Celebrating Diversity in Design: RDLR Architects' Hispanic Heritage Month Reflection

Founded in 1982 by Rey de la Reza, FAIA, RDLR Architects (RDLR) embarked on a remarkable journey, driven by a vision to create exceptional, community-centered architectural design.

At its inception, the landscape for Hispanic-owned architectural firms was limited, but RDLR Architects stood as a beacon of innovation and inclusivity. Located in the vibrant heart of Houston's East End, our firm proudly embraces Hispanic leadership, which continues to shape our identity today.

For us, diversity and inclusion are not just words; they are the very essence of our creative spirit. We firmly believe that diversity fuels innovation, and we celebrate the myriad of approaches and perspectives that our team brings to the table.

As a Hispanic-owned firm, our multicultural experiences enrich our design process. We draw inspiration from languages, values, art, and designs of various cultures, which is a tremendous asset to our profession. We hold a deep appreciation for cultural differences and understand the significance of spaces that foster social connections. Our designs are a true reflection of the communities they serve.

Today, RDLR Architects proudly stands in its third generation of Hispanic ownership, and our commitment to serving community-focused clients continues to grow. Join us in celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month and the vibrant tapestry of cultures that inspire us every day. Together, we shape a more inclusive and creative world.
