Welcome to Habitat Architecture, the home of the premier residential design architects in the Twin Cities and through out the state of Minnesota.

As you look through pages of our Portfolio you may recognize we are not bound by any one particular architectural style.

On the other hand, our approach in design is based on timeless design principles of architecture, sensitivity to the environmental context as well as contemporary lifestyle, building trends and material.

Make sure to also visit the page Resources, where you may find a lot of important information that could help you better understand the process and of what you need to know and expect. And don't forget to check our Blog page for more good tips and ideas.

Are you looking to build a new home, or thinking about remodeling your current house?

Your first and most important step moving forward is to work with an architect. Someone on your side who is there to guide you through the design and building process and help make the most of this very complex experience and your investment. 

Habitat Architecture is primarily specialized in designing high end custom homes and remodeling of environmentally sustainable residential projects of distinctive character, functionality and architectural integrity.

The work always begins with being good listeners, working together to realize your vision to learn and understand your needs and goals. This is a critical process, carefully planned to create the basis for the greatest rate of success in our working collaboration.

Best results in any building project starts with thoughtful exchange of ideas, desires and the awareness of the critical parameters, unique to each individual and project. Expertise and experience in the residential design field at its highest level, is what sets us apart from the rest, which you would confidently rely in working with Habitat Architecture.

So, where do you go from here?

​

"First Step"
- It is not uncommon for people to know what they want to build, and have thought about it quite a bit – but just don’t know how best to start…

 

- Or worse yet, launch into  expensive design services without  carefully establishing the groundwork and correct parameters for their project.
 

- That's why we developed a process, as we came across many clients and projects which lacked a clear direction and understanding of cost implications and feasibility of the design.
 

It's called "Needs & Options Review"

Our mission is to create the highest outcome through thoughtful and strategic approach during the design process.

     

Designing and building a new custom home or remodeling of your current house and its complexities should not be underestimated. It requires a deliberate appreciation for all the factors involved and a close and collaborative engagement between you and the architect.

     

The strategic approach to the overall budget in every project is the fundamental basis for a successful outcome. Our approach and creative design solutions are the key to maximize the final value and your return on investment. 

​

Our goal is to help you to not only avoid the costly mistakes and pitfalls, but provide you with the expertise and creativity to ideas and solutions  you might not have even considered.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

We recently completed a whole house remodel with Habitat Architecture. Attention to light and flow created spaces both beautiful and functional. Our kitchen is now a wonderful focal point of our home and it is a joy to gather in all of our new spaces. The new areas blend seamlessly with the old creating a historic home with all the perks of new home living (hello closets!)

 

The expertise and experience of Hamid Kashani yielded results far beyond our expectations.
