Design. Build. Wow.
LANDS DESIGN
How we make homes.
We see a home as both a place that works hard for you and a sanctuary that offers space to pause, reflect and grow — a place where you can truly see the world from. In order for this to happen effectively for you, LANDS DESIGN does things differently: A More Integrated Approach.
What sets LANDS DESIGN'S process apart is that we handle every aspect of your project from start to finish. While most architecture offices involve a team of specialists—designers, draftspeople, engineers, and interior designers—who work separately on different pieces of your project, I manage it all myself. This means that everything—from the architectural design and preliminary structural systems to the interior design—is thoughtfully integrated from the very beginning. The result is a cohesive experience, and home, with no disconnects between form and function. You’ll receive a fully integrated service and home design package, and your home will reflect your singular vision and intent.
Whether you’re building from the ground up or transforming an existing layout, we produce homes and ideas that align with what you're imagining -- combining our knowledge with experience and a knack for problem-solving, we become your killer reliable architectural partner. We stay through every phase with you and the builder, ensuring intentional design + value engineering continuity and acting as your liaison to keep the project running smoothly, so your many now-organized ideas comes to life as you’ve envisioned it. Simple enough. No-nonsense. Just hard work, wisdom and creativity. For you.
Between foundation and finish lies something more important---clear intention.

That means your project is creative, nuanced, efficient, and integrally considered from the start.
I'm your huckleberry.
"I combine high-level design thinking and a knack for problem-solving to make a home that reflects how you actually live – and how builders actually build – grounded in experience. My clients don’t feel like they’re juggling multiple components—they feel like someone’s got their back. Because I do."
