Residential Architects
The best custom home translates a family’s dreams for how they want to live into an architectural space that supports and expands this dream, when completed and long into the future. Possibly because Slade Architecture was founded by a husband-wife team home design is very close to our heart. We create modern homes that have a sense of place and relate to their setting naturally. We consider sustainability, use of resources and ethical material sourcing in all our design work—the home you live in should be consistent with the ethics you live by. This efficiency and ethics applies to the materials and labor used to construct the house as well as the resources and effort required to maintain and operate the house into the future.
Whether you are looking for an architect for a single family home, a design for your vacation home, or a modern update to an existing home. We delight in bringing out the unexpected potential of the project with careful listening, imagination, and attention to detail. We work on a wide variety of projects, from a complete custom design to a focused renovation and/or addition to an existing home. We are a full service architecture and interior design firm.
We have formulated our work process to be the ideal balance of structure and flexibility to suit each client. Slade Architecture has over twenty years of award-winning architecture and interior residential design experience. We know which parts of the process drive success and how to navigate critical milestones to deliver custom residential projects on time and on budget.
Contemporary residential architectural services
Our completed residential projects are as varied as our clients. Our process starts with an in-depth discussion and visioning process through which we iteratively distill our client’s desires and aspirations into a shared understanding that drives our design. It is this attention to the specifics and details, combined with responsible creativity, that sets our work apart and distinguishes each project as unique. Since founding our firm over twenty years ago, we have dedicated ourselves to creating a process that is structured and efficient while also bespoke for each client’s specific concerns and priorities. Our approach to residential design is detailed here.
Award winning home architects
Here are some examples of our award winning residential home architecture projects.
At Greene Street loft, we created an award winning classic NYC loft in SoHo, New York for a couple that became a growing family. In that loft, we also did the interior design and decoration, furniture selection and procurement. For the Link Farm house, we delivered a sustainably designed upstate modern farmhouse in Dutchess County, New York. Link Farm house was recognized as one of the best new homes of the year by the international publication Dezeen, as a Best of Year project by Interior Design Magazine and was featured in the New York times as well as CNN. Kenig Residence was a full renovation of a classic Brooklyn Brownstone for a family with two teenage girls and a single dad. Kenig Residence was won Best of Year (Urban Residence) by Interior Design Magazine.
Another project that won Best of Year apartment design from Interior Design Magazine is the Miami Residence, a modern South Beach apartment. This beachfront interior renovation riffs off the oceanfront location and surfboard fabrication. It started as a modern bachelor pad for the Miami Art Basel fair and ultimately became a pied-a-terre for a newly married couple.
Our projects are as unique as the clients they are designed for. We are proud of the distinctive character of each home. If you are designing a custom home, it should be your unique home. One of our clients once said to us:
“You’ve given me a place that really reflects me. Many of my friends have told me that it is very much my personal style. I’m proud of that. Thank you”.
This alignment between the design and the owner is what is what we always work to achieve in our designs.
