modern architect reno

Reno’s high-desert landscape, mountain backdrop, proximity to Lake Tahoe, and active outdoor lifestyle make it a perfect setting for our custom residential designs. As a modern architect in Reno, our luxury homes are tailored for resort style living in a four season climate. Expansive glazing that frames wide-open views, skylights that capture Reno's abundant sunshine, and sliding glass walls that open onto covered terraces, all invite year around indoor outdoor living. For cold evenings, fire features indoors and out, provide warmth and places to gather, while heated pools, spas, and outdoor dining areas encourage open air living. Spacious interiors full of natural light open onto lower level anti-basements with room for entertainment and wellness options, like home theaters, home gyms, game rooms, bars, and wine cellars. Whether located in the foothills, along a ridgeline, or in an emerging modern community, our designs live luxuriously, feel connected to the outdoors, and are tailored to the unique vision and lifestyles of our clients, private homeowners and developers alike. 

Designing modern homes in Reno requires an understanding of the local climate, which can include temperature swings, snow loads, and abundant sun exposure, as well as knowledge of local building requirements, like wildfire codes, energy efficiency, and zoning regulations. Hillside and view-oriented sites require additional consideration of grading, retaining conditions, drainage, and coordination with geotechnical and structural teams. As a Reno modern architect, we work closely with engineers, land use consultants, and permit expediters familiar with Nevada permitting and high-desert construction, and are happy to work anywhere in the region, no matter the complexity. With an emphasis on durable materials, modern amenities, natural light, and year around indoor outdoor living, our Reno homes live like custom retreats with the comforts of the luxury lifestyle.
