Based in Clarksville, Tennessee, Rufus Johnson Associates of Clarksville, Inc. (RJA) is the evolution of a firm whose history spans nearly 90 years. RJA is a full-service design firm specializing in architecture, planning, interior design, and sustainability, serving public and private clients across a wide range of project types and scales.
Since its earliest days, RJA has designed government, civic, educational, institutional, healthcare, industrial, multi-family, commercial, recreational, and public safety projects that strengthen the communities they serve, building long-standing client relationships through responsive service, practical design solutions, and careful attention to budget and schedule. In fact, 95% of our clients are repeat customers.
Our clients include state agencies, higher education institutions, school systems, local governments, and private organizations. Our work ranges from small planning and scoping studies to large, full-service design projects of significant scale and complexity. While RJA’s work is primarily based in Middle Tennessee, the firm has successfully completed projects throughout Tennessee and in Southern Kentucky.
At RJA, clients work directly with firm principals from the first conversation through project completion. That continuity gives our clients responsive communication, experienced judgment, and a team that understands their goals at every stage. We bring together the right staff and trusted consultants for each project, creating thoughtful, functional design solutions that respect the schedule and budget.
