A year ago, Destin Todd walked through our doors not knowing exactly what to expect.

In his first year at ALW, Destin has shown what it means to show up with purpose, push the design forward, and be a true collaborator. From contributing to the Florida State University School Baseball Ballpark Improvements to advancing critical infrastructure work on the R.A. Gray Waterproofing project and helping shape public space at City Hall, his work reflects both versatility and commitment.

We're grateful to have him on our team.

Happy Anniversary, Destin.🎉 Here's to everything still on the drawing board.

At the footsteps of Florida’s State Capitol, Waller Park is a powerful example of how design can reshape public space to strengthen the connection between community, culture, and civic life. Originally constructed in the 1970s, the plaza is a multi-tiered roof deck above a subterranean parking structure that had long experienced waterproofing failures, aging infrastructure, and limited accessibility between street level and the Capitol entrance above.

The redesign responds to significant changes in elevation through the addition of north and south elevator cores with elevated walkways, reconnecting the plaza’s layered levels. These vertical elements echo the modernist legacy of the Capitol Complex, originally designed by Edward D. Stone, through vertically striated terracotta baguettes and integrated lighting that establish the cores as civic beacons within the landscape.

Across the plaza, paving patterns and symmetrical planting reinforce a sense of order and procession, creating a clear threshold into the public realm while guiding movement through the space.

This ambitious project gives new life to Waller Park, serving citizens and visitors as an inviting, accessible, and welcoming civic landscape at the heart of Florida’s Capitol Complex. The project frames the Capitol and establishes a defined enclosure for gathering, movement, and pause within the public realm.

This week, as Architecture Week brings focus to the role of design, especially for K-12 students, we're highlighting Griffin Middle School—one of Tallahassee’s most historic middle schools with institutional roots spanning more than a century.

ALW partnered with Leon County Schools to develop a long-range master plan that establishes a clear path for campus growth and renewal. Phase one of this vision introduces a new cafetorium integrated into the existing campus fabric. The cafetorium is designed as a student-centered hub that supports both daily routines and larger moments of gathering. From the welcoming entry sequence and covered walkways to the light-filled interior and integrated stage, the space is designed to adapt—functioning as a dining hall, performance venue, and community space within a single, cohesive environment. The design celebrates connection and community, creating an environment that is both functional and uplifting, built to support students, faculty, and the broader school community for years to come.

Future phases will deliver a new gymnasium (currently under construction), a new classroom building, and renovations to existing facilities. Together, these improvements establish a network of dynamic, updated learning environments with strong connections across campus courtyards.

MidSouth Bank's new Tallahassee location reflects a thoughtful balance of legacy and forward-looking design. Rooted in the region’s architectural language, the building carries forward MidSouth’s established identity through an innovative use of brick patterning and glazed tile to subtly reference the rich masonry traditions found throughout the city.

A strong, welcoming presence is established at the corner with a light-filled volume that anchors the entry and creates a sense of transparency and connection. Inside, warm materials, natural light, and carefully scaled spaces support both everyday banking and meaningful client interactions. The result is a contemporary banking environment that feels both familiar and distinctly place-based. This project defines what it means to be “the friendliest and most helpful bank in town.”

Today, we’re grateful to celebrate five amazing years with Principal and Registered Interior Designer, Emily Ely. 🎉

Emily is a true example of creatives who lead with empathy — bringing clarity, integrity, and care to every project she touches. Her people-first approach shapes not only the spaces we design, but the relationships and teams she builds along the way.
Through her thoughtful leadership and creative rigor, she has strengthened client partnerships and fostered collaborative, high-performing teams across the studio.

We’re fortunate for the vision, dedication, and heart she brings to ALW each and every day.

This Presidents’ Day, we’re highlighting our renovation of Tallahassee National Bank. A new public entrance anchors the building with a clearer, more confident point of arrival, strengthening its civic presence and connection to the community. Expressive brick detailing adds texture and character, giving the façade a sense of charmful permanence that feels right at home in Tallahassee.

At ALW, we design financial institutions to feel dependable and enduring, while remaining approachable. Our experience in banking environments guides spaces that convey strength and security, yet support the everyday, face-to-face relationships that define personal service.
