DAVIS WALKER
PRINCIPAL, DESIGNER
My interest in design has been present for as long as I can remember, from playing with Legos, building wooden sculptures with my great uncle, to sketching my first floor plan of my dream house when I was 10 years old.
I honed my design skills while earning my BA in Environmental Design from Montana State University School of Architecture, and working for a Bozeman-based architecture firm. After graduation, I wanted to further my understanding of how design becomes reality, so I pounded a hammer with a small remodeling company in Bozeman. When the owner retired I made the move back to my home town of Missoula for an apprentice carpenter job with a respected local design/build company. A wrist injury sidelined me from full-time hands-on construction but opened the door for new opportunities back on the design side.
With my life at an early crossroads, I launched Davis Walker Designs, LLC in July 2022. Since then, I have completed the design and observed the construction for a wide variety of projects, from small porch redesigns and basement remodels to full custom homes and major gut remodels. The feeling of seeing a person enjoy a space I helped shape is incredible and one that will never get old. I look forward to many more years of bringing my services and skills to the Missoula community and beyond.
In my free time, I enjoy disconnecting by getting outside, where I foster my creativity with adventure. Growing up in Montana I developed a strong love for the outdoors where I continue to mountain bike, ski, hunt and fly fish. Some of my most creative ideas have come to me while recreating outdoors. So, when I am not at my design table, you’ll find me outside.
