STRAND Information

Celebrating Our 45th Year Founded in 1979, STRAND and its team bring over four decades of collective expertise across diverse project types, delivering architectural, planning, interior design, structural engineering, MEP services, and related disciplines from our Dallas, Texas headquarters. Our client-centric approach, rooted in service, ethics, and integrity, defines our commitment to excellence. We strive to fully understand each client’s business model and project vision, allowing us to advocate for their interests as our own. When combined with functionality, inspired aesthetics, efficient structures, and sustainability, the result is successful projects where people live, work, and play. We offer integrated and collaborative design expertise tailored to client expectations, goals, and strategies. This focus delivers transformative solutions that help our clients thrive in today’s global economy. Our legacy is deeply rooted in post-tensioned concrete foundation design, pioneered by our founder, Mr. Richard Martter, who designed the first post-tensioning anchors still widely used today. Since then, STRAND has expanded to provide fully integrated services including architecture, planning, design, interior design, structural engineering, MEP, visualization, sustainability and energy compliance, surveying, materials quantification, and structural and energy inspections. This breadth of expertise, combined with an unwavering commitment to innovation and client needs, has positioned us to deliver comprehensive project solutions across industries and geographies. At STRAND, we build relationships—not just projects. This commitment has created a loyal client base that continues to trust us with multiple projects of every type, anywhere in the world.
