Robbins Architecture

Robbins Architecture Warm Modernism that feels like Home. Author of “The Meaningful Modern Home” In each project, we edit our architecture to express what is meaningful.

Our design approach is one that respects the context, and provides a solution that synthesizes the site influences with the client’s goals. Our work does not adhere to a specific style, yet there is a distinctive aesthetic that is consistent in our solutions. We refine each solution until it has clarity to rely on fundamental design principles of proportion, light, balance and materiality.

We love design. So naturally, the seamless collaboration between interior design and architecture led to building an interior design studio within our team.

We are looking to grow our interior design studio and would love to connect with talented designers who are passionate about thoughtful, collaborative work.

Sharing some favorite moments from this Lake Michigan home and how it embraces the waterline view from nearly every moment within the home

From reflections moving across the interiors to the constant connection to the water, this project was all about capturing an easy, relaxed summer lifestyle heading into Memorial Day weekend.

Here’s to the beginning of lake season.

We’re so excited to have one of our recent home transformations featured in today’s Winnetka Home Tour!

This project was a complete reimagining of the home, with our focus centered on honoring its unique architectural character and celebrating the incredible golf course views. Rather than changing the spirit of the house, we wanted to reveal and elevate what made it so special — bringing a fresh feel while preserving its timeless beauty.

As we often say, “Some homes are less about changing the house and more about revealing it.”

I would love to see you there today between 9:30 AM–2:30 PM!

The team at Robbins Architecture and Interiors 💛
I feel incredibly honored to work alongside such a talented group—people who approach complex challenges with both creativity and care. Together, we sculpt, refine, question, learn, and laugh.
I’m proud of this collaborative studio we’ve built—one where ego takes a backseat and every design decision is guided by a shared goal: to simply “make it good.” ✨

From a simple ranch to something entirely reimagined ✨

We transformed the exterior with divided light windows, a cedar roof, and freshly painted warm white brick—creating a softer, more timeless presence.

Inside, the floor plan was reconfigured to open up the home. But what I love most is our signature edge-to-edge windows which brought in light and a seamless connection to the outdoors.

With these changes, the home’s entire character shifted—layered, warm, and modern, yet rooted in classic details.

Collaborating with Alex Kaehler, whose interior design brought everything together, the result is a home that feels both timeless and refreshingly new 🤍

Spring in Aspen 🌿

This home really comes alive this time of year — the greens coming in, the movement in the trees, everything starting to wake up again.

We designed the glass to hold those moments… pulling the landscape in from every angle and letting it shift throughout the day. Here architecture feels powerful but still without ever forgetting what’s happening outside. 💛

It begins as a three-dimensional rendering — light, proportion, intention.

And then… it becomes this.

Framing exposed. Windows covered for protection. Mud. Noise. Decisions layered upon decisions.

Bringing a home from concept to reality is rarely polished. It’s long days. Thousands of details. Small edits that matter more than anyone sees. Problem-solving in real time.

But there is quiet joy in the mess.

Standing on site and recognizing the form you once held only in your imagination. Watching lines on paper become walls you can walk through.

And most of all — surrounding yourself with talented people who care as deeply as you do. Sharing a passion. Solving together. Building something that will hold a family’s life.

The polish comes later.
The commitment happens now.
