From visiting #kirkseyprojects to design seminars and more, the Kirksey summer interns are diving into all aspects of working at an architecture firm! Their latest adventures include exploring the recently completed Kirksey-designed Trees For Houston campus and an up-close look at how our designers kick off a project through an interactive design exercise with interns in #Houston, #Austin, and #Dallas. Summer is in full swing, and this fun group is not slowing down! #summeratkirksey #kirkseyinterns #kirkseyprojects

We love our #KirkseyDallas office! Thank you, Scott + Reid General Contractors, Inc., for helping us bring it to life.
Kirksey, a renowned international architecture firm in Texas with a history spanning over five decades, opened its first Dallas office in 2022. Designed to reflect the aesthetic of their Houston and Austin offices, Scott + Reid assisted Kirksey Architecture in realizing their vision for the new space. The innovative office in the Dallas Design District includes conference rooms, a large training room, break area, and an open office layout with high end finishes. The finished project fosters creativity through an open and modern warehouse design that offers a mix of both private, communal, and multi-use spaces. photo credit: Alayna MacPherson #scottandreid #buildingbettertogether #kirksey #kirkseyarchitecture #dallas #commercialconstruction #dallasdesigndistrict #dallasdesign #officeconstruction

Last week, we got to celebrate the Topping Out of the Metrocare Mental Health and Disability Innovation Center at Hillside – a major milestone for a project that will significantly impact the way we address mental and behavioral health in the Dallas community. We appreciate The Whiting-Turner Contracting Company for hosting such a wonderful event. Congrats to the entire team!

One of Kirksey's mass timber experts, Steve Durham, recently participated in a panel at the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REAL ESTATE EDITORS conference in #Austin, where he discussed all things mass timber with several of his peers in the industry. Steve is a champion of #masstimber and has experienced the entire process from start to finish - from seeing firsthand where the timber is grown and manufactured to studying the post-occupancy data of Kirksey's mass timber projects. Read more about the panel in the Bisnow feature below! #kirkseypeople #kirkseypresents

Our Kirksey Austin office is #13 on Austin Business Journal's Austin Architecture Firm's List! One of our #Austin leaders, David Dalton, AIA, NCARB, was quoted in the article on the importance of minimizing the industry's impact on our planet, summing up one of Kirksey's foundational principles. "A third of the energy you're using as a population is in buildings," Dalton said. "When you design buildings that use less energy, and you use materials that require less energy to make them, you're creating a better environment, you're creating a more sustainable environment for everybody to live within, and you're protecting natural resources as we grow." Congratulations, #KirkseyAustin crew! #kirkseypeople https://lnkd.in/eeFzq4_k

A week ago, we joined Birch Construction at City Square's Food Pantry in Dallas. We welcomed their "neighbors", restocked shelves, cleaned floors and loaded food for others. I was part of the greeting team (we had the most air conditioning). One of the seasoned volunteers mentioned not to ask the neighbors "how are you doing" when greeting them at the doors. No one knows what someone is dealing with in their life and asking them how they are doing may unintentionally come off the wrong way. Their faces lit up when we said, "good morning", "great to see you" or "we are glad you are here." Perspective is everything. #wehelppeoplehelppeople #birchbuilds #kirkseypeople #giveback Kirksey Architecture, Nichole Bradley Culak, Michelle Guerrier, Jenna Saladino, Jack Thomas
