Our Approach to Design
Designing a custom home is an extremely rewarding and collaborative endeavor; one that offers the unique opportunity to create beautiful spaces that manifest and support our relationship to the site and region. At CahillStudio, every project begins by getting to know our clients, how they live, and understanding their goals. Founder Chris Cahill believes a home should be an expression of its owners, their values, and what they love; a one-of-a-kind balance between energy and serenity.
CahillStudio’s work is firmly rooted in the principles of regional architecture, combining authenticity and simplicity of form, humility in response to nature, and a devotion to architectural craft and environmental stewardship. Collaborations with our clients present a distinct opportunity for innovative design solutions that are bolstered by their aspirations, desires, goals, budget. In support of this, we leverage our professional partnerships with a talented group of artisans, craftspeople, and builders by engaging them in the process from start to finish.
At CahillStudio, collaboration is at the core of our ethos. From inception to realization, we work in unison with the landscape architect, interior designer, and builder to ensure a holistic design that is a seamless integration of building and landscape. This in turn introduces our clients to the possibilities inherent in design.
What people are saying

His collaborative approach ensured that our ideas and preferences were heard and synthesized into a thoughtfully designed, comprehensive, budget-conscious project that fulfilled our dreams and exceeded our expectations."
