C. Alexander Design

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been sketching elevations and floor plans on any surface I can find – a Post-It, a napkin, a notepad, an asphalt driveway, loose-leaf paper (to my school teachers’ dismay), you name it. I constantly examine how homes can be improved, inside and out. Through in-home consultation sessions, informal sketches, and SketchUp modeling, I help clients realize the ways in which they can improve the spaces they call home, often focusing on architectural changes like cabinetry, mill work, layout, etc. My primary goal is always to bring to life a client’s personality in their space — I firmly believe that our homes are an extension of self and that what we choose to bring inside and how we choose to use our space reflects who we are and aspire to be. A few of my tenets: Less is (often) more. Timeless over disposable means that the perfect item is often worth waiting for. Windows and doors are the eyes, ears, and nose of a home and deserve the utmost care and attention.
