At NIMMO, we are driven to design for the human experience, collaborating with clients and crafts people in an iterative discovery process that is deeply rooted in context, sensitive to the environment, and anchored by authenticity. We form poetic spaces that invite exploration, inspire reflection, and nurture belonging. We create an architecture meant to endure.

NIMMO's founder, Joshua Nimmo, has been driven to create for as long as he can remember.  He leads NIMMO in its journey to design an enduring architecture that invites moments of profound human experience, in contexts ordinary and extraordinary.

Joshua established NIMMO in 2009.  His goal then and now is to nurture a firm where he authentically can live his values as an architect, with clients and a team who are interested in discovering deeper layers of meaning and problem solving in progressive architecture.  Joshua’s approach to design reflects a sincere appreciation for raw, basic materials and a continuous search for architectural honesty.  Joshua has led NIMMO to eight design awards from the Dallas Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, and he has served as a featured panelist, lecturer, and jurist for architecture and design institutions within Dallas and beyond.

Prior to launching NIMMO, Joshua worked directly under renowned architect Lionel Morrison, FAIA.  He was the senior project architect leading teams for numerous morrisonseifertmurphy projects of significance, including the W Dallas Residences, One Arts Plaza Residences, Northaven Residence, and LEED Gold Certified International Business Park Phase 15.  Joshua is a LEED accredited professional, and NIMMO is dedicated to infusing numerous passive strategies into its projects, including a variety of energy-, water-, and resource-conservation technologies.

Joshua grew up in Oklahoma City and began practicing architecture professionally in 1997, upon his graduation from Oklahoma State University.  He and his family love to travel, fish, and explore.
