A little friendly competition never hurts!

Last week, the STOKE squad hit the lanes for the annual Northwest Arkansas AIA Bowling Tournament! We had a blast competing alongside so many friends, fellow architects, and designers from across the industry.

Thanks, AIA ARKANSAS, for another great time!

We’re excited to share that Trailside Yoga in contending for the 2026 AIA Arkansas People’s Choice Award.

This project challenged us to transform an existing building into a space that reflects wellness, community, and intentional design. From the first sketch to the finished studio, every decision was made to create a place that feels as good as it functions.

Your support not only means a lot to our team, but also helps celebrate thoughtful architecture happening across Arkansas.

Voting is open now & we’d be so grateful for your vote! Cast your vote using the link in our bio. Thank you for supporting STOKE!

Guess the Sketch!

Every project starts with a new idea and more often than not, a pen and blank piece paper quickly follows.

Today’s sketch is from Jameson Place on Rupple, drawn long before ground was ever broken. From these first lines came the vision that’s now taking shape in west Fayetteville.

Now it’s your turn… Can you guess which STOKE team member put pen to paper?

Drop your guess in the poll, and we’ll reveal the designer behind the sketch in stories!

The Township Project is making great progress.

The townhomes are officially coming alive! Concrete is poured, the trusses are up, and the vision is becoming a reality with each passing week.

Nestled beside Gulley Park, this infill project is creating dense housing that 8 lucky buyers will soon call home. We can’t wait to share more as construction continues.

Swipe to see what the finished product will look like!

Our team is growing - say hello to Skyler!

Originally from Dallas, Texas, Skyler’s passion for architecture began in a high school classroom and eventually led him to the University of Arkansas, where his perspective on design expanded through travel, restoration work, and immersive experiences across Europe and beyond.

Drawn to the intersection of creativity and technical precision, Skyler is endlessly curious about how things work and why. Whether he’s designing architecture, photographing automobiles, coding apps, or building custom projects, he approaches every challenge with intention and a desire to create meaningful solutions.

What attracted Skyler to STOKE was our collaborative culture and shared belief that great design is never a solo effort. We’re excited to have his creativity, curiosity, and unique perspective on the team.

When he’s not in the studio, you’ll likely find him mountain biking, riding motorcycles, designing custom lamps, or tinkering with his latest project.

Welcome to STOKE, Skyler!

Jameson Place is in the home stretch!

The finishing touches are underway, and this west Fayetteville development is really coming to life. From steel details and fresh paint to the final layers that make a building feel like home, every piece is falling into place.

Designed around a central tree court, these 8 two-bedroom residences feature generous balconies and porches that encourage connection to the outdoors and community. We can’t wait to see residents enjoying the spaces we’ve designed.

Swipe to see it coming alive in color! Stay tuned for the final update!

4STOKE was a moment; a moment for YOU!

We’re incredibly thankful for everyone who came out to celebrate 4STOKE. Seeing our studio filled with so many familiar faces, meaningful conversations, and people who have supported STOKE over the last four years was truly special.

This event was a reminder of how lucky we are to do what we love alongside such an amazing community. It takes so many people to do it right and we thank you for being apart of the STOKE SQUAD!

The new Benton County Headquarters for Collier & Associates has officially broken ground!

Designed as a flexible, multi-tenant office development, this two-story building creates space for real estate agents and industry partners to collaborate, innovate, and connect.

At the heart of the design is a carved-out courtyard that brings natural light deep into the building while creating a welcoming gathering space for the entire Collier community.

Breaking ground marks an exciting milestone, and we’re grateful to be part of bringing this vision to life. We can’t wait to share the progress along the way!

It all starts with a pen and paper.

When the creative spark hits, we go back to the basics - hand-drawn sketches that capture ideas quickly, freely, and without limits. These early drawings are where concepts begin to take shape, testing form, flow, and spatial relationships in their most raw and intuitive state.

In architecture, these sketches become the foundation for everything that follows - guiding design decisions, informing layouts, and eventually evolving into the spaces we bring to life. Do you recognize any of these sketches?
