Seattle architects specializing in new homes, remodels, multifamily, small commercial projects, and shoreline permitting work. Ecco! (Italian) "This is it!" "Lo! And behold!" "Ah ha!" Troy Hussing and Chip Kouba worked together for seven years before forming ecco design inc in 2000 as a small firm specializing in residential and shoreline architecture. Ours is a service-based firm with the conviction that quality personal service to our clients is the surest path to success on any project. As our name implies we believe that discovery is a key component of architectural service: discovering both the goals of our clients and the built form inspired by those goals. These “ecco” moments are what invigorate the project team and result in successful projects. Why hire an architect? ecco will work with you through the complicated but exciting process of designing and building your home. We provide inspiration, guidance, oversight, and an efficient plan for working through this process. Our goal is to help put your dreams on paper and then assist you through the building process to have your dream home built in an efficient, cost effective manner. We believe this should be a fun & inspiring process for all.
