FGM Architects announced that LeMay Erickson Wilcox Architects, a 19-person architectural studio based in Reston, Va., is joining their firm.
John Dzarnowski, CEO of FGMA, said, “With the addition of LEWA, FGMA furthers our strategic goal of growth through diversification, both in terms of practice expertise and geographic reach. FGMA now has a distinct presence in the Mid-Atlantic region in addition to our already strong footprint in the Midwest and Texas. We anticipate being able to demonstrate a wider array of quality design solutions to our clients in all these regions, helping to build better communities in the process.”
Paul Erickson, a founding partner of LEWA, said, “Both LEWA and FGMA are award-winning firms that share core cultural values in our commitment to quality, services and enhancing communities. Each firm is well known for working collaboratively with community partners, fostering enduring client relationships and designing buildings that have a positive impact on the people who use them. LEWA’s strengths will be bolstered by FGMA’s robust operational infrastructure, new practice areas as well as regional markets. Collectively, we have expanded our skills, manpower and resources to serve both national and international clients.”
