About
Young Song founded Song + Associates in West Palm Beach in 1988. Song practices as an architect and engineer, and his firm offers interior design under the same roof. The team focuses on civic and education buildings for public clients in Palm Beach County.
The firm designed West Palm Beach City Center, the downtown civic complex that holds City Hall and the Mandel Public Library. The team finished Manatee Lagoon, an eco-discovery center on the waterfront, in 2016 and gave it Florida vernacular touches such as deep verandas and a standing-seam metal roof. The Palm Beach Photographic Centre and Museum occupies space in the City Center complex.
AIA Palm Beach named Song + Associates its 2024 Firm of the Year, a year after the chapter gave Young Song its James H. Anstis Gold Medal. If you're planning a public building in the county, you can walk through City Center or visit Manatee Lagoon to judge the firm's work in person before you call.
