Overland Partners, a leading architecture firm based in San Antonio, has been honored by Texan by Nature for the fourth consecutive year, securing a place on the organization’s prestigious TxN 20 list for 2024. This accolade celebrates Overland Partners’ ongoing dedication to conservation and sustainability, placing them among a distinguished group of companies recognized both nationally and internationally for their environmental stewardship.
For nearly four decades, Overland Partners has operated under a core philosophy: that thoughtful physical design can inspire positive human transformation. This belief is deeply embedded in their architectural practice, driving them to create spaces that not only serve their functional purpose but also contribute to human flourishing and environmental well-being. This long-standing commitment has positioned Overland Partners as pioneers in sustainable design and staunch advocates for resilience within the built environment.
This dedication to conservation is clearly reflected in Overland Partners’ diverse portfolio of projects. Notable examples include the iconic Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin, Texas, and the serene Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota, Florida. Both of these projects stand as testaments to Overland Partners’ ability to integrate conservation principles into their designs, creating spaces that actively promote environmental awareness and preservation.
Rick Archer, Senior Principal and Co-founder of Overland Partners, emphasizes the significance of this recognition. “The work of former First Lady Laura Bush and Texan by Nature highlights the critical importance of fostering meaningful dialogue around conservation and the pressing issues that affect us all,” Archer stated. “Being recognized within this esteemed group of leaders has not only enriched our architectural practice but has also amplified our influence across Texas and beyond.”
The entire team at Overland Partners shares a deep-seated commitment to responsible stewardship. They actively incorporate practices that champion a sustainable future for both humanity and the planet.
