Modeling how we should live and influencing the world through our practice of Architecture.
Overland’s profound sense of community is the lifeblood of our firm, carried across all our offices, no matter the distance. One of the most important measurements of the health of our community is when we see friendships transcend the work environment into personal relationships and activities outside of the office.
Our core values guide our practice and community:
Proactively facing challenges and pursuing positive outcomes through sensitivity, innovation and integrity.
Unlocking the Embedded Potential™ with creative thinking in a community that values excellence and impact.
Prioritizing relationships that last through listening and valuing different perspectives.
Demonstrating our commitment to a sustainable future through our design and practices while caring for ourselves and each other.
Supporting and encouraging one another in our journey together in an environment of respect and trust.

Overland’s core values and mission draw talented and caring people together from across the world. Here, there is a palpable sense that by working together, we can make a significant difference for our clients and the places we live and work. Our culture is always evolving, made stronger by the unique perspectives and interests that each person brings to the table.
We thrive on diversity in many forms:
- People and Cultures.
- Perspectives.
- Clients and Industries.
- Consultant Partners.
- Building Types and Locations.
