Photographing Deco 969: Fort Worth’s Newest Iconic High-Rise

Architecture, commercial interiors, and drone photography for GDA Architects

Standing tall in downtown Fort Worth, Deco 969 brings Art Deco sophistication back into the skyline. As the city’s first residential high-rise in over 30 years, it’s more than a building—it’s a statement. Our team was honored to photograph every angle of this architectural gem, from its grand, linear façade to its stunning rooftop pool deck and richly designed interiors.

We highlighted the building’s timeless material palette, elegant lobby spaces, fitness and lounge amenities, and impressive skyline views. The rooftop retreat—with its pool, cabanas, and sweeping city vistas—became a standout moment in the shoot. Each image tells the story of Deco 969’s blend of modern luxury and vintage influence.

Whether at sunrise, sunset, or under city lights, Deco 969 offered endless opportunities for visual storytelling. This project is a milestone for Fort Worth and a rewarding challenge to document.
