As a staff member at VMDO Architects, you will be surrounded by supportive colleagues who nurture inventive ideas and active minds. With a staff of 40 and a 30-year firm history, we have a depth of creative inventory that we tap into to help our fellow architects grow professionally in a fun, collaborative atmosphere.

VMDO routinely hires some of the brightest young architects in the field, all of whom gain a well-rounded work experience. VMDO prides itself in challenging young employees to over-achieve. Our employees excel in this environment; they develop the capacity to anticipate the consequences of their moves within the context of a multi-faceted design team. They often mature from solo designer to a member of a diverse team of architectural interns and consulting engineers. They gain a full understanding of the often-conflicting forces of program, budget, function, aesthetics, and “constructability” in an engaging and supportive environment. Additionally, we offer our architectural staff opportunities to learn and grow with formal programs such as Design Fridays and Intern Development as well as personal mentoring.

VMDO is organized around an architecture studio and landscape architecture studio.



Living/Working in Charlottesville

Historic Charlottesville, Virginia, located on the scenic Piedmont near the Blue Ridge Mountains, is home to The University of Virginia and Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe. Only two and a half hours from metropolitan Washington, D.C., Charlottesville features many of the amenities of the big city but maintains a distinctly small-town, laidback, sophisticated flair. History, culture, sports, and entertainment are within short reach of our offices on the downtown mall, a popular pedestrian promenade featuring a diverse array of restaurants and shops around every corner.

We appreciate your interest in VMDO Architects, one of Virginia's leading architecture firms.

“As practitioner and as client, I have enjoyed working with greatly talented architectural firms. VMDO was one of the best firms in Virginia within a few months of its organization. Through the years, the firm has never lost sight of the importance of attracting, training, and retaining the brightest and best. [VMDO is] stronger than it's ever been, from top to bottom, and it is now, in my opinion, one of the very best firms in the country.”

Samuel A. Anderson III, FAIA
Former Architect for the University of Virginia
