Creators >< Curators

At GDArch, we specialize in crafting exceptional custom residences for discerning clients who expect the highest standards in design, service, and execution. From concept to completion, our process is grounded in a simple yet powerful philosophy: Partner >< Support

We Partner. Your vision, lifestyle, and aspirations form the foundation of everything we do. We take the time to know you; to understand not just what you want, but why you want it—ensuring every detail reflects your personal taste and way of living.

We listen. Your vision, lifestyle, and aspirations form the foundation of everything we do. We take the time to understand not just what you want, but why you want it—ensuring every detail reflects your personal taste and way of living. The design is not a commodity, it’s a manifestation.

We create. With a passion for timeless design and innovative solutions, we instill construction conventions into efficient and powerful designs. We leverage 3D&VR to clearly present you the vision. No two homes are ever the same—because no two clients are.

We educate. We believe an informed client is an empowered client. Throughout the journey, we explain options, processes, and decisions clearly, so you always feel confident in decisions made. We advocate for you and the design without ego.

We Support. Building a truly custom home shouldn’t be rushed. We invest the time to do things right—with the right people—ensuring your home’s execution is not only beautiful, but enduring.

We communicate and collaborate. Exceptional service means being there when you, or the team, needs us. We meet and interface when you can, not just 9-5 in our time zone. Our hours are your hours.

We are your team. Unlike other firms where you are sold by the principal then interface further and further down the chain as your project progresses, our entire team is always accessible, communicative, and proactive—providing peace of mind every step of the way.

We endure. Don’t expect apathy once the drawings are approved. We are, “with you until the forks are in the drawers.”

This is more than a home. It’s your legacy. Let’s create something extraordinary—together.

A Chicago native, Gage has also lived in Los Angeles, Venezuela, Philadelphia and Denver and traveled the world. He has used his observant eye to soak in inspiration. A graduate of the renowned USC School of Architecture and Jefferson University Sustainable Design masters program, he has a great understanding of the order and impact that architecture can have on a person, community and the world.

That frugality ensures the creation of efficient and appropriate designs that still have moments of WOW! With GDArch, he makes new from within. When not architecting, Gage can be found hiking, skiing, and traveling with his wife, Amy, and their 3 children.
