Ken Peterman

At Ken Peterman Architect, we are dedicated to creating exceptional custom buildings that are tailored to their surroundings and personalized to suit the individuals who inhabit them. With over thirty years of experience in solo practice, our licensed architect, Ken Peterman, has honed his skills in designing private homes that not only reflect the beauty of their natural environment but also incorporate the character and craft of indigenous buildings.

Our approach to architecture is centered around the concept of immediacy, where good architecture is achieved only when it is well adapted to the reality of local conditions. We believe that the design process should be a collaborative effort between the architect, the client, and the setting. This is why we work closely with our clients to understand their functional, budgetary, and aesthetic priorities, ensuring that their personalities find expression in the final design solution.
