The firm of MGHarchitect focuses on working with the Client to find a unique solution for your home. In many areas there is not space available to build the dream home that you would like in the area where you would like to live, and in many cases, an addition and remodel to your existing house is the preferred design solution to obtaining the home that you want to live in for the next decade or more.

If you want a home that is a new build on a property that you own or are looking for one, the firm can help you find that property also and see what project can be designed for that area.

People often ask if I have designed and built my own home. I have added on and remodeled some spaces in my own home but I too look forward to designing and building my Dream House. These houses are ones that I would design for myself and I am looking forward to building it many times for you, the Client.

If you want a home that is designed and can show similar features and characteristics of some of the projects that are shown on this website, these plans are being designed and developed to fulfill this need of a Beautiful, Modern, Iconic, Sexy and Sustainable House, Forms that are Unique to work with the shape of the existing setbacks or height limits or interesting roof lines that allow framed and composed views to the landscape. A curated Palate of Sensual Interior Finishes and durable Exterior Finishes, Functional Window and Door openings that let light and air into the spaces and work with the environment as well as and Lighting and Building Systems… and even Fixtures and Furnishings…

All in an MGHarchitect style. Architectural Houses that are oriented on the land to capture the views and work with the terrain, the solar orientation and the climate of the area for indoor-outdoor living, human-scaled areas that encourage communal and solitary living spaces where one can live comfortably:

Casual and Elegant Architecture that Defines a Lifestyle.
