Our 15-person firm is led by Gil Schafer III, AIA who has focused his career on residential projects for the last 20 years. We bring to each of our projects a unique understanding of a variety of architectural traditions and building contexts-regional, stylistic, and climatic-as well as landscape and interior decoration in order to help our clients develop homes and properties that are best suited to their lifestyles and the settings in which their projects are located. Over the last two decades G. P. Schafer Architect has worked on projects in numerous and varied locations around the country including New York, California, Connecticut, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Tennessee-and in scales ranging from under 1,000 square feet to nearly 40,000 square feet

Our approach to the design and detailing of each project is rigorous, as is the professionalism with which we manage the construction process and the myriad of complex elements and personnel that are part of creating a a new home today.
