We have an exciting announcement to make 🥁... We are now Dekker! 🎉 Our name has changed—our 65+ years of design expertise hasn’t. “Dekker represents a theme of innovation over more than 65 years. But most of all, it represents a commitment to moving our communities forward: championed daily by Dale Dekker and embodied by every member of the team.”—Emily Allen, Chief Financial Officer The new name is an evolution of our brand: a reflection of our history, and a roadmap for what’s next. It’s not a change to our operations or team. Together, we’ll continue creating places and spaces with a problem focused, human centered approach. #ArchitectureInProgress Head on over to our website to learn more about the change: https://lnkd.in/g4hWmaAH

About us
Well-designed spaces rely on the strength of their interconnected systems. Neglecting any one of those systems can jeopardize an entire community. We know that a place’s power to help heal, educate and grow a community lies in the ability of its creators to work interdependently across disciplines and industries. We believe that relationships always eclipse projects, and together we create exceptional designs that elevate the communities we serve. Because projects are always about more than just the building.

It was great to have such fruitful conversations about adaptive reuse. Thank you NAIOP New Mexico Chapter for a fantastic luncheon!
✨ We struck gold at our July Luncheon, "From Old to Gold!" ✨ Thank you to everyone who joined us to explore the magic of adaptive reuse. Our industry experts, including Ron Patel (New Mexico United President), Brian Patterson, P.E. (Titan Development, Ltd.), Benjamin Gardner (Dekker), Matt Procter (Improve Group), Sal Perdomo (Titan Development, Ltd.), and David Shaffer (AIC General Contractor), shared incredible insights on transforming existing buildings and land into valuable community assets.

Congratulations Bridgers & Paxton on the Illumination Award for Interior Lighting Design for the Maricopa County Administration Building! This was a fun project, and we love seeing sustainable solutions get the recognition they deserve.
We’re thrilled to share that the renovation of the Maricopa County Administration Building was recognized and received the Illuminating Engineering Society #Phoenix Chapter’s Illumination Award for Interior Lighting Design! B&P was given the opportunity to provide #mechanical #electrical #plumbing & #technology design services for this 11-story, 260,515 SF facility. This award recognizes how the building’s LED lighting can provide significant energy savings for multi-level office buildings, ultimately supporting our commitment to designing our projects for sustainability. We are especially honored to receive this award, as it reflects how our designs were centered around energy and environmental design in addition to reinforcing the building’s architectural environment. The building’s lighting control system was designed to meet the latest energy efficiency requirements and enhance the well-being for occupants, meeting the project’s design & budget requirements while maintaining performance and aesthetic integrity. Thank you to our amazing B&P team for their hard work on this project. Bridgers & Paxton was also a proud sponsor of the awards ceremony and were honored to spec the evening with the other award recipients. #Arizona #engineering

Our education studio recently had the privilege of not only joining the Alamogordo Public Schools for the groundbreaking ceremony of Holloman Middle School, but also the opportunity to present the design to Col. John T. Ethridge and Col. Alfred J. Rosales - Commander & Deputy Commander of the 49th Wing at Holloman Air Force Base. Guided by the concept of “flight”, the new middle school features a shaded outdoor learning area providing students and staff with an additional educational tool to encourage outdoor learning, as well as an interior lecture stair and flexible collaboration areas that encourages and fosters 21st century learning and collaboration among them. We are beyond humbled by the community's engagement and authentic desire to improve upon the educational needs of all their students and are proud that we are able to assist the mission of the Fighting 49ers by providing a world class learning facility for the Alamogordo Public Schools. #HereForTheKids #EducationDesign

#ProjectHighlight A place centered around the charm of the arcade. Our Interior Design team had a ton of fun designing The Lit Arcade Bar in Amarillo, TX. Instead of hiding necessary infrastructure, the team made it a central design feature with bright colors contrasted against a dark ceiling. The result? Patrons feel like they are inside one of the 25 vintage arcade games the bar boasts. Check out more work from the Interior Design team: https://buff.ly/3Yr8wx0 #InteriorDesign #Amarillo #ArcadeBar

An amazing use of space that nourishes this multifamily community!
Certificate State and Local Government at John F. Kennedy School of Government Harvard University
Five stories up on our Rooftop Garden at The Imperial Building, we've cultivated a remarkable space with 5-6 micro zones. Our master gardener, James Landry from Mission ABQ, alongside our own Anna Martin, have reaped another bountiful harvest of organic vegetables. In less than an acre in the downtown core, we can offer affordable housing, implement revitalization strategies, and combat food insecurity. The results speak for themselves - the proof is in the pudding…er…vegetables! #RooftopGarden #UrbanGardening #CommunityImpact #onealbuquerque #yeshousing
