Marcela and Logan Architects
We are a wife & husband architecture firm.
The services an architect provides are often misunderstood, or at least underestimated. We approach each project as an opportunity to change this. Our clients often have a vision, one they've populated Pinterest boards with, lost sleep from, and modified several times over as their own desires and interests evolve. More often than not, What's missing is the ability to tie all these concepts together into something that's cohesive, exciting, rewarding, and affordable! this is where we come in. Our experience with the design process allows us to extract the similarities amongst all your ideas and present to you, through multiple digital mediums, a complete picture of what can be done. our goal is to instill a level of confidence within you that leaves no doubt you've made the right decisions.
We look forward to an opportunity to take this journey with you.
