About Us
Our Services
Alter Building Design, Inc. is a full-service architecture firm focused on both exterior and interior design. We are committed to communicating and collaborating with the client--whether the project is large or small in scope, residential or commercial, new construction or the renovation of an existing building.
Our Projects
Alter Building Design projects include the design of Temple Emanu-el on the University of Alabama campus; Daystar Family Church's new building for contemporary worship; extensive renovations to the McDonald Hughes Community Center; and the modern retrofit of an old downtown drugstore into Harrison Galleries, which earned an AIA Gulf States Region Merit Award. The firm has also completed several residential projects both large and small: a garage with studio apartment, private residences, and off-campus student duplexes and townhouses.
