HOMES REIMAGINED WITH CARE
Twin Cities Based Architecture firm specializing in residential renovations and additions.
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.

MEET OUR TEAM OF ARCHITECTS
ASHLEY
Ashley Mitlyng, architect and founder of Mitlyng Design, speaks the language of home. For the past 20 years, she’s been listening to the histories of homes and neighborhoods and helping define the soul of home. Together with a team of talented designers, Mitlyng Design works with the homeowners’ vision for how they want to live. Our designs draw out those elements in an approach that is respectful of character, beautifully functional, and efficiently purposeful.
KATIE
Katie Loecken, associate architect, has been designing residential architecture for the last decade. She was a recipient of the Richard Morrill Award for her Masters Final Project as well as a Design Democracy Fellowship winner while receiving her Masters in Architecture from the University of Minnesota.
“Relational design with our clients is what makes residential architecture especially rewarding. It is an honor and joy to be invited into people’s lives and homes. We not only have the opportunity to build relationships with the families we serve, but we have the privilege to transform their lives through the spaces they “do life” in.” - Katie
Eden
Eden Garton, architect, has been designing with the Mitlyng team for 3 years. She is a graduate of the the University of Minnesota; her 2021 Masters Final Project focused on the relationships between residential typologies within neighborhoods. When Eden is not working, she is likely working on projects to her 1950s St. Paul Home alongside her wife and trusty beagle.
“I fall in love with every home I step foot in – eager to visualize how the space can work for our clients and reflect their unique personalities.” – Eden

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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
