Discover How We Work

Together WE share hopes and dreams.

Sweebe Architecture was founded by architect Mike Sweebe, who discovered his love for design at an early age. After gaining experience at top firms, Mike renovated his own house in Montclair, New Jersey. He experienced first hand many of the challenges families go through in creating a home they will love. This experience inspired Mike to dedicate himself to helping clients transform their houses into happy homes that bring their family closer together.

Sweebeliefs...

As residential architects and interior designers, we work very closely with families over the lifecycle of their project. Over time, we have identified a set of core principles to guide our work. At Sweebe, we believe in...

Rhythm
Every family has its own beat and cadence, a family's pulse must be cherished and respected.

Story

The unique narratives and unearthed plots of each family can result in great design that expands possibilities and forges new beginnings.

Curiosity

Digging, diving, delving, discovering, and above all, listening, these are the greatest skills a designer can possess.

Partnership

Seeking opinions, forming connections, creating collaborations. The best ideas are often found on two-way streets.

Identity

Life is big. Living is small. Each space must have its own unique character while fulfilling the needs and wants of your family.

Nooks

A well-organized pantry, a comfy couch, a window with a perfect view—it's often the small details we cherish most.

Gathering

Spaces for families should be designed to encourage and make it easier to enjoy each other.

Home

A house is a structure, a home is a place where a family grows and thrives. We design great homes, not houses.

How we work together with you.

We work with you to understand the unique flow and rhythm of your family. Our thoughtful, meaningful approach to design starts with understanding the needs and challenges you want to solve, and ends with the surprising and unexpected joys of what your home can be.

Our Process

The path to your dream home starts here.

There is nothing more exciting and fun than exploring design possibilities. Unfortunately, starting with design can lead you on a twisting, winding roller coaster, that ends with a lot of wasted time and money because you can't get your dream permitted.


That's why we start with our Discovery Consultation. This is a structured process, routed in best practices, and designed to help you understand what you can do with your property so you can make sound decisions about how to move forward, or not.


Understand the realities, before exploring all the possibilities. Apply for your Discovery Consultation today!
