Residential Architectural Designer
I create homes for discriminating families who understand the intrinsic value of green building and great design. My background is in design, so I come to the building process from a different perspective than a traditional builder who started as a carpenter or tradesman.
As a designer, builder, and mom, I bring my understanding of form and function to build a home for your family to thrive. I truly believe that good design can improve your life and add to your family’s comfort. Good design can reduce maintenance, improve organization and make daily activities easier, even more fun! My goal is to really get to know your family, how it works, what you like (and don’t like) to build a home just for you.
Environmentally Sustainable Choices
I believe that a Green home must be:
Energy Efficient – if it isn’t, the rest doesn’t matter. Energy efficiency comes first, before solar power, before bamboo flooring, before anything else.
Healthy for your family, otherwise what is the point?
I will build you a snug, well-insulated home that is energy efficient and healthy because it is not a green home if we don’t meet those two criteria. I believe in Structural Insulated Panels, closed cell foam insulation and heat recovery ventilators to help me accomplish those goals.
Now, when it comes to everything else, the choices will be up to you as the homeowner. Hardwood floor vs bamboo, concrete countertops vs. granite, linoleum vs. vinyl there are hundreds of decisions to make and I can advise and give my opinion, but the decision is yours.
