Architectural Vision

Right-Sized Residential Architecture

Marland Architecture strives to help you design a home that will work for you and your family and guests now and in the future. Whether you are planning a home for an active young family or a vacation home that will become a permanant residence when you retire, we can help you design only the space that you need and spaces that will be flexible for a variety of uses. We are committed to an ecofriendly lifestyle, and our designs reflect our green mindset. When designing each home, we think about:

 

  • How your house will sit on the land and bask in the natural beauty
  • How the sun can be harnessed for light and heat
  • How the roof could face south for solar panels
  • How windows are placed to give views of the outside
  • How mechanical ducts can be run inside the insulation envelope
  • How plumbing pipes could be centralized to save water and energy
  • How the lighting design and appliance selections can save electricity
  • How material selections affect both initial costs and durability to reduce your maintenance time and expenditures
  • How the plan layout can eliminate wasted space
  • How to provide visual and acoustic privacy between living and sleeping spaces
  • How an all electric house can be better for enviroment 
  • How the space design of your forever home can help achieve goals for aging in place & accessibility 
  • And so much more.
