The Resort at Rockwater is under construction! Slated for completion in 2025, the multi-family apartment complex will contain 365 luxury units right on the bank of the beautiful Arkansas River. The complex will feature full landscaping and high-end luxury finishes throughout all units. The future resort is the result of the collaboration of many, including the Rockwater developers Lisa Ferrell and Jim Jackson, as well as Terra Forma and Moses Tucker. The combined expertise of all parties has made this project possible and WDD is thankful for the opportunity to bring this high-end living experience to North Little Rock. #wddarchitects #residentialdesign #architecture #interiordesign #centralarkansas #northlittlerock #resortatrockwater

WDD would like to congratulate the new Southwest Junior High School for their grand opening in Fall of 2024. Following a multiyear design and construction effort, the project included the demolition and replacement of 83,000 SF of 1960s era construction, as well as 150,000 SF of new space. The heart of the school is a 7000 SF atrium which serves as the media center, flanked by classrooms and labs for art, culinary, agribusiness, EAST, and robotics programs. Swipe for a peek at this innovative new school in Northwest Arkansas. #wddarchitects #springdaleschools #architecture #southwestjuniorhighschool #interiordesign #northwestarkansas #educationdesign

The new 34,000 square foot Texarkana Regional Airport Terminal is a gateway for the Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas Region. As the first thing travelers experience when arriving to the twin cities, the terminal is designed to reflect the area’s culture and wood industry. The new terminal on the west side of the runway replaces the old east side facility. The new location provides a more direct connection to the regional traffic infrastructure and interstate system. #wddarchitects #architecture #texarkanaregionalairport #texarkana #airportdesign #interiordesign

WDD recently took a trip to the site of the reimagined Winthrop Rockefeller Early Childhood Center. The building has been gutted and reorganized completely to accommodate the needs of infants and pre-K children. Originally built as an elementary school in the late 1970’s, this major renovation brings a fresh and organic feel to the existing spaces with upgraded finishes along with the use of color, natural light, and rounded forms. Swipe to see photos of some of the exciting progress being made at the site! #wdd #architecture #interiordesign #littlerockschooldistrict #earlychildhoodeducation #arkansasdesign
