Atelier Akari is a custom residential architecture firm specializing in sustainable design and construction. In conjunction with our consultants we practice an integrated design approach to create homes with long-term environmental and financial benefits for our clients. Atelier Akari believes in the practice of certifying our homes and use the following green rating programs: LEED for Homes and Florida Green Building Coalition (FGBC). By certifying and documenting the reduced material use, waste stream and energy consumption in addition to reduced operational costs our clients gain at least 35 percent towards the market value of their home. We create interiors that are user-focused and functional. Our homes are designed around technology, multifunctional furniture/rooms and how they both can be easily adapted for use in the future. We help clients to imagine what their home would look like if designed around how they behaved by editing their life and maximizing the space that they actually use.
