Nathan L.

Licensed Architect (MI, OH) | Residential, Commercial & Educational

Licensed Architect (Michigan & Ohio) providing architectural design, construction documentation, permitting support, and project coordination for residential, commercial, and educational projects. I help homeowners, developers, contractors, and fellow design professionals move projects from initial concept through permitting and construction. Whether you are planning a renovation, addition, new building, tenant improvement, feasibility study, or development opportunity, I provide practical architectural solutions grounded in real-world project experience. My background includes custom residential projects, multifamily housing, commercial renovations, educational facilities, municipal work, and public-sector projects. I have supported projects through feasibility studies, zoning review, schematic design, design development, construction documents, permitting, bidding, and construction administration. Services Include: • Architectural Design & Planning • Residential Additions & Renovations • Custom Homes & Multifamily Housing • Commercial & Tenant Improvement Projects • Educational & Institutional Facilities • Feasibility Studies & Development Analysis • Zoning & Building Code Review • Construction Documents • Permit Drawing Packages • Existing Conditions Documentation • Revit BIM Modeling • Consultant Coordination • Architectural Detailing • Construction Administration Support Unlike many freelancers who focus exclusively on drafting or visualization, I actively work on residential, commercial, educational, and public-sector projects and understand the realities of permitting, consultant coordination, contractor communication, budget constraints, field conditions, and project delivery. Professional experience includes leadership and project support roles with architecture and multidisciplinary design firms, including work on K-12 educational facilities, municipal projects, commercial developments, residential renovations, and private development projects. Typical Clients: • Homeowners planning renovations, additions, and custom homes • Contractors seeking permit and construction documentation support • Developers evaluating project feasibility and zoning opportunities • Business owners planning tenant improvements and facility upgrades • Architects seeking production, documentation, and project support If you're looking for a licensed architect who can contribute at any stage of a project—from early planning and feasibility through construction documentation, permitting, and construction support—I would be happy to discuss your project.
