Working Together
A Home That’s Worth the Investment
Design that respects what’s at stake.
Building a custom home is a major investment—not just of money, but of time, energy, and trust. We help you make it count. From site planning to detailing, we design with intention—prioritizing quality over quantity, simplicity over excess, and long-term value over fleeting trends. The result is a home that respects your investment, lives beautifully, and only gets better with time.
Our Approach: We bring clarity to complex decisions—helping you navigate priorities, avoid costly missteps, and move forward with confidence.
Designing for Property with Character
Your site is part of the story.
Whether you’ve found a wooded hillside, a riverfront escape, or an open Montana meadow, we design homes that respond to their surroundings. We study light, views, and topography to shape homes that feel integrated, not imposed.
Our Approach: We specialize in site-specific design. We read the land before drawing a line.
Custom Homes That Reflect You
Modern, warm, and intentional.
You want something simple but refined. Natural materials. Honest details. A home that doesn’t feel overdesigned, but still feels like art. That’s our sweet spot. We design homes that are modern but livable, tailored to your lifestyle, your values, and your future.
Our Approach: We listen deeply and guide you through every step. Your vision, clarified and elevated.
Design That Understands the Build
We think like designers and like builders.
We’ve worked hands-on in the field. That means we don’t just hand off drawings and disappear. We design with constructibility in mind, stay involved during the build, and speak the same language as your contractor.
Our Approach: We collaborate early, solve problems before they happen, and protect the integrity of the design.
A Process That’s Personal
Small by design. High-touch by choice.
When you work with Artifact, you work directly with us—start to finish. No handoffs, no middlemen. We take on a select number of projects each year to make sure your home gets the attention it deserves.
Our Approach: In our small studio we care about your project as much as you do.
Balancing Legacy and Lifestyle
Retreats, forever homes, vacation spots—we’re here for it all.
Our clients are building spaces that mark a new chapter—downsizing with intention, finding stillness outside the city, or creating something meaningful for now and for the future. Whether this is your forever home or a modern getaway, we design for the life you want.
Our Approach: We’re not just designers. We’re long-term thinkers who design for permanence, performance, and peace of mind.
