We dream in color and challenge the assumption of conventional space; we look beyond the obvious for unique and tailored solutions. Besides traditional design and construction, we have successfully utilized a hybrid building system which combines custom designed modular components, prefabricated wall/floor/roof panels and field-built construction for both new construction and additions. We provide comprehensive, creative design services for residential, small commercial and religious clients in Maryland, Virginia and Washington DC. Every project is personal for the Client, it's personal for us as well. We look forward to the opportunity to be of service.

"Berny is a very nice and professional person to work with. He is very knowledgeable at what he knows in the architect world and is on point with what he does. Berny is very thorough and his work is absolutely perfect when done and completes his work in a timely manner. I highly recommend Berny to do your work and I am very 5 stars satisfied with Berny Hintz."
