Excellence Beyond Expectations

For more than 100 years, LEO A DALY’s dedication to design excellence has produced exceptional spaces that enhance and enrich the human experience.

Inspired Design

Since 1915, we have worked with an unyielding focus on design excellence as a means to shape a better world. Outstanding design does more than solve practical challenges; it should provoke, inspire and change how we interact with the world. Our team-focused approach is based on a commitment to asking and answering difficult questions. It is a humanistic practice powered by creativity, inquiry and innovation.

Holistic Approach

One of our founding principles, going back 100 years, is holistic design. Our founder, Leo A. Daly, Sr., pioneered the use of interdisciplinary project teams using what he termed a “whole project approach,” and combining planning, architecture, engineering and interiors. Today, we embrace a design philosophy that seeks to harmonize the ecological, economical, personal and interpersonal impacts of the built environment, creating spaces that serve the individual and the collective.

Global Leadership

As one of the largest planning, architecture, engineering, interior design and program management firms in the world, each day LEO A DALY participates in a conversation that shapes the future of our world.
