At EDA, we believe architecture is the most powerful design form in transforming people’s lives and our environment. Sixty years ago, our founders introduced architectural modernism to Salt Lake City, establishing a practice of progressive design that continues to this day. Rooted in the unique culture, climate and geography of the Salt Lake region, this ethos drives a design process uniquely suited to the the mountains, valleys and deserts of the Intermountain West. We call this Utah Modernism: a regionally relevant design philosophy that aims to do more than simply make good buildings, but to create places that engage and inspire our community.
