Founded in 2015 in Norfolk, Virginia, GARC is a boutique design studio and an award-winning architecture firm renowned for crafting highly personalized and impactful designs. We serve a diverse client base in Virginia, Maryland, Washington D.C., and New York, dedicating ourselves to enhancing their living, working, and communal spaces.

Our approach at GARC is client-centered and research-oriented. We excel in designing spaces that are true reflections of our clients' visions and aspirations. We tailor each space to represent the essence of you, your family, or your business, ensuring that every environment we create has a meaningful connection with its users. 

We believe the future of architectural design is to provide a higher-level product for both professional services AND new ideas.  Our work is developed from the strategic thinking of social contexts, human behaviors and environmental concerns.

GARC's work incorporates holistic design solutions integrating architecture, interior and landscape design.  We also provide multiple levels of consultant services.  If you wish to have a stress-free process with guidance on every aspect of the project, we offer a full service that starts from initial programming to identify your needs, to the completion of the construction.  If you are simply looking for a better understanding of how to start your project, what the road map ahead looks like, or if you just want to explore the project’s potentials, we offer our Vision Design as a separate stand-alone service.
