It’s about chemistry.

We understand that selecting an architect is really about finding that team that is the right fit. We believe every great vision must embody our client’s aspirations. The best way to do this is through collaborative dialogue. We seek diversity in our clients and projects because we believe passionately that success lies in bringing people and perspectives together. A truly successful project is not only one  that is beautifully designed and exceeds our clients expectations, it is one where a lasting relationship is fostered and forged.

We are very excited about this potential partnership and look forward to continuing the conversations with you.

Principal Master Planning

In 2011, OPN started working with Principal to redesign its corporate headquarters in downtown Des Moines. Our work began as a straight-forward study of the campus environment with the goal of modernizing existing facilities and consolidating open space. With leadership from Principal, the design team embarked on an intensive discovery process. We began by analyzing the existing campus and buildings while concurrently conducting in-depth conversations with Principal about history, culture, work practices and the company’s vision for the future. It quickly became clear that Principal had an opportunity to re-imagine its environment and work practices.

What we're saying

What our clients are saying

We enjoyed the opportunity to work with OPN Architects on the Delta Dental of Iowa Headquarters in Johnston, Iowa. OPN kept our company’s culture top-of-mind while they designed an open-office space for our employees. The new facility was designed to foster a collaborative and open work environment with a high degree of transparency, where all employees are accessible and visible. Our experience working with OPN was exciting as they kept us involved throughout the entire design process. We felt that they took the time to listen to our needs and respond to it in the design. We are very pleased with the overall results of the project and highly recommend OPN Architects. Donn Hutchins, Former President & CEO, Delta Dental of Iowa
