Our work
Our firm specializes in designing homes to meet our clients’ specific needs and wants. From jewel box cottages to grand estates, we pride ourselves in providing excellent designs to meet our clients’ lifestyle. Our design talent and construction know-how allow us to design homes to meet any design style or direction.
This modern custom home, slated to start construction later this year, includes a strong mix of exterior materials, color and spaces filled with light. Creating spaces that flow between rooms with specific memory points gives JMAA the opportunity to have fun with the design no matter the size of the house. This home has simple massing forms, with recessed openings of glass to express the shadow lines and massing. The front is a relatively simple controlled form, while the back opens up with clear story windows and glass window walls to the private rear yard.
