About Us

Post Loyal Architecture & Industrial Design is an Atlanta-based practice founded in 2019 by Allen Post and Chris Loyal. The studio works across commercial, cultural, and mixed-use projects, partnering with developers and institutional clients.

The work is rooted in the adaptive reuse and transformation of existing buildings—approaching each project through its history, context, and constraints to create thoughtful, enduring design solutions.

Our Approach

Context

Storehouse 9 existing brick building exterior prior to adaptive reuse in Atlanta

Each project begins with a close reading of its existing conditions—understanding the physical, historical, and cultural context that shapes how a space can evolve over time.

Process

Our work develops through a disciplined, iterative process that prioritizes clarity in decision-making. Design moves are deliberate, balancing spatial experience with constructibility and long-term performance.

Execution

We remain actively involved throughout construction, ensuring that the integrity of the design is maintained as ideas translate into built form.

Chris Loyal

  • Post Loyal is led by Allen Post and Chris Loyal, whose combined experience includes work on large-scale, award-winning projects across the Southeast.

  • We lead each project directly, working closely with clients, consultants, and builders from concept through completion.
