core of that project.

TDA Insights provides just that: a look at the hidden stories about the people using the spaces we design.

About Us
& Our Culture

We believe in putting people first. Relationships are the foundation of what we do. The natural transition to a 100% employee-owned firm is a monumental step in the evolution of TDA’s culture and legacy. Each staff member is personally invested in the success of your project.

We believe design enriches lives. Design is intentional thinking. It transcends architecture and touches everything we do. We recognize our responsibility as designers to enhance the environment for everyone. But we also like to have fun along the way.
