Every detail is thought of and unique. Clean lines and symmetry abound. **★★★★★ — lcrabo, Jan. 2022** > We worked with Regan McClellan and Chris Tellone on the design and construction of our home from start to finish. It was a great experience. The process was highly enjoyable, as the architects worked collaboratively with us and listened thoughtfully to our ideas. In general, if we brought a concept or slight change to them they refined and elevated it. Our home is cohesive, elegant, and just what we wanted. **★★★★★ — Manager Seven Hills Winery & Estate Vineyard, Oct. 2019** > I had the pleasure of working with Regan on several new construction projects and he listened very carefully and provided a beautiful design. I loved the fact that his firm provided complete design service including architectural, interior and landscape design. The “one-stop” shopping made it very easy for us and provided a design that flows beautifully from inside to outside. Everyone on the team was wonderful to work with. He shows a great respect for existing context, and his structures fit into our various working environments effortlessly. > > Regan is a great communicator and creative thinker. I would highly recommend him for anyone that is looking for beautiful and integrated design. **Comment from McClellan \| Tellone:** > Thank you for the great recommendation! It was a pleasure working with you. **★★★★★ — DLH Inc, Nov. 2017** > DLH inc is a general contracting firm specializing in high quality construction and quick project timelines. Over the years we have had the pleasure of working on numerous projects with Regan McClellan and his firm McClellan Architects. We consistently recommend him to clients looking for design services. > The greatest compliment we can pay McClellan Architects is that they are consistent. The projects run smoothly because the plans and specifications are complete before the project begins. When questions arise there is always a rapid and thoughtful response paired with a willingness to collaborate with us as the builder and the client for the best possible solution. > We’ve always enjoyed working with Regan and his associates because of their beautifully designed and crafted projects. We highly recommend McClellan Architects and look forward to collaborating on more successful projects in the future. **★★★★★ — Mercer Builders, Nov. 2017** > My company MERCER BUILDERS has had the privilege to work with the area's finest architects over the past two decades and we've collaborated with every firm on the PNW's "who's who" list. In all these years, I have never met an architect as talented as Regan McClellan. He listens to his clients AND to the tradespeople and produces a project that is efficient and economical to build but still highly finessed. I regularly refer him to clients and builders for a reason;;; He is gifted and easy to work with. I highly recommend McClellan Architects if you want an affordable well-crafted home. **★★★★★ — Wine Storage by Vinotemp, March 2017** > McClellan Architects was very professional and pleasant to work with. As design professionals, they collaborate efficiently with others and are focused on the satisfaction of their clients through outstanding design. **Comment from McClellan \| Tellone:** > Thanks for your review. I look forward to working with you again! **★★★★★ — Gary E. Gill, SE, Dec. 2015** > Regan McClellan is the best all around architect I have encountered in my 40 year career as a structural engineer. His talent is unsurpassed which is impressive enough but what makes him stand apart from all the other highly talented architects I have worked with is his ability to maintain a harmonious atmosphere for the entirety of the project. Talent does not always come with a respectful and cooperative nature. In Regan it does. **Comment from McClellan \| Tellone:** > Gary, thanks so much for your wonderful review. As always, it is a pleasure working with you! **★★★★★ — Inviniti Cellar Design, Nov. 2015** > Katie of McClellan Architects was a professional delight to work with. She offered a creative space setting for our company, Inviniti Cellar Design, to offer a full array of design features for the custom wine cellar. She consistantly provided a timely response to our needs. She also suggested wall, flooring and ceiling lighting treatments that complimented our build very well. It was a pleasure to team up Katie and the high quality company of McClellan Architects. We look forward to working along side The McClellan Architects and Katie again. **Comment from McClellan \| Tellone:** > Thank you for your review. We certainly hope to work with you again in the future! **★★★★★ — Quantum Windows & Doors, March 2015** > One look at McClellan Architects' project portfolio and the discerning homeowner will discover the level of expertise to be expected from this firm. We at Quantum have been fortunate to participate in several of their projects, and are very impressed with their communication, professionalism and of course their talent! **Comment from McClellan \| Tellone:** > Thank you! We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to work with Quantum Windows and Doors again in the future. **★★★★★ — ronfhouzz, Feb. 2013** > We selected McClellan Architects for our new custom home because their portfolio gave us confidence they could design the house we were looking for. We are nearing completion of our custom home they designed, and contrary to general building experiences we'd heard about from friends, ours has been a wonderful process. We are extremely happy with the level of detail they designed into the construction, and the assistance they provided for lots of special features we asked for - geothermal for radiant floors, rooftop solar energy panels, counter tops constructed from favorite trees that had to be taken down. They located special cedar for exterior siding and interior detail that is just amazing. They listened to all of our special needs, such as hallways that provide privacy, and they sited the house to maximize our views. Once we move in, I'm certain this will be the home we were looking for. I can certainly recommend McClellan Architects, and if I had another home to construct in the future, I would certainly turn to them.. **Comment from McClellan \| Tellone:** > Thank you for the lovely compliments. It was wonderful working with you on this project. **★★★★★ — ccuevasalbert, Nov. 2012** > We used Regan McClellan & his team at McClellan Architects for our custom built home. > > The design was creative, dynamic and captured exactly what we had envisioned for our new home. Rather than being stressful or difficult, the process of working with McClellan Architects was collaborative and fun. > > In additional to designing the main house, auxiliary living quarters and > outdoor living spaces, McClellan Architects provided guidance and advice on our interiors and landscaping. It was important to us that all aspects of the project (interiors, exteriors and landscaping) were complimentary. > > I highly recommend McClellan Architects for any residential & commercial > design needs. **Comment from McClellan \| Tellone:** > Thank you for the wonderful compliment! It's delightful to hear that you enjoyed our design process. **★★★★★ — B McGregor, Oct. 2012** > The team at McClellan Architects were fabulous to work with and we love the home they designed for us. It's not only beautiful, but it's very functional. McClellan Architects listened to our needs and created an amazing house for our family to build a lifetime of memories in. The home was even given a design recognition award by the American Institute of Architects. I'd highly recommend McClellan Architects. **Comment from McClellan \| Tellone:** > Thanks so much. It was a pleasure to work with you on this project! ## Selected projects - [Feniks](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/feniks-pj-vj~7755368) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 19 - [Salix](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/salix-pj-vj~7754441) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 24 - [Sandy Cove](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sandy-cove-pj-vj~7749701) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 20 - [Corvus](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/corvus-pj-vj~7520807) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 22 - [Eyrie](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/eyrie-pj-vj~7218754) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 30 - [Tahoma](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tahoma-pj-vj~7129268) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 33 - [Perch](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/perch-pj-vj~7218149) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 21 - [Glasswing](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/glasswing-pj-vj~6822554) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 26 - [Bear Run](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bear-run-pj-vj~6751417) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - [Breakwater](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/breakwater-pj-vj~5892714) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - [Courtyard](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/courtyard-pj-vj~7520796) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 21 - [Island Equestrian Cottage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/island-equestrian-cottage-pj-vj~7520188) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Eastlight](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/eastlight-pj-vj~2060719) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 39 - [Lake House One](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-house-one-pj-vj~23586) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 21 - [Lake House Two](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-house-two-pj-vj~23537) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Bay House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bay-house-pj-vj~439089) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 39 - [Water House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/water-house-pj-vj~1408694) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 33 - [Holly Hill](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/holly-hill-pj-vj~7218135) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 14 - [Myrtle](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/myrtle-pj-vj~2308722) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Central Washington River House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/central-washington-river-house-pj-vj~23600) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 20 [See all 27 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/mcclellan-tellone-pfvwus-pf~1921060366) ## Ideabooks - [Hall Residence](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/119601238/list/hall-residence) — 1 idea - [Home office ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/109953399/list/home-office-ideas) — 9 ideas - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/106300976/list/wish-list) — 1 idea - [3203 house](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/5134089/list/3203-house) — 5 ideas - [Built-in beds](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/90824421/list/built-in-beds) — 6 ideas - [Bathrooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/79266732/list/bathrooms) — 8 ideas - [Anacortes Home](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/66534213/list/anacortes-home) — 1 idea - [Stone Facades](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/62913098/list/stone-facades) — 1 idea - [Glass Wine Cellars](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/57973625/list/glass-wine-cellars) — 5 ideas - [Medina Entry](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/56987214/list/medina-entry) — 5 ideas - [Orcas Island House](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/53101387/list/orcas-island-house) — 5 ideas - [Ballard Craftsman](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/51177071/list/ballard-craftsman) — 23 ideas - [AIA Website](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/45617733/list/aia-website) — 47 ideas - [Skinny Sinks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/41807994/list/skinny-sinks) — 4 ideas - [Modern Rustic](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/26254694/list/modern-rustic) — 11 ideas - [Wood hot tubs](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/26333337/list/wood-hot-tubs) — 9 ideas - [Kids' Rooms](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/24494963/list/kids-rooms) — 5 ideas - [Ranier Home](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/22973913/list/ranier-home) — 1 idea - [Wood Flooring](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/20424742/list/wood-flooring) — 2 ideas - [3203 landscaping](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/4671255/list/3203-landscaping) — 3 ideas [See all 21 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/mcclellan-tellone) ## Community Q&A **Q: Would love to know what is housed in the raised section of the island.** *(in Photo Questions)* When most people want a flat island I love the raised portion of this one.
