Meet the Donovans

Before our firm’s beginning, Senior Partner Wayne Donovan, now deceased, practiced architecture for more than twenty-five years while his son, Larry, has worked in the profession since 1960. Derick Donovan, the third generation of architects in the Donovan family, joined the company in 1989 and has practiced architecture alongside his father and now Senior Partner, Larry, ever since.

Both Donovans are registered architects and hold memberships with the American Institute of Architects and National Council of Registration Boards. The younger Donovan is also a registered interior designer and a member of the American Society of Interior Designers and a proponent of sustainable design, and is a LEED GA professional.
