CENTER STUDIO

John Q. Doane, Architect, is located in northern Vermont, where we choose to work directly with the people of this beautiful region. Our core aesthetic is grounded in no presumed style, or form, but is created through a design process that draws from our cultural heritage and the unique site context presented with each project. We provide design and planning services for a variety of building types that extend beyond the residential with municipal, institutional and commercial work. Residential has always been a core part of the project load with single family homes comprising most of this residential work. These projects usually involve existing houses or structures, where we strive to utilize the physical assets as best possible, to realize solutions that inspire and provide the vital needs of home that a client seeks. Therefore, many of the projects profiled here show the evolution of the project from the original building & context, through the design drawings of the design process, to the end result of the built solution. Our office is a collaborative office called Center Studio, a physical home base that John Q Doane, Architect has shared with design colleagues Kristen L’Esperance of Cultivation Design, and Carl Frenning of Carl Frenning, Architecture, among others over the years. While Vermont is our core region. We understand the North, and have worked with other homes in Astoria, Oregon, Bellingham Washington, Minnesota, and on the Coast of Maine. Inquiries into our services are welcome by phone or e mail. I would be delighted to start a dialog with you.
