Design that meets you where you are

Turkel Design homes are designed for your life, wherever you want to live. We analyze your land, and through a series of conversations and surveys, we come to understand the lifestyle you are seeking. We then create a home just for you and your unique site. 

A natively digital practice

Working at a distance with our clients (and their sites) has been integral to our practice model since Turkel Design was founded in 2008. With the goal of leveraging a systematized process to design and deliver high-quality modern architecture to clients anywhere, we have refined an approach that provides our clients with the flexibility to be wherever they would like to be regardless of the location of their future home. As a result, our team has nearly two decades of experience developing a process that is natively digital. 

“In terms of operating with people in different places, Turkel Design was way ahead of the curve,” says Bob, a client in Colorado with significant experience in residential and retail design. “The skill set of being able to communicate and feel like we were all together in a room was really well executed.” 

Clients appreciate not only the convenience of our remote, digital design process, but also the predictability. We use advanced visualization tools that allow homeowners to make informed decisions at every step.  

“I had never heard of Zoom,” says Don, a client in Ontario, who began work with us in 2018. “And Turkel had us on Zoom conversations regularly. And, the computer program that could show us so realistically in three dimensions what this home was going to look like—what each room and detail were going to look like—was so perfect for us. We were able to visualize what we were going to end up with.” 

Predictable accuracy

Those visualization tools have only grown more accurate and sophisticated with each passing year. They allow the homeowner to not only see, but virtually walk through and explore, the spaces of their future home without leaving their current home. With these tools, the homeowner is better equipped to weigh in on design choices, from the program to material finishes and fixtures. Best of all, the completed home accurately reflects the expectations that were set during the design process.

“I worked with Turkel Design on three projects, which were entirely designed and facilitated remotely using online tools and screen-share meetings, making the design process smooth and accessible from wherever I happened to be,” says Brenden, a client in New York. “I appreciated their systems approach, and how they pushed the boundaries of the systems to create inspiring spaces.”
