Family-Friendly Austin Homes
Your home is the most important place! It’s where you spend a majority of your time, especially if you work from home. It serves as the backdrop for your family life, the day-to-day routines as well as the special occasions. That’s why I believe your home needs to be thoughtfully designed and tailored to you.
Your home has to functionally support the way you live and aesthetically reflect your personality and style. Whether you want to fully remodel, add-on, or build a new updated home in Austin, I can design a family-friendly contemporary home that you’ll love for years to come.
NEW HOME
Having trouble finding exactly what you’re looking for in a home? Tired of weird layouts, high utility bills, poor construction, and costly repairs!
You want a unique contemporary house
You want a stress-free experience
Start fresh, build a new home, customize everything. Live in a home that’s well-thought-out and well-built. You get one chance, get it right.
REMODEL-ADDITION
Do you live in an outdated home that doesn’t serve your needs, your family life, or day-to-day activities? Plus, it’s not your aesthetic style!
You need more space
You want better quality of space
I’ll help you transform it. Say goodbye to house-shame and prepare to love everything about your home, not just your location.

Testimonials
“Sharon was the architect for a mother-in-law suite that we put in for our 20 yr-old house. She did an excellent job with both the design itself and taking us through the steps involved. She has a good process in place to understand your needs and your vision of what you have in mind. She also has options on the services she provides so you can fit to your budget. She was very responsive to our queries and came up with excellent suggestions that enhanced the project. We highly recommend her.”

"We had the pleasure of working with Sharon George during the past year for an unplanned remodel necessitated by a major plumbing issue that caused structural damage. Before we hired Sharon, we were overwhelmed with several options to consider (from repairs to a full remodel involving all load-bearing walls). She mapped out a strategic plan and helped us turn this misfortune into an opportunity. We were pleased with Sharon's process, specifically, the way she articulated our thoughts into designs and creative plan options."
- Martha and Paul Egli
"Sharon George was the Project Architect and Project Manager for the design of our hill country home. Her attention to design detail was superb and her field reports were as good as I have seen on multi-billion dollar projects. However, the attribute my wife and I appreciated most were her listening skills. She listened intently and asked probing questions to ensure she understood our wishes. It was a pleasure working with Sharon on the design and construction of our home."
- Melinda and Mike Reiken
“An architect who understands how to design homes for families. We engaged with Sharon for an extensive remodel of our early 1980s built house. Her vision transformed our traditional and closed off house to an open, more usable/functional. home. We love our new home and our new layout. Our home is comfortable for our family's daily needs, but also ideal for larger gatherings and extended stay guests. Thank you, Sharon, for working with us, sharing your vision with us, and making our beautiful home possible.”
