Studio+, an architecture and design firm based in Fort Myers, FL., says it has acquired TDM Architects, Inc. an architectural and planning company founded in Los Angeles in 1994.
The recently rebranded organization says in a March 24 statement that it has 30 years of expertise in education, including K-12 schools, higher education, religious, athletic, school modernization, child development centers, multifamily, senior housing modernization and aerospace.
In the past decade, Studio+ has grown from eight employees in an 800-sq. ft. building to more than 50 employees with four office locations, the statement says. The TDM team will maintain its L.A. office with the company’s principals and staff continuing to serve clients as Studio+.
“From the TDM team perspective, we now have more depth and horsepower to pursue projects,” said TDM principal John Tegtmeyer. “The combined resources, the strength of the Studio+ organization, and access to new assets and capabilities will be invaluable to serving our clients for many years to come.”
“In terms of completing our first acquisition, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience,” said Mike Lendino, chief financial officer, Studio+. “Both companies have a strong track record of building repeat business and a similar service approach of designing to meet the clients’ needs. The addition of TDM to Studio+ sets us up for continued growth in California as we seek to hire client leaders with architectural experience to join us in creating impactful projects and elevate our mission to create design solutions that transform live.”
