Studio Authentic Architects

We specialize in a diverse range of projects, including custom homes, major additions, and high-quality residential renovations. Beyond residential, we also have extensive experience in multifamily residential, commercial office, and education projects throughout Northern Virginia and the DC metro area. We design buildings we would build ourselves, focusing on long-term value.

We approach every project with a developer's understanding of pro forma and long-term value, not just aesthetics. This means we design buildings we would build ourselves, focusing on durable, long-term investments. We balance authenticity and innovation to ensure your project performs within your budget while delivering enduring design value.

Our principal architect, David Jimenez, ensures direct involvement on every project, guiding you through initial programming, permit submission, and comprehensive construction administration. We are committed to seeing your vision through to completion.

Absolutely, designing fully custom homes is one of our core specializations. We create bespoke homes tailored for clients in Arlington, McLean, Alexandria, and Washington DC.
