TBA Studio is an Architecture firm in West Monroe, Louisiana. As a former employee, I assisted in designing the floor plan and interior finishes. The office furniture was specially made by Teknion.

The interior finishes were selected to have a rustic look with accents of modern design. The green on the walls is the signature color for TBA.
