Architectural Design

Custom Design

Chicago homes present architectural puzzles that generic design firms struggle to solve. From maximizing light in narrow lot conditions to navigating historic district requirements, residential architecture here demands intimate knowledge of both craft and code. Whether you're envisioning a new rooftop addition, complete home renovation, or ground-up construction, thoughtful design shapes every decision that follows.

Our licensed architects bring two decades of Chicago-specific experience to your project. We design with the building in mind—understanding how steel connections work, where mechanical systems run, and what the permit office will flag before we draw a single line. This builder's perspective eliminates the disconnect that plagues architect-only firms whose beautiful drawings prove impossible to construct.

You get more than drawings; you get a design partner invested in your project from concept through completion. Site visits, material selections, and contractor coordination all flow through our team, ensuring the vision captured on paper becomes reality on-site.
