Our Story

How the studio came to classical architecture

  • 2019
    Founded

    Ashlar opened as a small studio focused on residential architecture.

  • 2020
    Expanding capabilities

    We added construction to our services so we could control how each detail is built on site.

  • 2021
    Growing portfolio

    We completed our first houses with stone facades and arched openings.

  • 2022
    Classical direction

    We made classic transitional design our focus, drawing on French Country and Mediterranean houses.

  • 2023
    Commercial projects

    We began applying the same classical language to offices and retail buildings.

  • 2024
    Scaling the Studio

    The team grew, and we started drawing moldings, stonework and ironwork in house.

  • 2025
    Integrated approach

    Design, interiors and construction now run as one process, with the same team from concept to handover.

  • 2026
    Building forward

    We keep designing homes with classical roots for the way people live today.

One design language from facade to interior

Stonework, joinery and ironwork coordinated by one team.

Schedules planned around material lead times

We design and build classic transitional homes. That covers architecture, interiors, landscape, planning and construction, up to the day we hand over the keys.

Yes. The team that draws the cornices and arches also supervises how they are built, so the details on site match the drawings.

It depends on size and scope. Most homes take 4 to 12 months from planning to completion, and natural stone or custom ironwork can lengthen the schedule.

Yes. We start from your routine and your site, then decide how much ornament the house needs. Some clients want a full French Country facade, while others prefer a few classical elements on a simpler volume.

We approve stone and finish samples with you before ordering, draw moldings and window surrounds at full scale, and supervise the site at every stage.
