WHAT DRIVES US
Where the best things in life happen.
The homes we design are modern, purposeful, and user-driven. They welcome gatherings, encourage family, and express, enable and enhance everyday life. They become the backgrounds for your life’s most unforgettable moments.
WHAT WE CREATE
We've honed our award-winning design process while working with dozens of clients on projects located both near and far.
A DESIGN PROCESS WITH AWARD-WINNING RESULTS
Your home starts with you.
You are the most important part of this whole process. When you’re excited, we are excited. So our ears perk up when you explain your visions and goals. We lean in and take detailed notes, as we begin to envision the countless ways we can translate your ideas into a bright, clear solution.
A TEAM OF ARCHITECTS DEDICATED TO YOU
A different kind of architect.
Don’t get us wrong— we're architects, but not the kind you’re thinking of. Sure, we craft breathtaking functional spaces, call scribbles drawings, and know all the fancy words for an entryway. But the truth is architecture isn’t that complicated.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
"We went into the design process with a pretty clear notion of what we wanted. Not only did Eric and Dana at Lucid help us realize that vision; they propelled the design from sound to spectacular. Our home is everything we wanted, and more."

Floating Roof, Grounded Design
Look closely, the roof on this modern home is not just for shelter, it’s a statement.
Those continuous windows? They give the roof a weightless, floating effect. But here’s the secret: it’s all supported by a series of thin structural columns, hidden from view.
Clean, clever, and quietly complex - just how we like it.

Headed to the lake for the holiday weekend?!
Lower Shore is a northern Michigan lakeside masterpiece that blends modern design with natural serenity, perched on the edge of Lake Michigan like it was always meant to be here.
Glass, steel, and driftwood-hued siding form a quiet structure, held between woods and water. Tucked gently into its site and open wide to the lake. Built to hold summer!
🎧 Sound on. Let the waves speak.

Architecture should do more than inspire. It should perform.
Even though we love design, we geek out on building performance. At Rosy, we carefully calibrated the insulation to maintain thermal comfort for our clients, without infloor radiant heat. Even with a floating floor, feet will be warm and spaces cozy. From smart material choices to advanced modeling tools, we optimize design to ensure your home performs just as beautifully as it looks - now and for decades to come.
Smart insulation. Warm floors. No compromises.

At Lucid, the window is never an afterthought. It’s a design tool. It’s about what to let in - light, shadow, breeze, view - and also what to frame and filter. Beautiful glass boxes do not just happen, they are built with thoughtful and creative detailing.

All kinds of movement out at Northshore! Construction is wrapping up and the owners are beginning to move in - an exciting new chapter is just beginning. Stay tuned as this home comes to life!
And, we love happy design surprises - like the water reflecting on the walls and ceilings!! We honestly never thought of that when we said this home needs a reflecting pool.

Where the wall meets the floor — and nothing gets in the way.
Shadow reveals. No proud edges. Just wall, floor, and lines so clean they disappear. These are the kind of details that do not shout. They whisper intention. They say: we planned for this.

Great architecture doesn’t start with a blueprint - it starts with the site!
For us, every project is a response to its site: the light, the topography, the trees, the wind, the views, and the neighbors. We design with intention, crafting spaces that feel like they belong - not only to the client, but also to the place itself.
