Principals, Duvall Decker
(Jackson, Mississippi)
Duvall Decker was founded in a place defined by both palpable need and engaging culture by partners, Anne Marie Duvall Decker, FAIA, and Roy Decker, FAIA. Duvall Decker delivers design excellence and promotes social, economic, and environmental quality, no matter the scope, type, budget, or scale of the project. The firm has been honored with many peer-reviewed design awards and has been selected for national design excellence projects such as the new Federal Courthouse in Greenville, Mississippi (a GSA Design Excellence project) and the new Springdale, Arkansas Municipal Complex (a Walton Family Foundation Design Excellence project). 

The firm’s work and approach have been highlighted in publications such as The New York Times, ARCHITECT Magazine, Architectural Record, Journal of Architectural Education, and in exhibits such as AIA’s Design for the Decades and PORCH: An Architecture of Generosity, the U.S. Pavilion exhibition at the Venice Architecture Biennale. In 2017, the Architectural League of New York selected Duvall Decker as one of its Emerging Voices. In 2023, Anne Marie Duvall Decker was a recipient of the Architectural Record’s Women in Architecture Design Leadership Award. In 2024, the firm released its debut book, Foundations, characterizing a list of propositions and foundations that were collected, developed, and tested over 25 years of practice. In 2026, Duvall Decker was profoundly honored to be named the recipient of the AIA Architecture Firm Award.
