A Seamless Home Addition Design Experience

The journey to your perfect home addition begins with a detailed planning process. Our initial consultation allows our designers to get a detailed understanding of your preferences, lifestyle, and needs.
Following this, our team can provide comprehensive architectural services. Architectural drawings are required for home additions, as they provide the basis for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems as well as required roofline and interior details. This ensures your home addition follows local codes and allows for a smooth permitting process. What’s more, we can provide CAD renderings, so you can visualize the results and make any changes you’d like.

We take pride in our highly collaborative process, which ensures every aspect of your home addition design aligns with your expectations and the architecture of your existing home. Our commitment is to extend your living space in a way that reflects your lifestyle and enhances your home's value. Discover the possibilities with Arete The Art of Design.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"My condo sold quickly and at ask, and I believe Areté's work helped the sale succeed. I would recommend them to anyone looking to renovate who wants to work with an experienced, professional team!"

"We had the privilege of working with the Arete design team on a design for our main floor powder room. The room is an odd shape needing a gut rehab. Ivana and Dulio listened to our concerns, our goals, and budget. The design they recommended is beautiful and meets all of our demands."

Chris D.

Tampa, FL

"The final project is stunningly beautiful, functional, and thoughtfully designed. Given that the master bathroom is a space we use every day, we could not be happier with the final result. We would unreservedly recommend Arete The Art of Design for your next remodel where you are looking for that little extra oomph."
