Boulder Architect

Our Integrated Vision System™ is a unique process that brings design, budgeting, and construction together from the very beginning, eliminating the gaps and miscommunications that often derail projects.

With our comprehensive planning approach, we deliver your conceptual design and detailed budget within 45 days—a process that typically takes six months or more with traditional firms. Our in-house team meticulously aligns vision and execution, ensuring a seamless, stress-free experience. In fact, we’re so confident in our ability to stay on schedule, we’ll pay you $10,000 if we don’t.

Refined over years of experience in Boulder County, this system prevents the delays, budget overruns, and inefficiencies that impact 90% of high-end custom builds and remodels.

An independent architect may create beautiful designs but isn’t always involved in construction details or cost control. At Tectonic, our architect works directly with builders and project managers to keep design, budget, and execution in harmony from start to finish. This integrated approach helps avoid miscommunication, reduces costly changes, and ensures that what’s designed on paper is built with precision in the field, protecting your budget and time.
