kepplerarchitecture pllc
is a design-oriented firm based in the picturesque hamlet of Sandy Hook, CT.
Donald Keppler and Kristina Geiger Keppler are the two principals
in charge of design. We are supported by a talented group of architects,
interior
designers, draftspersons and interns. In addition, we have cultivated
a consultant network of highly qualified landscape architects, and
structural engineers able to contribute their skills and expertise
as needed.
We enthusiastically strive to provide our clients with personal and creative
design solutions that merge functional requirements with spaces that captivate
and delight. Our focus on total design necessitates the thoughtful integration
of each project’s cultural context, surrounding landscape, architectural
form, building technology and the design of interior space. This comprehensive
approach ensures that projects are thoroughly designed according to the highest
level of quality possible.
The firm has demonstrated success on a variety of building types ranging from custom houses and apartment renovations to medium-sized commercial and sports facility design.
The connective thread common to all our work is highly creative, intensive design
service. Our commitment is to provide the best overall design solution for each
particular site, lifestyle, and budget.
