Founded in 2002 by architects
Dana M. Smith and James M. Wachtel, DJ Design, Inc. is a full-service
architectural planning and design firm specializing in moderate to large public
projects, educational, religious, and historical preservation architecture and athletic/recreation facilities. Located on the northeast coast of Florida, we can service clients throughout
the southeast.
With the combined experience of
over 50 years, we have a thorough understanding of the supporting roles played
by the clients, users and designers in the creation of architectural spaces.
We have worked on several hundred projects throughout the U.S., including
airports, museums, offices, sports stadiums and high-end residences. Working
with the various "stakeholders", we combine this varied expertise
with a mission-driven design sensibility to produce unique buildings that
succeed: programmatically, financially, and aesthetically. We do not restrict
our thinking to a particular style, rather we design to fit the unique use,
community, site and funding of a particular object.
