General Info

The architectural design firm of Dean Robert Camlin & Associates, Inc. was founded in 1977 by Melvin Arbaugh with the intent of providing a full range of architectural services for educational, commercial, governmental, industrial, religious, and residential buildings--for new construction, restorations, and renovations. In the years since then we have not specialized in any single type of building project. Instead we prefer to remain as architectural generalists, offering personalized service and quick response for both local clients and those outside of Carroll County. Mr. Camlin joined the firm in 1982 as an intern project manager. Under Mr. Arbaugh's direction his responsibilities gradually increased to encompass every aspect of building design and construction review. In 1986 Mr. Camlin qualified for and passed the Architect Registration Exam. He purchased the firm in 1991 from Mr. Arbaugh. In addition to holding his architectural license in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Virginia, Mr. Camlin is a member of the Baltimore chapter of the American Institute of Architects. In 2008 he also became a LEED ( Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ) Accredited Professional. Both of these have additional continuing educational requirements beyond the minimum required to maintain the state licenses. Mr. Camlin is also Green Advantage Residential certified. Mr. Camlin is an adjunct instructor at Carroll Community College, teaching courses in architectural design and building information modeling.
