The Lone Star State is ever-growing and evolving. With growth comes opportunity, as many areas of our beloved state provide an open canvas for architects and designers. In the dynamic world of architectural design, Corpus Christi- and Austin-based firm LEVY DYKEMA is dedicated to innovation, vision and a shared commitment to serving clients and the built environment.

 At the helm of LEVY DYKEMA are architects and visionaries Stephen V. Levy, Bibiana B. (Biby) Dykema and John R. Dykema, Jr. This trio, with a collective history of crafting distinct architectural designs across the country, leads an award-winning team of architects, interior designers and more. The creative minds at LEVY DYKEMA reshape businesses and communities while championing an architectural approach so distinct that they have trademarked it: As Levy said, “We looked back at our design approaches and distinctive solutions and called it Texas Contemporary™ architecture.” This style, unique to LEVY DYKEMA, responds to the regional and geographical ties of Texas, symbolized by the “Six Flags over Texas.” Biby Dykema clarified that the term “contemporary” is not a style, but an acknowledgment.
