CDA Chris Dawson Architect

CDA works to make architecture easy to understand and bring to life by taking an inherently collaborative approach, sharing ideas early and often, and removing the mystery from the process. It’s a journey towards form driven by function, where client and architect are kept in sync, with the shared goal of creating memorable spaces – that’s the goal of architecture. That’s the promise of CDA.

Design Services

We are CDA, an architecture firm driven by good design. Here, we’re dedicated to creating spaces people love and buildings that last.

We began in 2009, and now have offices in Harrisburg, PA, and the Czech Republic. Over the past 14 years, we’ve been fine-tuning an approach that taps into the powerful emotional connections formed in great environments.

We promise to deliver architecture that feels effortless and processes that feel easy, with a deeply collaborative approach that aligns with your priorities and workflow from day one.

Our services include master planning, design from concept to comprehensive construction documents, and construction administration for commercial offices; education; agricultural facilities; civic and cultural centers; health and wellness; hospitality; retail, and single and multi-family residential, to name a few. Across each and every one of these categories, we apply the same attention to good design, empathy, and the earnest pursuit of finding the right solution for the project.

And as we go, we continually ask ourselves one thing: What draws us to a place? What pulls us to this building? What makes us look twice? What gives a structure an infectious sense of personality? These considerations matter—and they’re the reason we come to work every day.
