Meet Garrett Burleson
Garrett’s childhood was filled with art and with building, and so is much of his adult life. He was raised by a College Professor and a Computer Scientist, both with a passion for and devotion to art. He has always been interested the intersection of art and science.
Over the past 12 years he has constructed his own tiny home, started and sold a successful landscaping company, earned a Master of Architecture, and worked at several award-winning architecture firms before starting his own practice. Most recently, he worked alongside Architect Pax Chagnon AIA, designing and building structures in the Texas Hill Country.
He has a passion for architecture and landscape design and a sense of gratitude to be able to do what he loves - designing, and guiding clients through the design process to give them a home and landscape that is perfect for them.

We build a 3D model of your home and landscape and walk through it together.
Research of interior and exterior materials.

Construction Documentation and Permitting
We dive into the details of how your home will be constructed and develop the 3D model into a detailed set of construction drawings that a contractor can use to price and build your home.

We make 4-5 site visits to ensure your home is constructed as designed.
