Macht Architecture, originally founded in 1990, provides architectural design services to clients seeking sustainable, energy-efficient, healthy homes.

Kyle joined Paul in 2015 and brings expertise in building science, construction technology, construction management, and residential design. Our passion and commitment to sustainable design are aligned with the founding purpose of the practice.

Our goal with each new residence, renovation, or addition is to translate the client’s dreams and needs into a design and structure that creates an enhanced and sustainable relationship to the landscape and in the case of an addition, to the existing structure.

Passive solar design and a tight, well-insulated envelope help inform the design and construction detailing using sustainable, healthy, and durable natural materials. High-performance mechanical systems for enhanced indoor air quality and energy efficiency are incorporated into our homes. These objectives meet the overarching goals of health and environmental sensitivity with a lower carbon footprint.
