New Homes with Historical References

E-mail

These are new homes designed by residential architect Steve Chambers that use the scale, technique of construction, materials, colors, and details that actually refer to authentic examples of a particular style (historical references). Many of our clients want homes that reflect their heritage, cultural backgrounds, interests, and familial history. Our firm appreciates that good design occurs in every period and style of residential architecture and that there is much joy associated with research and effort to preserve the integrity of a particular design. We strive to reference accurate examples, available to us in architectural history, literature, and travel. We also believe that authentic historical design does not keep us from using the environmentally-conscious principles of sustainability, and modern construction techniques and detailing.
