Lakeland, Florida Architect for Industrial, Warehouse, Cold Storage and Commercial Buildings

Marlon Lynn Architect, PA is an architecture firm in downtown Lakeland, Florida, at 212 E. Pine Street, led by Marlon D. Lynn (Florida license AR 91842). We design warehouses and distribution buildings, cold storage and refrigerated facilities, industrial additions, and commercial buildings such as retail, restaurants and churches, across Polk County, Central Florida and the Southeast. Call 863-802-5966.

We help Florida owners, developers and builders get architecture that is buildable, cost-disciplined and permit-ready, with a partner who stays engaged through construction. Marlon grew up in Haines City and earned his undergraduate and graduate degrees at the University of Florida. Florida cities on our industrial project list include Lakeland, Mulberry, Plant City, Auburndale, Winter Haven, Lake Wales, Fort Meade, Davenport, Tampa and Orlando; outside Florida, Atlanta and Waycross, Georgia, and Mebane and Morganton, North Carolina.

The project pricing tool at the top of this page walks residential and commercial projects through the scope, gives design-fee pricing, and sends your answers to Marlon so he can follow up. Construction-cost estimates in the tool are still pending.

Commercial First Look: an architect walks the building

Looking at a commercial building to buy, lease or rework? Marlon joins the broker and the client for a scheduled walk of about 60 minutes (90 minutes maximum), at no charge, and gives a verbal read before leaving. Nothing written leaves the site unless a written Property Condition Assessment (PCA) is ordered; the PCA is delivered five business days after payment.

  • Service area: Polk County, plus eastern Hillsborough, south Lake and west Osceola when already traveling.
  • The PCA is a visual assessment, not a lender-format ASTM E2018 report, not an engineering report, and not sealed.
