Our architectural design services are tailored to meet our client’s budget and lifestyle requirements, as well as what they envision their dream home to be, whether on or off-grid.

Architectural Design

We design our homes to be energy and resource-efficient and leverage our expertise combined with the ideas and passion of our clients. We consider security, fire resistance, outdoor spaces and views, private spaces, hypo-allergenic materials and finishes, minimal maintenance and anything else important to our clients.
