About Us

Architects With Difference

From Arts and Crafts to Mid-Century Modernism, I have a passion for vernacular architecture and am energized by all styles of design. My understanding of our architectural history is the foundation for adapting existing spaces in a way that preserves their integrity yet serves a modern lifestyle. I build upon my knowledge of our architectural past to create contemporary forms that represent today’s spirit.

I am a licensed architect and hold a Masters of Architecture degree from UW-Milwaukee and a BA from Ripon College. I am a member of the Association of Licensed Architects and a docent for the Madison Trust for Historic Preservation’s architectural tours. I have conducted public seminars on vernacular architecture and have instructed architectural and perspective drawing at Madison College. My work has been published in Madison Magazine, Re-Nest, Fine Homebuilding, and Remodeling Magazine (among others). And, my designs have won numerous awards, including the Chrysalis Award, Qualified Remodeler Master Design Award, and multiple NARI recognitions.

Green

Beautiful buildings, by today’s standards, are judged so by their performance as much as their aesthetic. Buildings are the source of 48% of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. It’s our responsibility to design smarter and build better for the welfare of our environment. But there are also compelling, and tangible economic and health benefits to building green. Green-built homes are necessarily quality homes and thus, retain strong value and require less maintenance. Efficient homes will reduce volatile energy costs. And, there are many financial incentives and tax rebates available for incorporating green strategies into our homes. Green homes also incorporate non-toxic materials and finishes – benefiting indoor air quality and the health of their inhabitants.

A green strategy requires a holistic approach, examining energy use, water consumption, choices in building materials, building orientation and landscaping. Throughout the design process, we’ll examine these elements, and determine which approach makes sense for your project and budget, being careful to consider options for additional green strategies to be implemented in the future.
