Maugel Architects changes name to Maugel DeStefano Architects
Harvard, MA Maugel Architects has changed its corporate name to Maugel DeStefano Architects.
In June of 2019, Maugel Architects acquired DeStefano Architects of Portsmouth, N.H. The acquisition accelerated the firms’ growth trajectories by immediately expanding market position and geographical reach throughout New England. DeStefano Architects was renamed DeStefano Maugel Architects.
“The business synergies realized from the acquisition three years ago have far exceeded our client acquisition and revenue growth projections,” said Brent Maugel, founder and president of Maugel DeStefano Architects. “Our new name reflects the rich legacy of both firms and our continued optimism for the future.”
“We are excited to continue this journey together under the Maugel DeStefano Architects brand,” said Lisa DeStefano, principal of Maugel DeStefano Architects. “The unified name celebrates the next step in leveraging our combined strengths.”
Daily operations will remain unchanged at the company’s Harvard and Portsmouth locations.
