Our little firm was founded in 1992 by Julia Caswell Daitch, and since that time it has completed many projects in the mid-Atlantic region. In 1995 the National Association of the Remodeling Industry awarded us best renovation-specialty remodeling for the Southeast USA. Since that time we have been published in the Washington Post, Better Homes and Gardens, and Fine Homebuilding.
Throughout the years a mantra has developed within our design style; to create personal sanctuaries as an expression of self. At Caswell Daitch Architects we believe that Architecture is much more than building. As Frank Lloyd Wright once said "I believe a house is more a home by being a work of art." It is this artful shaping of space, not merely the materialization of a structure, that we pride ourselves in.
We believe that good architecture has the potential to lighten our environment and better our lives. Our attention to detail allows us to create homes that are both personal sanctuaries and a reflection of the client upon the world.

What is the most powerful building in your life?
My guess is that it's not the office building where you work, or the mall, or the supermarket, but I guess that it might be your home or your house of worship.
These are two building types that make you feel comfortable and protected in a sometimes harsh world.
In addition, your home is your face on the world.
It tells people who you are.
It sometimes tells you, who you are.
And it may tell you who you want to be.
We, as architects, really have the opportunity to make lives better, because of this powerful art of shaping space.

Julia Caswell Daitch designed and built her getaway dream home on top of the Blue Ridge Mountain near Harper's Ferry, WV.
The house was published in the Washington Post Home Section and the Annual Houses edition of Fine Homebuilding, as well as appearing in an episode of HGTV's "Dreambuilders."
The house has breathtaking views of the Shenandoah River and Valley.
Since creating her dream home (on a very tight budget) in 1999, she has become a kind of missionary and coach for others to create their getaway dream homes.
