Roost Architecture, Inc.

We believe that good design is making spaces that make you want to come home to roost. Good design begins with understanding; understanding how we build, how we live, and how we affect the environment around us. As our modern culture has developed, we have become increasingly specialized which is why we focus on responsible designs. This means protecting land, using responsible materials, and designing carefully so we can inhabit more efficient and inspiring spaces. Visiting your land or space and getting to know your lifestyle allows me to design a functional and sustainable environment exactly as you had imagined. Experience has provided an understanding of local building codes, especially with historic homes. This knowledge lends to an efficient design approval process so your project can be completed in a timely manner. If you are ready to explore how you could start living differently and how spaces can enhance life and represent your values, let’s get started. -- Joshua Dourte founded Roost Architecture as a boutique architectural firm with an emphasis on residential design.
