Since 2002, architect Jonathan Miller, RA, AIA, has been transforming dreams into spectacular homes through his firm, Miller Architecture & Design Studio, for clients in Tennessee and across the country. From traditional to contemporary, English cottage to French modern, farmhouse to mountain retreat, his ethos centers on creating artful, timeless homes tailored to each client.
Building the dream: Architect Jonathan Miller says you can’t have great architecture without great relationships.
“We are a uniquely Southern firm, and relationships are everything to us,” says Miller, owner, chief architect, and lead designer. “We love to get to know clients and how they live, then design grows from there. You can’t have great architecture without great relationships.”
A classically trained architect, he brings an exacting hand to his designs. He starts each with freehand pencil and paper sketches, perfecting the proportion, scale, and detail that define a beautifully crafted home, before moving on to digital renderings and 3D models. With a classicist’s eye, he hones his designs to not only manifest his clients’ dreams but also sit seamlessly within the environment.
“We want our homes to look like they’ve always been there,” Miller explains. “The goal is achieving a space that is unique yet feels timeless and familiar.”
For the team at Miller Architecture & Design Studio, light and views are central to their award-winning portfolio of stunning projects. What fuels Miller’s process, however, isn’t awards and accolades, but his signature passion for creating extraordinary homes his clients will love.
“Building a home is a hallmark moment in life, and it should be a delightful and joyful process,” he says. “We love being able to create that experience and happiness for our clients.”
