Welcome to AJO Architects
Thoughtful Design | Personalized Approach | Enduring Homes
At AJO Architects, we believe the best design excites, inspires, and enhances daily life. We blend timeless architecture with personalized details to create spaces that feel uniquely yours. Based in Denver and led by award-winning architect Alec Oshner, we design high-end custom homes that respond to your lifestyle, surroundings, and long-term vision. Whether building from the ground up or transforming an existing space, we bring innovation, creativity, and care to every step of the process.
Why work with us?
Collaborative Design Approach
You’re not just hiring an architect—you’re gaining a design partner. We work closely with you to understand your goals, priorities, and the way you live.
Context-Driven Solutions
Each design is shaped by its surroundings—natural light, views, site conditions, and community—resulting in homes that feel grounded and intentional.
Practical & Beautiful
From big-picture layout to fine material details, we balance function with simplicity to create spaces that age gracefully and feel distinctly yours.
Big Firm Experience, Small Firm Dedication
Unlike larger firms where projects are often passed down to staff members, at AJO you'll work directly with our Principal Architect from start to finish. This means your vision is never handed off, ensuring your project gets the attention it deserves.
What We Specialize In
We create custom homes that are fully tailored to your lifestyle, site, and vision. From first ideas to final plans, we guide you through a collaborative design process that results in a unique home built around you.
Whether you're expanding, reconfiguring, or adding a separate living space, we design thoughtful solutions that work seamlessly with your existing home. From pop-tops to ADUs, we help unlock your property's full potential.
We create multifamily designs that blends livability, smart design, and timeless appeal—tailored for apartments, condos, and mixed-use developments.
