Our mission driven practice focuses on Community Revitalization and Sustainable Design including Planning, Civic, Education, Wellness, Religious and Affordable Housing projects. We have a 20-year legacy of downtown and neighborhood revitalization, multi-family housing, schools, churches, public buildings, university facilities, medical buildings, and businesses that have contributed greatly to the economic growth and prosperity of their communities. We are particularly passionate about downtown redevelopment and neighborhood revitalization. We strongly believe that the quality of life within a City is enriched by each well designed building and exceptional public space. Creating buildings which consume less energy and have healthier interior environments is central to our firm’s mission. At STA we strive for creative partnerships, involving our clients in every step of the design and construction process. The professional and cultural diversity of Team STA contributes significantly to our understanding of each client’s unique objectives and priorities. Fundamental to client engagement is a commitment to performance, informed and driven by well researched expertise and creative imagination. Through this collaborative approach we shape every project we undertake around its context, purpose and aspirational goals. All our projects look different because our clients are different, as are their individual objectives. However, common themes in our practice are Creating Community Spaces, Placemaking, Conserving the Environment, Enhancing the Quality of Life, Building More with Less, and Investing in and Inventing the Future.

Museums are more than where history is preserved, they are launchpads for the future. We're proud to have sponsored the 2024 Association of African American Museums in Baltimore, MD. It was an honor to be among nearly 1,000 cultural leaders such as Dr.Carla Hayden, the first woman or African American to lead the Library of Congress. We look forward to collaborating soon with our new friends and colleagues! #AAAM #CulturalResources #MuseumDesign

Thank you Alexis Rodgers! It was a joy to have you on our team for the summer!
This summer, I had the pleasure of interning at Self + Tucker Architects. It was an amazing opportunity that granted me the chance to learn and enhance my skills architecturally. The internship allowed me to improve on my communication, collaboration, and time management skills within an office environment. With, Sonia Raheel as my mentor, I was able to work on multiple projects, attend meetings and site visits, as well as contribute to the team. I am very thankful to the principals, co-workers, and other interns that I was able to connect with and learn from in abundance.
