Refine Design Architecture is a licensed Washington State residential architecture firm serving Cle Elum and the greater Kittitas County region. As local architects with experience across Washington's diverse landscapes, we bring a nuanced understanding of what it means to build well in Cle Elum—where the Cascade foothills meet high desert plateau, where winters are cold and long, and where the surrounding wilderness shapes how people want to live. Our team specializes in custom home design, home additions, renovations, feasibility studies, energy-efficient design, and full construction documentation. We guide clients from the very first conversation through the final nail, providing the kind of hands-on, personalized service that larger firms simply can't offer. In Cle Elum, great residential architecture means more than attractive aesthetics—it means homes designed to perform in a mountain climate, respond to challenging topography, and satisfy the requirements of local permitting authorities. Whether you're envisioning a modern mountain retreat, a thoughtful renovation of an existing home, or a multigenerational family compound, our local architects have the expertise to make it a reality. Led by Principal Architects Stone Faison and Julia Atkins, Refine Design Architecture is built on a foundation of quality, collaboration, and genuine care for the communities we serve. We'd love to be your starting point for everything your Cle Elum home can become.
