Our Mission

Our staff is dedicated to providing our clients with exceptional quality and value through our architectural solutions and designs.

We have developed long term relationships with some of the most recognized and prominent Developers and Clients in the nation. CDA Architects is headquartered in Houston, Texas and has a staff of approximately sixteen professionals. We pride ourselves on a personal approach to serving our clients, making their goals our own and striving to achieve them.  We become a key part of an overall team and strive to provide service and value throughout the entire project and beyond.

As a Firm that has existed through more than 4 decades, CDA Architect's design style has evolved and changed through the years.  Our style can be as varied as our Clients, as varied as the locations we work in, and certainly as varied as the industries we design buildings for.  Without a defined Style, we pride ourselves in listening to the Client's needs and goals, and then being able to reach a design that satisfies them all.  We don't design for Awards and Recognition in magazines, we design for our clients and the users of the built environments we create. Having happy clients that return to us again and again is our reward for a job well done. Visiting our projects, users should feel comfortable and clients should feel proud seeing their vision brought to life in a structure or space.

CDA has been a trusted partner with us through multiple projects over the years. They are vital to our success in a number of ways including their deep understanding of what drives retailer’s needs in an evolving marketplace, the ability to deliver a comprehensive sets of design plans, deep regulatory understanding in numerous municipalities and most importantly their ability to help us solve complex problems that are inevitable in every real estate development.
