Thoughtful homes, grounded in experience.

I am Matthew Brooke, an architect with 20 years of professional design experience—15 of those years spent working right here in the DMV region. I’ve built my career on supporting clients to navigate complex projects with clarity—whether I’m guiding large development teams through multifamily and commercial buildings or helping homeowners understand what’s truly possible on their own property.

After two decades in the profession, I launched Matthew Brooke Architecture, PLLC to focus on what I enjoy most: working directly with homeowners to design spaces that genuinely improve daily life. I bring with me the technical expertise, design rigor, and coordination skills developed through managing high‑stakes projects—and apply that same level of care to single‑family homes, additions, and custom rebuilds.

A balanced approach: creativity + practicality

My work blends creative design with a strong understanding of construction, zoning, and the practical realities of bringing a project to life. Over the years, I have learned how to guide clients through decisions clearly and thoughtfully—breaking down complex options into understandable, buildable paths forward.

Whether you’re thinking about reconfiguring your existing home, adding meaningful space, or starting fresh with a new build, my role is to help you compare paths, understand costs early, and move ahead with confidence.

Let’s create the home that fits your life

If you’re ready to explore what’s possible—whether you’re imagining an addition, a major renovation, or a brand‑new home on the lot you love—I’d be glad to help you find the path forward.
