Elliot H. Johnson, AIA specializes in residential design in Austin and the Hill Country and has been a leader in green building and a member of the COA Green Building Program since 1992.
We focus on tailoring each design to our client's lifestyle, rather than confining ourselves to a particular style. Over ninenteen years of residential experience equips us with expert knowledge of construction techniques, budgeting, sustainable building principles, and local building codes. We have spent the last three years becoming experts with the City of Austin's "Mcmansion ordinance."
