Our Legacy | Dick Clark
Often referred to in Austin as the "Godfather" of contemporary architecture, Dick was a driving force in creating the vibrant architecture community in Austin.
Prior to his passing in 2017, Dick contributed to many of the landmark projects in Austin that helped transform their respective neighborhoods. From the iconic South Congress Avenue to the Texas Hill Country, Dick Clark established a lasting legacy which still remains a leader in innovative commercial and residential projects.
After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin School of Architecture in 1969 (and later Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design in 1972) Dick Clark began his career in his hometown of Dallas, TX, before a brief stint in Colorado, and eventually returning to his alma mater city of Austin, TX, to open his namesake firm Dick Clark Architecture (which was renamed Dick Clark + Associates in 2013), now in its 42nd year. For him, the goal was always the same: create places that bring people together, that support our communities and our families, that prove that good design is good for everyone
