North Carolina’s largest city is witnessing the strongest urban growth of any city in the South, according to a May 25, 2017 article in the Charlotte Business Journal. Much of that growth began in the 1970s, when two international banks made the Queen City their home. Since then, Charlotte’s population has exploded and its urban center has transformed into a financial stronghold. Charlotte is now the second largest banking center in the country. Its economic development is reflected in the city’s imposing skyline, and many of the architectural firms listed below have contributed to this growth. Some of the firms have main offices out of town — or state. But they all share one thing in common: a mission to design commercial structures that reflect sustainable living and civic responsibility.

It’s a tall order these architects fill — converting turn-of-the-century churches into hip hangouts or blending a client’s national image with tastes local enough to lure Charlotte’s brand of foodies. The challenge has only intensified as the Queen City’s population swells with diversity; international tastes are making restaurants rethink their approach, transforming their menu from the traditional, down-home Southern fare of steaks, fried chicken, and barbecue that once dominated the food scene in Charlotte. Alongside changing menus, diners also also expect a restaurant’s atmosphere to enhance the dining experience. No group better understands this than the entrepreneurs – whether Mom-n-Pop or the power brokers of America’s multi-billion dollar fast-casual food industry – who’ve relied on the architects discussed below to make it all happen. But each understands that while food and drink are a restaurant’s main attraction, its décor can never be an afterthought.
