Cothran Harris Architecture is a full service Architectural and Interior Design office celebrating our twentieth year in business. Over the years, the office has designed a variety of projects including private residences, apartment complexes, commercial and industrial projects. Private residences designed by the firm have been featured in Coastal Living, Haven, Metropolitan Home, Mid-Atlantic, Washington Spaces and Wrightsville Beach magazines.
We can provide traditional architectural design drawings, 3D visualization as well as physical models for our clients. We can provide electronic files after completion of the design for facility management. Designers at Cothran Harris Architecture pride themselves on developing architectural ideas through consensus with the owners. We isolate the primary goals and aesthetic concerns of your project, and integrate these ideas appropriately into the architectural design.
Residential projects include vacation cottages as well as family homes. We work with you to make sure your home meets your needs on the inside as well as instilling a sense of pride when you look at the exterior. We do not promote a signature architectural style, but work to ensure the exterior style chosen is appropriate for the size and massing of the interior rooms. We work with clients to make sure their homes meet Energy Star standards. We are working on a LEED for Homes certification for a project currently under construction.
Commercial projects include the design of apartments, art galleries, banks, car dealerships, business offices, factory buildings, a shipyard facility, and warehouses. We have worked with many organizations to identify their long term goals, set budgets and plan for the future. We are familiar with LEED 3.0 criteria and understand the difference between good design and chasing certification points. Good design is good business.
