why

We created Christie Architecture as a collaborative design office and workshop offering architecture, furniture, and interior design services. It is founded on the principle that design should be representative of its time, physical context, and purpose. We believe each client and project is unique and thus tailor our design responses to each situation.

Whether we are working on a renovation to a traditional house or designing a modern ground-up home, we never ‘start from scratch.’ The design inspiration for each project is fed by the client’s goals and needs, existing conditions, site considerations, and budget. Coupling these concerns with creativity and experience produces projects that exhibit ingenuity, meet our clients’ needs, and come in on budget.

From historic Victorians and Craftsmans to mid-century moderns to new construction, we place a high emphasis on craftsmanship and attention to detail. We work within our clients’ budgets without compromising quality. We participate in all phases of the design and construction process to ensure that our projects are functional, engaging, and environmentally and financially responsible.
