ABOUT LS3P
Established in 1963, LS3P is a multidisciplinary firm offering architecture, interiors, and planning services to a wide variety of clients nationwide. Central to all regions of the Southeast with twelve offices throughout the Carolinas, Georgia, and Northern Florida, LS3P is committed to bringing state-of-the-art design, technology, and expertise of a strong regional firm closer to our clients on a local level. With a staff of over 500 employees, we have the resources to offer total design capabilities from site selection to occupancy, yet we are small enough to give personal attention to each client.
We are well-versed in the challenges which are particular to campus design including working with academic calendars, navigating funding mechanisms, and designing for both immediate needs and longterm flexibility.
The editor of DesignIntelligence has called LS3P “the most local of the global firms and the most ‘worldclass’ of the locals.” LS3P brings a history of over 63 years of design excellence, with more than 680 design awards across diverse practice areas. With a mission to “engage, design, and transform,” we are deeply committed to the communities we serve. We believe in collaboration, innovation, and building lasting relationships with our clients.
With an extensive portfolio of Higher Education projects, LS3P provides campus design solutions which meet today’s needs with flexibility for the future.
