OUR WORK
JMAA designs projects throughout the metro region. From modern designs to rich classics, the same excellence and attention to detail is paramount. Our process starts by listening to our clients’ needs and wishes. It quickly proceeds to a design charette, developing ideas and sketching directions in the initial meeting. With our design talent, knowledge of market trends and our construction know-how, we can bring all our clients through the process quickly and efficiently to bring their wishes and dreams to life. Piney Run: This home was built on a wooded lot in Great Falls. It has an open floor plan with floor to ceiling windows, illuminating the interior spaces. Wood accents, a floating staircase and a three-story drip waterfall highlight some of the unique features in this home. McLean Custom Home: This custom home was designed with a mixture of stucco stone and wood accents, providing a warm contemporary feel. Clean lines and large windows fill the interior full of openness and light.
