Refine Design Architecture is the residential design firm serving Suncadia and the broader Kittitas County region with licensed, full-service architectural expertise. Suncadia is one of Washington State's most celebrated mountain communities—a place where homes are set among ponderosa pines, where the Cascades define the horizon, and where the built environment is held to a genuinely high standard. Designing well in this landscape takes more than aesthetic instinct; it requires deep familiarity with mountain climate, community design guidelines, county permitting, and the structural realities of building in a four-season alpine setting. That is exactly what Refine Design Architecture brings to every project.
Our residential design firm process begins long before the first drawing. We start by listening—understanding how you and your family want to live in Suncadia, what the site offers, and what constraints exist. We then move through schematic design, design development, permitting, and construction documentation in a collaborative, transparent process that keeps you informed and engaged at every stage. Our principals, Stone Faison and Julia Atkins, bring hands-on attention to each project, supported by a team of skilled architects and designers who care deeply about getting the details right.
Whether you are building a custom primary residence, a vacation retreat, or an addition to an existing Suncadia home, Refine Design Architecture has the experience, licensure, and passion to guide your project from vision to reality. We design homes that honor their place in this extraordinary landscape and serve the people who live in them for generations to come.
