LONG BEACH, Calif., April 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — RDC, a national award-winning architecture, interiors, and planning firm, has joined together with Phoenix-based interior architecture and design firm Phoenix Design One (PDO). The merger was announced today by RDC\u2019s CEO Brad Williams, AIA. The firms are teaming up to expand the services offered to clients and will continue to operate as they did prior to the merger, using their respective firm names, staff members, office spaces, methods, and procedures.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly excited to welcome PDO to the team. PDO fills a strategic gap both in our workplace interiors capabilities and our expansion into the Phoenix market. We are aligned in our values, offer complementary services, and have already been successfully partnering on several projects together,\u201d Williams said. \u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to leveraging one another\u2019s strengths and anticipate a significant increase in new synergies as a result of the joining of the two firms.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe design is better with collaboration, and that our firms will be better together,\u201d said Kerri Swischuk, Principal, NCIDQ, with PDO. \u201cIt\u2019s been our longstanding strategic goal to align ourselves with an architectural partner that would enable PDO to provide planning and other architectural services that naturally complement our well-established workplace practice. Joining with RDC creates that capability and allows us to provide a complete menu of services on more complex projects for our clients.\u201d<\/p>\n

PDO and RDC are currently collaborating on a new office location for a bank branch in Southern California, an office redevelopment for the City of Beverly Hills, a 60,000-square-foot office interiors renovation for a tech company in Leesburg, Virginia and RDC\u2019s office space in Loudoun County, Virginia.<\/p>\n
