FCA and Svigals + Partners Unite as a Purpose-Driven, Workplace Design Powerhouse

A Partnership Blending Design and Planning Expertise with Creative Vision

FCA, a renowned full-service architecture, planning and design firm, is happy to welcome Svigals + Partners into its organization. Svigals + Partners, LLP, a dynamic practice known for transformative design and art integration, is a perfect addition to the FCA culture. This forward-thinking partnership unites two visionary forces under one mission: to improve lives through design, blending subject matter expertise with a bold creative outlook.

Together, FCA and Svigals + Partners will expand their shared capabilities to deliver design solutions across healthcare, science and technology, education, corporate workplace, mixed-use, and the civic/community sectors. With the addition of Svigals + Partners’ talent and legacy, the combined firm’s footprint now spans five offices from Connecticut to Florida.

“This is a transformative moment for both firms,” says President of FCA Aran McCarthy, AIA, NCARB. “By joining forces, we’re expanding our capacity to create meaningful spaces that benefit the lives of users. At the heart of this partnership is a shared culture and passion for design that serves a greater purpose. We couldn’t be more excited about the future we’ll build together.”

Svigals + Partners’ commitment to blending architecture, art, and storytelling strongly aligns with FCA’s strategic, co-creative approach to design, making this partnership a seamless fit. Svigals will operate under the name “Svigals + Partners, an FCA company,” ensuring continuity while seamlessly integrating into FCA’s operations. Clients can expect the same collaborative, open-communication process that both firms are known for, now with even greater resources and a deeper well of talent to deliver impactful design solutions.

“Our team is excited to join the FCA family,” adds Jay Brotman, Managing Partner at Svigals + Partners. “The depth of talent we now have together across multiple sectors takes us all to a new level, ensuring every project we approach enhances the lives of those who experience it.”

This development sets the stage for the combined firms to continue leading the industry with complex program proficiency and creative passion, delivering exceptional projects across multiple sectors. From large-scale healthcare facilities to higher education, life sciences and cutting-edge corporate workplaces; FCA and Svigals + Partners will continue making their mark on architecture, design, urban planning, art integration and interior projects nationally.
