We use a distinct hands-on approach to architecture combining a playful design process, collaborative relationships with clients, and partnerships with builders and fabricators. Our projects prioritize building strategies that reduce waste, and utilize recycling and reuse. Living light feels right.

Services
Hiring an architecture firm to design a new home or commercial space is exciting, but it is also a regulated and licensed process. Timelines can vary between 16-30 months for most residential or small commercial projects-longer if you live in an area where building schedules are hectic and building permits are complicated (coastal regions or major cities).
With the exception of the lightHouse, each Alchemy design is crafted to fit the owner's program. For more detailed information about how we work, download Alchemy's brochure.
Alchemy is an architectural design firm that works with independent factories and contractors around the continental United States and Canada to build our designs using various construction methods: prefab modular, prefab panels (a kit of parts), or on-site-building (stick-building).We work alongside the Owner throughout the design and build process.

Budgets dependent on many variables. The best source for site work numbers is a local, licensed general contractor. Project budgets include: Structure Cost + Infrastructure Cost + Foundation/Site Work + GC Fee + Alchemy Fee. A frequently asked question is: "How much does a weeHouse/barnHouse/custom house cost?"
Gather preliminary estimates for modular work from Alchemy as well as site work from local General Contractors. Schedule a site visit with Alchemy to better examine your location and program.
