Donovan Architects
is a full-service architectural firm. Design initiatives are centered on pragmatic, occupant focused, artistically meaningful, contextual, and sustainable built environments.
Donovan Architects was established in 2006 as an architectural practice specializing in sustainable multi-family housing design. To date, we have completed designs for over 60 multi-family housing properties, and over 2,500 sustainable units.
