Unless you are a serious building aficionado, there’s a good chance you haven’t heard of the US architecture firm Page. Established as a partnership in Austin in 1898, it’s one of the oldest design practices in the country — and with more than 1,400 employees and 19 offices (plus outposts in Mexico City and Dubai), one of the bigger ones, too. But the company prides itself on having no distinct architectural style, instead designing every project to fit, for almost any market or need.

Davis Brody Bond is neither so old nor so big, but its footprint is also considerable. The New York firm designed the National September 11 Memorial & Museum at the World Trade Center and co-designed the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, DC, among dozens of museums and performing arts centers. Despite earning a slew of awards for such prestigious projects — Davis Brody Bond received the American Institute of Architects’ highest honor in 1975 — the firm nevertheless has an underdog identity and a fairly low profile.
