HOMES REIMAGINED WITH CARE

Mitlyng Design is an Architecture firm specializing in residential renovations and additions that honor the character of homes and enhance the everyday lives of busy homeowners.

 

YOUR PARTNER FROM START TO FINISH — AND BEYOND

We know home renovations are significant, sometimes once-in-a-lifetime, investments. We’re with you through the entire process (from the design mood board to the final construction walk-through), thoughtfully considering what you need from your home while keeping your budget, goals, and vision in mind.

MODERN LIVING THAT HONORS YOUR HOME

We specialize in helping you make the place you already know and love work better for you. Known for our ability to seamlessly blend old and new, our designs account for modern living while honoring the original character of your home.

BEAUTIFUL SPACES THAT WORK

Clients come to us because their living spaces aren’t functioning in a way that supports the current season of their lives. As a team of Architects, we care not only about how your space looks but also about how it flows and functions to support your life today and for many years to come.

TESTIMONIALS

One thing that sets Mitlyng Design apart from other architects and designers is that they work with clients throughout the project to hit budget numbers.
— Ben Yanz, Owner, Yanz Builders
Mitlyng Design partnered with us throughout the entire project, like the intermediary between us and the contractor. Their advocacy from start to finish really appealed to us because we felt like weren’t alone. This ended up being such a valuable thing.
— Rambler Revised Homeowners
I knew by their standards that mine was a pretty small project. But they never made me feel like it was a small project. I felt important.
— Essential Ericcsson Homeowner
All the architects we met with were super competent, but Mitlyng Design had the personality. We felt respected and listened to. They really understood what we were trying to say.
