We found him to be personable, professional and reliable as well as knowledgeable. He has a background in building that was evident in his modification to our house plans; he really understands and can guide you in what will and will not work. I offers cost saving ideas and suggestions about how the house will flow better. He really listens to what you want to achieve and can turn ideas into real plans. We are grateful for his dedicated attention and the insights he provided to improve our house plans. **Comment from Kenneth Miller Architecture:** > Mrs. Lewter, > > You made the process easy for me. It was easy to discuss ideas and options with you and your husband during the design phase and get to the ARB quickly. I can't wait to see the house completed. ### All 24 reviews **★★★★★ — Distinct Builders, LLC, Nov. 2025** > My company, Distinct Builders LLC, is a woman-owned general commercial construction firm based in Charleston, SC. Over the years, we’ve had the honor and genuine pleasure of working with Kenneth Miller on multiple projects across both commercial and residential sectors. Together, we’ve navigated the complexities of historic commercial buildings, as well as modifications and additions to private homes. > Kenneth is exceptional at what he does and has become our trusted, go-to architect. I recommend him wholeheartedly for any commercial or residential architectural needs. **★★★★★ — Savanah Springer, Oct. 2025** > Kenneth did a great job! He knew I wanted to have plans drafted asap and he was incredibly thorough. Super nice and professional as well! **★★★★★ — James Bosserman, Feb. 2023** > We had an excellent experience with KC. KC provided designs he had done previously which together we modified to our desires and needs. The end result was a cost effective design. KC has an excellent reputation with the ARC in Seabrook Island POA and we believe this helped considerably to smooth the way through the approval process. We liked that the process with KC was iterative - with time to consider and think and then make changes. He listened to what we wanted but also provided suggestions and expert advice if he thought we were getting off track. **★★★★★ — smilcetich, Nov. 2022** > KC did a great job getting our custom design on paper match our vision and wish-list; in dealing with the architectural review committee; and in getting us over the finish line and approved. He was always very responsive to our communications, which is of utmost importance when designing your forever home. KC was an advocate in making sure our dream house and investment matched our wishes, but still met the guidelines in the community we look forward to calling home! **★★★★★ — Steve Messineo, Nov. 2022** > We worked directly with KC on our project. I found KC to be very knowledgeable in all aspects of the planning and design of our new home. He was also patient and collaborative throughout the process. Very happy with the results! **★★★★★ — Ryan Easterling, Jan. 2021** > Very pleased with the prompt services and continued support throughout our planning process! We used a current set of plans and KC worked with us to increase the size of the house. **Comment from Kenneth Miller Architecture:** > It was a pleasure working with you and helping to develop the perfect modifications. **★★★★★ — Raymond Smith, Dec. 2020** > Decided to build a new home on Daniel Island. I went to Kenneth Miller on recommendation of my builder. He was easy to work with and made sure to include all of my wish list in the final design. I would highly recommend him. He is approachable and answers all your questions and/or concerns **★★★★★ — Beth Bryant, Dec. 2020** > KC was fabulous to work with and very responsive. We thoroughly enjoyed working with him and would use him again. **★★★★★ — J Johnston, Dec. 2020** > Kenneth (KC) was extremely helpful during our project. We started out with a small renovation that grew into a much larger house remodel and addition. We had a short window to begin the development, and he was very response and timely with his deliverables. I will hire him again if/when we have a need for architectural services. **Comment from Kenneth Miller Architecture:** > Mr. Johnston, > > It was great working with you and Beth. I've spoken with Paul and hear the project is moving along well. I'll stop by the next time I'm over that way. Thank you for the review. **★★★★★ — Larry and Becky LaRoche, April 2020** > We hired KC to draw plans for a new home and present to several difficult HOA boards and committees for approval. KC listened to what we wanted, provided excellent suggestions and was very accommodating throughout the entire process. Together we created a beautiful home. **★★★★★ — Crosby Creations Home Designs, April 2020** > I've worked with KC on a handful of projects. He's been a great asset to our design team and I look forward to a lasting relationship for years to come! **★★★★★ — wdjohnson1, April 2020** > We have used Kenneth Miller’s services on several projects. It is always a pleasant experience working with him. We look forward to working with him again on an up coming project. **★★★★★ — Thomas George, April 2020** > I cannot recommend Kenneth Miller Architecture highly enough! K.C. is a dedicated and knowledgeable professional who operates at the highest level. Our project was a detailed and complex renovation of a 19th Century building in downtown Charleston. This was not a simple project and K.C. was able to complete all aspects of his work in a timely and thorough manner, including interfacing with multiple other professionals on the job and navigating the approval process with the relevant city departments. His communication and response time is top notch. All jobs contain unexpected surprises and K.C. was highly creative in finding solutions to any issues that arose. He always maintained a positive attitude and viewed challenges as opportunities to be solved rather than problems. His work quality is excellent and he was able to meet deadlines and stay on budget. I would not hesitate to recommend K.C. for any architectural project, whether commercial or residential. I look forward to working with him again in the future. **★★★★★ — HU-831162711, April 2020** > KC is my go-to architect. As a local home builder and GC, a lot of my customers aren’t 100% sure on plans, layouts, etc, and its our job as builders and architects to bring the customers vision to life. KC manages to do this with a level of professionalism and grace that is hard to come by. KC will be doing my planning as long as he is willing to do it. Very happy customer here! > > Jonathan Ghant > Jonathan Ghant Homes & Construction LLC > 803-493-0013 > Jonathan@JonathanGhantHomes.com **★★★★★ — thierfelder11, April 2020** > KC Was an outstanding Architect from start to finish. He was personable, thoughtful, urgent, and genuinely cared about our best interest. He also did a fantastic job on the design! **★★★★★ — HU-420132736, July 2018** > Kenneth Miller Architecture is a great firm to work with. KC has helped us design two restaurants. One of which is in historic downtown Charleston. **★★★★★ — HU-5052936171148280558483, July 2018** > KC did an excellent job on my plans for a commercial build-out I was doing for a new business location. I received them in a timely manner, they were exactly as I had requested, and they were fully permitted on the first submission. Couldn’t have gone any better. **Comment from Kenneth Miller Architecture:** > It was a great project to work on. I wish you the best. **★★★★ — Max Crosby Construction, Jan. 2018** > Kenneth Miller designed a multi level deck and balcony project for an 80 year old home in Charleston. The deck included a cook center, seating area, recess for a spa, and an outdoor shower. The balcony come off a second story bedroom, and had stairs descending to the deck, and a storage room under the balcony. Multi functional and well executed design. **Comment from Kenneth Miller Architecture:** > IT was a great project to work on in an older downtown area. Helping to revive pockets of historic areas has been of great personal satisfaction. You did a awesome job with the construction and level of finish. **★★★★★ — Joe Gessner, Jan. 2018** > I have known and worked with KC for about 15 years on various residential projects. He has always produced and conducted himself in a very professional manner. If you are seeking Architectural Services I would highly recommend him. **★★★★★ — Randy Lewter, Jan. 2018** > Kenneth (K.C) was an absolute professional. He was consistently responsive and kept us in the loop. His knowledge and expertise guided us away from pitfalls and added value to our decisions in building our home. I recommend K.C. without reservation. **Comment from Kenneth Miller Architecture:** > Mr. Lewter, > I look forward to visiting the house as building begins. I hope the garage revisions work out like you wanted. **★★★★★ — Dream Home Designs Inc., Jan. 2018** > If anyone is looking for an architect, I highly recommend Kenneth Miller. I have assisted Kenneth Miller Architecture on several projects over the years and found him easy to work with and very knowledgeable about residential construction and building codes. I really like his house designs in keeping with traditional looks of Charleston S.C. **★★★★★ — ericaaliberti, Jan. 2018** > We had Kenneth Miller design our addition (master bedroom and bathroom) and he was fantastic!! Not only was he professional and extremely knowledgeable he was personable, kind and went well above and beyond to make sure we were happy. On our first meeting he rolled up his sleeves and crawled around our attic (which is not a nice place I should add), looked at the construction of our house for load baring walls etc. and within a very short amount of time he came to us with some fantastic plans and ideas that made our dream space come true, and in our budget. We highly recommend Kenneth and frankly wouldn't consider working with anyone else!!! He's that good! We are happy and proud to show our space to anyone looking for physical proof as well :) > > Erica and Jeff Aliberti **★★★★★ — Clarke Design Group, Jan. 2018** > We have collaborated with Kenneth Miller Architecture on many design projects over the past 10 years. Kenneth brings a wealth of knowledge on codes and building practices to each project. And he has a wonderful grasp on current and historical design styles. I would recommend Kenneth Miller Architecture to anyone with a residential or commercial design project. ## Selected projects - [Dalton Street](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dalton-street-pj-vj~2848251) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 52 - Description: Traditional Lowcountry style home located in the heart of Charleston, S.C. - [Indian Village, Mount Pleasant](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/indian-village-mount-pleasant-pj-vj~1467808) - Location: Mount Pleasant, SC - Photos: 8 - Description: Master Suite addition - [Daniel Island](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/daniel-island-pj-vj~15493) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 1 - [Daniel Island](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/daniel-island-pj-vj~15494) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 1 - [Coinbow](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/coinbow-pj-vj~2992105) - Location: Mount Pleasant, SC - Photos: 4 - [Shem Creek Inn Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/shem-creek-inn-renovation-pj-vj~2992115) - Location: Mount Pleasant, SC - Photos: 4 - [Newport](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/newport-pj-vj~980448) - Location: Mount Pleasant, SC - Photos: 13 - Description: Semi-custom home built by Sabal Homes in the Charleston, S.C. area - [Deep Creek](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/deep-creek-pj-vj~7108376) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 100 - [Tidal Terrace](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tidal-terrace-pj-vj~6605172) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Brogun, West Ashley](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/brogun-west-ashley-pj-vj~6488005) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 11 - [Ray S. residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ray-s-residence-pj-vj~6389168) - Location: Charleston, SC - Photos: 14 [See all 11 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/kenneth-miller-architecture-pfvwus-pf~915366760) ## Video - [Company video](https://player.vimeo.com/external/840739610.m3u8?s=3008067f59b2aa005802cccaa0eefdf70ea2bc37&oauth2_token_id=1384357804) ## Frequently Asked Questions **Do you handle permitting, zoning, and regulatory approvals?** Yes, we absolutely handle permitting, zoning, and regulatory approvals.
