What We Design

Architecture Designing Services We Offer in North Carolina

Eight focused service areas cover the full range of architectural work our North Carolina clients bring us - from a custom home on a Piedmont lot to a permit set for a coastal commercial build.

  1. A‑01 / Residential

    Residential Architectural Design North Carolina

    Every home we design starts with how the people living in it actually spend their day. Our residential architectural design services in North Carolina cover single-family home design, multifamily residential design, and addition & renovation design for homes that have outgrown their footprint. We draft floor plans, elevations, and sections that respect the state's building codes and climate - coastal wind loads, Piedmont humidity, and mountain snow loads each call for different detailing. The goal of every custom home design project is a house that fits how you live, not a plan pulled off a shelf.

    Includes: floor plans · elevations · sections · custom home design

  2. A‑02 / Commercial

    Commercial Architectural Design North Carolina

    Commercial architectural design carries different pressures than residential work - code compliance, accessibility, budget timelines, and a building that has to perform for a business, not just a family. Our commercial building design services cover office building design, retail design, restaurant design, mixed-use building design, and commercial renovation design for North Carolina business owners and developers. We assess feasibility, budget, and timeline early, so the design you approve is realistic to build and operate.

    Includes: office · retail · restaurant · mixed-use · renovation

  3. A‑03 / New Construction

    New Construction Design North Carolina

    Starting from an empty lot means every decision - orientation, layout, structural approach - gets made from scratch. Our new construction architectural design services in North Carolina give you a complete building planning package, from early massing studies through construction-ready drawings, so your project moves from concept to groundbreaking without redesign delays or code surprises later on.

    Includes: massing studies · building planning · construction-ready sets

  4. A‑04 / Renovation

    Renovation & Remodeling Design North Carolina

    Older buildings across North Carolina - from Charlotte's established neighborhoods to Winston-Salem's historic districts - often have real bones worth keeping. Our renovation design services handle home renovation design, building renovation design, addition design services, and adaptive reuse design for structures that need new life without losing what made them worth saving. We design around existing structural conditions instead of ignoring them, which keeps renovation budgets honest.

    Includes: additions · adaptive reuse · structural retrofits

  5. A‑05 / Conceptual

    Conceptual Architectural Design North Carolina

    Before a project is ready for construction drawings, it needs a direction. Our architectural concept design services help North Carolina clients test massing, layout, and material ideas early - through preliminary architectural design and design development - so the major decisions get made before money is spent on detailed drafting. It's the stage where a rough idea becomes a plan worth building.

    Includes: massing studies · preliminary design · design development

  6. A‑06 / Space Planning

    Space Planning & Interior Architecture North Carolina

    How a building is laid out on the inside affects everything from daily flow to long-term flexibility. Our space planning services cover architectural space planning, interior architecture services, floor plan design, and commercial space planning for offices, retail spaces, and homes alike. Good building layout design isn't about filling square footage - it's about making every room earn its place.

    Includes: floor plan design · layout design · commercial space planning

  7. A‑07 / Site & Building

    Site & Building Design North Carolina

    A building's design doesn't stop at its walls. Our site planning services in North Carolina address architectural site design, site development design, and both residential and commercial site planning - grading, drainage, setbacks, and how the structure sits on its lot. Getting site design right early prevents costly surprises during permitting and construction.

    Includes: grading & drainage · setbacks · site development design

  8. A‑08 / Permit Support

    Permit & Construction Design Support North Carolina

    A design is only as good as its ability to get approved and built. Our permit drawing services and construction documentation are prepared to meet North Carolina jurisdictional requirements, giving you architectural construction drawings and building permit plans that move through review efficiently - a buildable, permittable package your contractor can actually execute.

    Includes: permit sets · construction documentation · code review

Why North Carolina architects, builders, and developers draft with us

  • 04

    Experience across project types
