Dowling Architects

Dowling Architects Architecture, planning, design, interiors, residential, commercial, educational Teaming and Collaboration are core values that define Dowling Architects.

Embracing client involvement, respecting the input of every team member and collaborating at all levels of design and project delivery are traits the firm has grown to represent. Change is inevitable. Growth is not measured in numbers but instead by how a firm chooses to define itself as a result of its work and the challenges we face. In 1995, Firm Principal Michael Dowling set out to establish a

body of work within the State of Montana that would be admired and respected for its contribution to society, the public and the profession of architecture. Each and every project the firm undertakes builds on this foundation and strives to achieve greater levels of success for our clients and the specific goals they have in their endeavors. From Master Planning to the smallest addition, our clients are our most important team members. Dowling Architects is committed to excellent design, quality work, and repeat clients. Our design philosophy is grounded in the idea of collaboration and integration. We engage all participants in learning about a place through its history, its people and its connections to envision a place that defines its own character. Our ability to solve problems, coordinate and organize the project team, and provide appropriate design has been the cornerstone of delivering successful projects. Of primary value to Dowling Architects is making good choices for the impacts we create on the environment. We take our responsibility in helping to establish that history very seriously. New buildings are literally set in stone. We have but one chance to achieve the full potential of any project in terms of design, function, infrastructure and presence. As a community grows, it becomes ever more important that collective ideas mold the future of the built and un-built areas. Toward this end, integrated design that meets the client and community needs is of highest priority.

Located on Helena's east side, Mountain View Eye Care's new building is raising the bar with an elegant, simple design. The single story 13,000 s.f. building will be wrapped in porcelain sandstone panels with aged copper accents. Multiple layers of design elements abstractly represent an eyeball that will follow passers by as they travel Colonial Drive or Interstate 15. Construction should start mid summer 2026.
