Nautilus Architects

At Nautilus Architects, we view the practice of architecture as a service and an art. We believe that architecture should not only accommodate but also inspire. Our design process involves collaboration and interpretation, and each design evolves in its own way in response to site, context, program, and client. We recognize that the environment has a profound effect on life, which is why our projects are tailored through landscape, building, and interior to fully realize the potential of each situation. Our work is characterized not only by appearance but also by consistent quality across a range of conditions. We listen carefully to our clients and work with passion to meet and exceed their goals.

Our Philosophy

We don't do everything, but we can do anything. Our approach begins with a blank slate and no preconceived ideas, taking form based on the unique character of each client and site. This philosophy is reflected in our diverse range of projects, from contemporary designs that emphasize innovation and sustainability to classic designs that balance warmth and minimalism. We are committed to creating homes that not only withstand the challenges of their environment but also embrace them with innovative design features.

Our Team

Our team is led by Christopher Arelt, AIA, LEED AP, who brings a deep understanding of the design process and a passion for creating spaces that are both beautiful and functional. With a focus on collaboration and innovation, we work closely with our clients to understand their needs and exceed their expectations.

Services

Our services include architectural development, site selection, zoning, and community engagement. We offer a comprehensive approach to design, from initial concept to final implementation. Whether you're looking to renovate an existing space or build a new one, we can help you bring your vision to life.

Projects

Our portfolio includes a range of projects, from residential renovations to commercial developments. Each project is tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of our clients, incorporating elements of sustainability, functionality, and aesthetics. We are proud to have received numerous awards and recognition for our work, including multiple awards and finalists in the Cottage and Garden awards.
