Stephen Sooter Architect

is an architecture and interior design firm specializing in the design of traditional and historically inspired custom residences.  In designing new homes, additions and remodels the firm's work is characterized by a careful attention to detail achieved by only a few firms in practice today.  While working within a variety of historical styles, our primary objective is to create homes that are both beautiful and practical.
Through the use of natural materials and time tested construction methods we strive to create finely crafted homes that will be enjoyed for generations. To ensure the highest level of client service and to offer a unique personal approach, the firm's principal is directly involved in all aspects of the design process.  We work closely with clients to accommodate their needs and work within their budget.
The design process is carried through the development of highly detailed construction drawings to clearly communicate to builders and craftsmen to ensure a final product that meets our client's wishes.
