Robb Report Feature:
"Harris organized the floor plan so that every space, with the exception of the guest bedrooms, has to be walked through and experienced every day. To make the home more intimate, he eschewed long hallways and linear rooms. “A lot of times you see large homes with rooms arranged like a string of pearls—one pouring into the next,” says Harris. “The plan here wasn’t to create some kind of maze, but to have each room naturally flow into the next along the slope of the hill so that it would feel organic.”

Project Basecamp
Without completed construction, great design is expensive paper. Kevin Harris Architect LLC is always looking for better ways to communicate design and collaborate during the construction process. Our latest innovation utilizes a virtual project basecamp for projects under construction. Our project basecamp is an online site where our clients, contractors, sub-contractors and suppliers can go to get up-to-date drawings, share project related information and make the process of completing a built project a tad more simple. If you have a project under construction with our firm, access your project status at project basecamp.
Design Consultation
For clients considering an addition or renovation to their home, a design consultation may be just what “the doctor ordered.” In fact, a design consultation is a “house call”: we visit your home, discuss and sketch possibilities, and answer basic questions about costs and construction alternatives for various home improvements. Together we can explore placement of a needed expansion, re-sculpt awkward facades, correct balance, composition, and add visual interest. We can even recommend how to avoid common mistakes made with additions and renovations. A design consultation is a stand alone service and does not retain the firm for the life of your project. The number of design consultations offered is limited. For more information on the design consultation process click here.
