We are coming up on a new year, and DC has a lot to be thankful for. Over the last year, we put our heads down together and worked hard to give our clients a better year than the one before. We’ve grown as a team, both figuratively and literally, and together we’ve gotten to work on some pretty amazing projects.

One exciting thing about the new year approaching is that we get to take some time to recognize the hard work and achievements that the DC team has accomplished, as well as celebrate anniversaries and well-earned new promotions. Join us as we recognize our hard working staff and reflect on 2021.

Value Awards

Design Collaborative is all about people – creating People-first places, reaching out to people in our community(s), and supporting our very own DC team. We have several values that represent the core of DC, and each year we award a few individuals on the DC team who really stand out representing these values (a tricky task with so many passionate and engaging team members to choose from!). This year, our value awards go to:

  • People First: Laurie McCartin
  • Love What You Do: Steve Staley
  • Don’t Be a Passenger: Ryan Birkey
  • Give Back: Jared Monce
  • Have Fun: Jimmy Burkhart

As architects, engineers, interior designers, and more, we have one of the coolest jobs in the world. We get to work with people from all walks of life and learn about their passions, dreams, and ideas. Then we get to bring those visions to life. We are proud of our team and all they’ve accomplished, designing People-first places and improving worlds.
