The latest AIA/Deltek Architecture Billings Index (ABI) shows signs of hope for architecture firms, with October's score of 50.3, marking the first stabilization after 20 months of economic challenges. 📈 This improvement from September’s 45.7 score reflects a balance between firms reporting growth and decline in billings. While project inquiries are steadily increasing, client caution and a decline in new design contracts highlight the importance of navigating the current market with resilience and adaptability. At Russell and Dawson, we remain committed to innovation and excellence as we partner with clients during these dynamic times. Together, we’ll continue to build the future! 🚀 #russellanddawson #architecturetrends #economicresilience #buildingthefuture #AIAABI #architectureinnovation #designexcellence #constructionindustry

Exciting times ahead for both hospitality and non-residential markets!     #hospitalityconstruction #constructiontrends #russellanddawson #hoteldesign #constructionpipeline #architectureanddesign #buildingthefuture #nonresidentialprojects #hospitalityindustry #constructioninnovation

At Russell & Dawson, we believe that architecture is more than just buildings; it's a canvas where design, functionality, and creativity converge. Each project we take on is a seamless fusion of art and engineering, carefully crafted to inspire, elevate, and leave a lasting impression. Take for example our recent project at [Connecticut State Capitol], 210 Capitol Ave. Hartford, CT 06106 where we involved every sort of restoration and renovation work. Restoration work included historic research and site investigation, ornamental paint, flat and ornamental plaster, architectural woodwork, furniture, stained and painted glass, stone cleaning and carving, monumental wood windows, pottery, metalwork both cast bronze and wrought iron, axminster carpet, ornamental lighting, and sculpture in several media. We are proud to continue pushing the boundaries where architecture meets art, delivering not just structures, but experiences. #architecturemeetsart #designexcellence #innovationindesign #russellanddawson #architecturalart #creativespaces #sustainabledesign #buildingthefuture #artinarchitecture #innovativedesign #designinspiration

The construction industry is adapting the future with the rapid adoption of drones, or unmanned aerial systems (UAS). As drone technology becomes more affordable, its usage on construction sites has soared by 239% in the last year alone! Why are drones a game-changer? ✨ Boost efficiency and enhance job site safety. ✨ Aid visualization and provide aerial heat maps. ✨ Deliver real-time data for informed decisions. ✨ Minimize theft risks by doubling as security tools. At Russell and Dawson, we’re excited to see how drones continue to shape the way we build smarter, safer, and more innovative structures. Let’s build the future together! #constructioninnovation #dronesinconstruction #russellanddawson #constructiontechnology #safetyfirst #aerialdata #techinconstruction
