ABOUT US
 

Since 2018, we’ve been bringing ideas to life. From concept to construction approval, we create homes, restaurants, and retail environments that are functional, inspiring, and uniquely yours.

With over 1000 completed projects and a team boasting 80+ years of combined experience, we offer deep expertise in building permit applications and a thorough understanding of local codes. Our architectural licenses span multiple states, ensuring seamless compliance wherever your project takes shape.​

As one of the few firms in Chicago approved under the Self-Certified Architect Program, we fast-track permits and help you break ground sooner. We bring the same level of care and craftsmanship to luxury homes throughout Greater Los Angeles.

At Variation Design, every project is personal. 

We design with heart, build with precision—and always stand by your side.
