Lisa Jaffe, AIA, LEED AP, the founder and owner of the Chicago-based JAFFE ARCHITECTURE + INTERIORS, draws upon her appreciation of form and an understanding of architectural styles to create customized residential spaces that rise above the merely functional, transcend the aesthetic and merge into the realm of the poetic. Lisa's work is an artistic process that melds her intellectual, philosophical and conceptual views of architecture. Her astonishing home designs, which can also include enhancements to kitchens and bathrooms and original furniture, are practical, spiritual and technically sound and bear a sweeping elegance that softens the eye and warms the soul. Lisa is both consultative and collaborative in her approach. She is unabashedly passionate about working with clients who appreciate her artistry and the exquisite spaces she seeks to create for them. By keeping her client’s priorities clearly in focus, Lisa is free to unleash her expertise and arrive at alternatives that are truly customized and reflect the unique nature of the owner(s). Says Lisa, "With every house I design or renovate and also with every room, I ask myself, ‘what are we trying to achieve?’" Whether the work is new or modified, Lisa’s designs are transformational and stunning in their variety and scope. “My greatest joy is when my clients tell me, 'I love coming home,'" confirms Lisa. Lisa has achieved prominence in the Chicagoland residential architectural scene. Her work has been featured numerous times—most notably, in Dream Homes Chicago (showcasing Chicago's Finest Architects), Chicago Magazine, Trends Magazine, Northshore Magazine, Chicago Home and the Franklin Report. Lisa is expanding the perspectives of her firm to give new homeowners and young, growing families the benefit of her vast expertise. She seeks to strike a harmonic blend of the “boutique” elements in her home designs to those more in line with affordable, mainstream and, ultimately, green choices.Specialties: ● Custom Residential Architecture● Custom Home Renovations & Remodeling● Spatial Conceptualization & Schematic Design● Construction Administration● Project Management● Interior Design● GREEN Design● Communication Skills● Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
