Additions & Expansions
Architecture that grows with you, thoughtful, seamless, and beautifully connected.
At DK Studio, we design home additions that feel as though they have always belonged. As architects for home additions, we specialize in creating expansions that integrate seamlessly with your existing home. Each design balances proportion, flow, and light so that old and new live in harmony.
Whether you are adding space for a growing family, creating a guest suite, or expanding for everyday comfort, our team of Austin residential architects approaches each project with sensitivity and purpose.
Your home should evolve gracefully. We are here to make that transition feel effortless.
Home Additions with DK Studio
Every addition begins with understanding how you live and how your home can adapt to support that.
Each addition is a conversation between what exists and what is possible. As Texas residential architects, our goal is to make the expansion feel invisible, cohesive, and complete.
As experienced residential architects, we design expansions that bring beauty and intention to every square foot while preserving the architectural integrity of the original structure.
Our design focus:
Connection: Aligning new spaces with the home’s existing architecture.
Proportion: Creating scale that feels natural and balanced.
Light: Introducing windows, skylights, and openings that unify the design.
Continuity: Using materials that bridge old and new gracefully.
