Rodwin Architecture Creates Exquisite Custom Green Homes custom green homes nationwide. The firm’s diverse portfolio is equally adept with both traditional and modern homes.

J

enny Cloudman walked us through her new home, and pointed out with delight one beautiful feature after another. The gorgeous chandelier, the way the giant wall of windows exquisitely captured the view, the fantastic flow from one room to another, the perfectly laid out kitchen. She didn’t have to.

The 4,200 square foot Contemporary Craftsman home by Rodwin Architecture was one of those rare houses where everything feels just right.

“We simply love it”, she concluded. “We couldn’t have been happier with the process. I had so much fun!” It’s not everyday a firm hears a client describe the process of designing and building a dream home as “fun.” But at Rodwin Architecture, the clients’ experience is just as important as the result.

Rodwin Architecture is a boutique architecture and interior design firm that specializes in 2

“Each house reflects the desires and personalities of the individual homeowner,” said Principal Scott Rodwin, AIA, LEED AP. “Our first job is to listen to our clients. Then we offer them back a unique artistic expression of who they are and how they want to live. We strive to make the process of creating their home into one of the most rewarding things they’ve ever done.”

The process of creating a custom home is often described as daunting or frustrating, but Rodwin Architecture’s clients seem to have a consistently positive experience. “They really heard our priorities and presented us with wonderful solutions,” beamed homeowner

Rob Armstrong. “Our house is exactly what we were hoping for.”

Another consistent quality of Rodwin Architecture’s homes is the incredible degree of energy-efficiency each home incorporates.

Most of the houses have utility bills less than half of the national average, and some approach the coveted bar of a Net-Zero Energy use. The firm’s stunning, modern Edge House is one of the most beautiful and thoughtfully crafted homes in the country, and also achieved the rare LEED Platinum Certification, making it one of the greenest homes in America.

Jenny and Rob apparently aren’t alone in their glowing praise of Rodwin Architecture.

This rising star of the custom home world has garnered more than a dozen regional and national design awards for their work. We can’t wait to see what they do next.
