We have worked with Christopher many times over the years and he consistently delivers high quality architectural design with strong attention to detail and a clear vision from start to finish. He is professional, responsive, and easy to collaborate with throughout the entire building process. > > On top of being a talented architect, Christopher is genuinely fun to work with. He brings great energy to every project and makes the process enjoyable for both the builder and the client. We always appreciate the teamwork and look forward to working with him again. **★★★★★ — mtgirlann, Dec. 2020** > Chris Phelps took a few ideas in our heads and pictures in our hands to design for us the most beautiful and functional home. We could not imagine going through this process with someone of lesser creativity and skill. He listened attentively to our ideas and asked questions that tapped into unspoken goals. Chris shared his professional opinion on what would work and not work for a cohesive look and plan for a mountain home over 7000 sq ft. As our understanding of the flow and function of our space came into sharper focus for family, work and ministry, Chris redrew our plans with unusual patience and skill until they were perfect. The man deserves an award for enduring the long evolution of getting our dreams onto paper and soon into reality. On top of all else, he’s fun to be with and and immensely entertaining. We always left his office hopeful and encouraged that our collaboration would produce amazing results. And it has. **Comment from The Studio of Christopher Phelps:** > Thank you so very much for the wonderful review, we really do appreciate it! **★★★★★ — osmanq, Dec. 2020** > Chris handled and managed the requirements of our home meticulously. > > Chris is an.. > Amazing designer. > Superb professional. > Fantastic visionary. > Kind gentleman. > And a Great person. **Comment from The Studio of Christopher Phelps:** > Thank you so much for the wonderful review, we sure do appreciate it. **★★★★★ — Stacy Fandetti, Sept. 2017** > We love our home designed by Chris Phelps. > We had never built a home before, so the prospect of starting from scratch on a vacant lot was overwhelming. Thankfully, a friend referred us to the Studio of Christopher Phelps after she had a great experience working with his team. > From our first meeting, Chris set our minds at ease. He took the time to truly get to know us by asking questions about our family, our interests and which style homes we liked most. From this, his initial design truly nailed our vision. Chris was able to incorporate all of our unique requests for room size and function that flowed into a home design with incredible style. > In summary, we are happy to refer all of our friends to the Studio of Christopher Phelps. His team’s experience, professionalism and value all exceeded our expectations. **★★★★★ — Bronnie Yorke, Aug. 2017** > We always recommend Christopher Phelps to friends who want to build a custom home. Chris is a talented architect who will not only give you a beautifully designed home, but will make the entire process enjoyable. Make an appointment, then relax; you'll be in great hands. **★★★★★ — Mary Sue House, July 2017** > Our experience working with Christopher Phelps was excellent. He designed our house to fit the property that we purchased while insuring that all our needs and wants were included. His design was unique and took advantage of the views while creating an open space that flows well and installs a simple elegance. He was open to different thoughts and ideas and made adjustments for any changes we requested in a timely manner. He was always professional and I would highly recommend him **★★★★★ — Kevin and Ami Torrey, July 2017** > Chris Phelps was great to work with on the design of our custom home. He had beautiful ideas, adhered to a very tight deadline, listened to all our ideas and most of all designed a home within our agreed upon budget. We would do it again it was so much fun! **★★★★★ — Steven Purdy, July 2017** > This team helped up put together a dream house. Their attention to detail is excellent, and they actually LISTENED to us. The end result is a home we don't keep wishing we'd done differently. So far, we've had nothing but compliments on our home. The process we went through with Christopher Phelps and his team was one of the best I have experienced to date. We had ample time to review and make changes on paper before we started construction. They are very thorough and professional in every aspect, and we enjoyed working with them. I would not hesitate to recommend them to a good friend! **★★★★★ — Joseph Gaudino, July 2017** > I would highly recommend Chis Phelps to design your next home. My wife Rhonda and I are pleased with the house he designed for us and we enjoyed the thoughtful process of including our needs and wants into the design. I love my office crows nest that looks out over the mountains! **★★★★★ — bobdesign, July 2017** > We hired Chris Phelps to design our new home and really enjoyed working with him. Chris was responsive, professional, and showed great creativity during the process. He was also very helpful in understanding and communicating the way each feature or design choice would impact the budget and what the trade offs for each choice would be. > > Chris designed an amazing home for us. He and his team were truly a pleasure to work with. **★★★★★ — Teresa DeBruhl, July 2017** > We had never used a professional architect or building company in any of our previous builds. The location of this home and the fact that this was to be our "empty nest" home, we wanted the best and Mr. Phelps took our inspiration photos and expectations and put them to paper. If we didn't like it, he would change it. The process was methodical but worth it. We started completely from just a list of wants and some pictures and off it went from here. We are amazed at his talent and ability and would use him again!! **★★★★★ — Courtney Purviance, March 2015** > Chris's design was near perfect on the first draft. With the small changes we collectively made, our house turned out beyond our expectations. > > Chris was extremely creative and practical in the design. ## Selected projects - [Another beautiful home designed by The Studio of Christopher Phelps](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/another-beautiful-home-designed-by-the-studio-of-christopher-phelps-pj-vj~4610165) - Location: Charlotte, NC - Photos: 19 - [Charlotte, NC and Surrounding areas](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/charlotte-nc-and-surrounding-areas-pj-vj~2641694) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [New Custom Home - Raleigh, North Carolina](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-custom-home-raleigh-north-carolina-pj-vj~2908636) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 25 - [Asheville and the Surrounding areas.](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/asheville-and-the-surrounding-areas-pj-vj~2641728) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 16 - [Exteriors](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/exteriors-pj-vj~965213) - Location: Charlotte, NC - Photos: 50 - [Interior's](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/interior-s-pj-vj~132551) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 37 - [On the Boards](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/on-the-boards-pj-vj~2338267) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [The Club at Longview](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-club-at-longview-pj-vj~115107) - Location: Charlotte, NC - Photos: 5 - Description: French Eclectic - [Raleigh, North Carolina](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/raleigh-north-carolina-pj-vj~115059) - Location: Raleigh, NC - Photos: 3 - Description: Custom Craftsman Style Home - [Graham Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/graham-residence-pj-vj~118036) - Location: Salibury, NC - Photos: 3 - Description: French Chateau - [Tuscan Casa](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tuscan-casa-pj-vj~2443311) - Location: Charlotte, NC - Photos: 4 - Description: Tuscan inspired home located in Charlotte, NC. - [Charleston, South Carolina](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/charleston-south-carolina-pj-vj~118001) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 5 - Description: Collection of South Carolina Homes - [Pellyn Woods](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pellyn-woods-pj-vj~115091) - Location: Charlotte, NC - Photos: 2 - Description: French Country - [Palm Beach Style Build](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/palm-beach-style-build-pj-vj~2055788) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Tuscan Architectural Design](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tuscan-architectural-design-pj-vj~2825586) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 [See all 15 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/the-studio-of-christopher-phelps-pfvwus-pf~310566526) ## Ideabooks - [Asheville Area](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/91437871/list/asheville-area) — 10 ideas - [Charlotte Area](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/91437853/list/charlotte-area) — 5 ideas - [Coastal Area](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/91437878/list/coastal-area) — 1 idea [See all 3 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/christopherphelps) ## Community Q&A **Q: How many bedrooms?
