Robert Dean Architects LLC

An architectural firm. Robert Dean Architects designs new-construction homes and adapts or restores older houses. Its work draws on historical and classical architectural traditions alongside modernist ideas. Design decisions consider each building's historical, physical, and environmental context, with attention to form and proportion in creating rooms and places. The firm's background includes architectural practice, design history, and direct management of construction work. Founded in 1986, the practice has worked on residential additions and modifications, as well as the restoration and enlargement of midcentury modern houses. Its projects include homes in New Canaan and other communities. The firm describes its approach as using stylistic themes with care rather than pursuing a signature style.
