The best creative solutions are practical.
This second value of ours reflects the basics of our philosophy, which is integrating the aspects of both a design and engineering mentality. We aim to walk the fine line of embracing creativity and practicality as a firm and find this approach to be most rewarding for our clients. This core value ensures that those we partner with not only get fresh and innovative designs, but also solutions that serve their intended purposes pragmatically.
Our Interiors Team took a trip down the road to one of our projects that recently opened – The Fainting Goat Coffee Co. in Franklin, TN! Incredible coffee, a great second story with a rooftop lounge, remote working booths available, and parking in the back. Needless to say, this location will be a frequent visit for our office!

Our team worked closely with the client to design the full site and building for Jim ‘N Nick’s BBQ. This project involved a high level of coordination through all phases, especially permitting and site design phases in the Denver market. It was fulfilling to see the final project come to life with the authentic wood and brick exterior finishes beside the iconic backdrop of the Rocky Mountains.
What an awesome time at our company Christmas party a few weeks back! It was special for us to be able to celebrate a great year at one of our restaurants, the River House in Nashville! Thank you to all of our partners for making it a special year and cheers to another great one in 2024! 🥂
Here’s a look into an integral part of our Due Diligence stage: performing as-built surveys of our projects. For existing buildings, this step is key to identifying the existing conditions, dimensions, and potential issues with a space. Our team creates a report and as-built drawing that will be used for the design and to aid the client in understanding the required updates for the project. In addition, our team meets the client and property manager in person to start the coordination process and identify solutions as early as possible. We are thankful for the expertise and diligent preparation of our team, as it paves the way for our design process to be as streamlined and successful as possible.
We are so excited to be a part of this project! The Fainting Goat Coffee is opening a new Franklin, TN location in a renovated building soon. Looking forward to sharing more images as it gets wrapped up.

DandE welcomes Josiah Schelling! Josiah is a 5th year student at The University of Tennessee College of Architecture and Design and will be interning with us this summer. Josiah showcased some great 3D modeling skills in his portfolio and are excited to have him on the team!
The latest Holler and Dash has now opened in the Melrose neighborhood in Nashville, TN! D and E is proud to have partnered with H&D on the preliminary design, construction documents, permitting, landlord coordination, and construction administration. The challenge for this project was to establish a unique design that paid homage to the eclectic nature of the Melrose neighborhood but also blended with the modern exterior of the shell building.
To capture the design intent and message, D and E created 3D models and renderings of the exterior and interior design and worked closely with H&D to fine tune each element prior to construction. In the end, the design expectations were achieved as shown in the comparison image below:
D and E also worked closely with local artisans and craftsmen, such as 5 strings furniture (www.fivestringfurniture.com), Oil and Lumber (www.oilandlumber.com), and Sideshow signs (www.sideshowsignco.com), to provide a cohesive space highlighted with high quality elements. We are excited to see this location completed and hope you will enjoy the space too!
