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."

We’re problem-solvers at heart.
Every project comes with its own set of challenges—site constraints, budget limitations, design dreams—and we love digging into those. For Pier Cove Residence, the challenging site between an existing cottage and a utility easement could’ve been a limitation. Instead, it became an opportunity. We used the footprint to frame and capture a perfect Lake Michigan view—proof that great design often starts with a challenge.

This home didn’t just happen — it was crafted, challenged, and brought to life by Eric DeWitt and Dana Grassmid of Lucid Architecture, the design duo behind its bold lines and lived-in warmth.
Stay tuned—we’ll be introducing each team member in the coming weeks. Spoiler: they’re all legends.

“It is very fun to live in this house!”
Hearing clients talk about what their home feels like after move-in… that’s the good stuff.

HIDDEN LAKES RESIDENCE // A modern luxury home imagined and designed by Lucid Architecture in Michigan. The home design is centered around a floating glass living room supported by a monolithic concrete fireplace, and also features a car salon, multiple outdoor living areas, and infinity edge pool.
Any guesses what’s parked in the car salon?!?

Who’s ready for summer sunsets at the beach? The view from the primary suite at our Northshore Residence is stunning!

The snow is almost gone, but there is a lot of ice left on Lake Michigan! What a beautifully extreme environment we get to create architecture in here in Michigan!!
