About us
In 1981, the world didn’t know it needed another architecture firm, but our founder did. Our firm grew and prospered, and after thirty years can be counted as one of the reasons the entire region looks like it looks and is what it is. We are proud of the notion that we have left things better than we found them. We are now well into our “next generation” and, as you have probably noticed, we have changed our name from MBAJ to Boomerang. Not just because “M” and “B” have retired and not just because there is only a one in twenty-four chance of getting the acronym right, but because, of what boomerangs symbolize to us… read on. We provide facility planning and architectural design services to clients who desire exceptional results. Our clients require innovative planning, quality design, close communication, and fiscal responsibility. The client relationships we cultivate depend on professional integrity, honesty in all business functions, and a record of proven design and technical competence. A testimony of our proven performance and value stands with their existing clients who have awarded eighty-five percent of our new commissions during the past twelve months.

🎉 Celebrating Milestones: Tulls Creek Beam Topping Ceremony! 🎉 Last Thursday, we reached a key milestone for the new Tulls Creek elementary school with a beam topping ceremony! Watching the final beam go up was a great moment for everyone involved. This future Currituck County school is coming together thanks to the teamwork of our design crew at Boomerang and Sussex Development Corporation. We’re excited to see this project take shape and look forward to the next steps as Tulls Creek moves closer to welcoming students and staff. Stay tuned—more updates to come!

Looking forward to seeing our partner, Swinerton, championing more mass timber, sustainable projects in the Carolinas.
Swinerton has always been a huge proponent of mass timber- from its sustainable design to its beautiful aesthetic. We believe in its benefits so much that we wanted our own employees to experience them firsthand. We have also welcomed our partners, clients, and communities into our Charlotte and Atlanta office spaces to personally explore our capabilities to incorporate mass timber into a space or design. We are excited about mass timber trends on the East Coast and look forward to sharing more soon. #swinerton1888 #swinertonbuildscharlotte #swinertonbuildsatlanta #masstimber
