Residential Projects
LD Arch Design focuses on remodels and additions to existing houses. While it can be an exciting opportunity to design and build a new house, it is also a rewarding challenge to bring new life to existing buildings. There are many steps that can be taken to make your existing house greener, more efficient, more functional, and more beautiful; you don’t have to move to have a space that fits your lifestyle. If you are interested in making changes to your home, you can take advantage of a free consultation for your residential project.
