A PERSONAL APPROACH TO ARCHITECTURE

Good design begins
with a closer look.

At the way you live. The way your business works. The character of a site. Through open dialogue and close collaboration, DPO Architecture brings these pieces together in distinctive homes and workplaces connected to the people and places they serve.

01 / THE PRACTICE

A direct relationship.
A considered result.

Great architecture begins with a human connection.

Working in architecture since 1993 and licensed since 2001, Douglas Oldham brings experience in mountain homes and a broad range of commercial buildings. You work directly with the architect who develops and carries your design vision forward.

Honest dialogue, thoughtful design, and advocacy throughout the process are central to the practice. The aim is to make a complex undertaking more understandable, collaborative, and rewarding.

DESIGNED AROUND THE WAY YOU LIVE

At home,
inside and out.

A home should reflect the people who live in it and belong to its setting. Mountain-home experience, a connection to nature, and an interest in energy-efficient building technologies inform a thoughtful approach to custom residential design.

COMMERCIAL & HOSPITALITY

Spaces that work.
Places that welcome.

From the first impression at the entrance to the details of everyday use, architecture shapes how people experience a business. Thoughtful planning brings function, comfort, and identity together in restaurants, workplaces, and healthcare environments.

INTERIOR DESIGN & TENANT IMPROVEMENTS

A welcome that
works every day.

A reception area sets the tone for a visit. Thoughtful layouts, comfortable waiting spaces, and considered materials help a business welcome people while supporting the work happening behind the scenes.

DPO Architecture provides interior design for office tenant improvements, restaurants, and dental offices, bringing space planning, materials, finishes, and the overall interior experience together. You work directly with Douglas on both the architecture and the interior design.
