Urban infill is at its finest when the following happens:
  
◾️ It responds first and foremost to the site and highlights the natural surroundings.  
    
◾️ It is sensitive to the local community’s architecture and vernacular.  
  
◾️ It allows for the growth of a community while preserving its character + charm.    
   
◾️ And isn’t ashamed of creating beauty in simple and timeless ways.

May your Christmas be a season full of small, wonderful, and humble moments - like this breezeway.

Did you know that breezeways can provide a legal pathway to offer separate, private space for extended family (or up to two other un-related persons) to live where it normally would not be permitted?

With a background of advocating for de-regulation of tiny homes and other undue burdensome housing laws, we are your no. 1 advocate in finding efficient and affordable pathways to build where it seems that all bets are stacked against you.

DM us if you have a project in mind for 2024, that could use some creative, out-of-box thinking.

What is the missing middle?

The middle is referring to housing types that fall between single-family and large-scale apartments.

It is missing because frankly - the time and effort to legalize the ‘multi-family’ homes makes it not make sense financially.

Developers have to build big, and obnoxious, and well, no one likes what that does to communities.

There are few who see the value in creating the missing middle, and I’m thankful for the client / builder here who saw the vision and created a beautiful property with 8 new dwelling units for Wilmington, NC.

Missing Middle homes like this duplex are the key to strengthening communities, enabling more affordable housing to live in, and keeping its character (and trees).

It all starts with a good site plan. And how to reconnect with the outdoors. This is where healing begins.

What is an Architect???

Architects are professionally trained and licensed generalists of art, building science, construction, engineering, landscape, urban design, and technology.

Taking inspiration from clients, traditions, nature, theory - architects translate ideas into inhabitable space that emulate and capture beauty.

Architects accomplish this via design documents that detail how to satisfy local codes and construct it while orchestrating the administration of project budgets, timelines and outcomes for their clients.

Simple architecture can be beautiful if it utilizes timeless design principles.

Proportions, the connection to its surroundings, and the small footprint of this single family home creates a wow factor without breaking the bank. With timeless design, it also allows you to incorporate contemporary touches as well, like the black siding, but still feel familiar and comfortable to the neighborhood.
