Award-winning residential architect designing custom luxury homes nationwide

Our approach to designing custom homes

As a boutique architecture studio, Red Pencil Design takes on a limited number of custom residential commissions each year to ensure principal-led design attention. Our process begins with a deep understanding of how our clients live, entertain, and experience space. We translate those insights into refined architectural concepts that balance modern design innovation with timeless material integrity. Every residence is tailored to its site, climate, and lifestyle requirements—resulting in homes that are both visually striking and highly livable.
