CRAFT Architecture + Interiors

Through a collaborative design-build relationship with CRAFT Studio, PLLC, Tongue & Groove offers clients a streamlined approach to residential design and construction. Architectural services are provided by and contracted through CRAFT Studio, PLLC, a North Carolina licensed architecture firm, under the direction of Matt Petr. Construction services are provided separately through Tongue & Groove, allowing for close coordination between the design and construction teams throughout the lifecycle of each project.

A Unique Approach

With a team of three architects and two interior designers, CRAFT seamlessly integrates both disciplines to create cohesive, highly curated spaces. Our Architecture and Interior Design departments collaborate from the outset, ensuring that structural elements and aesthetic details align harmoniously. 

This unified approach allows us to consider every aspect of a project, from spatial planning to material selection, resulting in homes and commercial spaces that are both stunning and functional.

The Coast, Carefully Considered

In coastal North Carolina, architecture requires more than a strong point of view. It requires foresight, technical discipline, and a deep understanding of how homes perform over time.

We deliver a unified architectural and construction experience that protects both vision and investment. From new custom homes to sophisticated renovations, our integrated model reduces friction, improves decision-making, and gives homeowners one accountable team from concept through completion.

What to Expect

Vision
We learn your goals, priorities, aesthetic direction, and the architectural character you want your home to reflect.

Setting
Light, wind exposure, privacy, elevation, zoning, and property conditions all inform the design strategy from the start.

Design Development
Your vision becomes a coordinated, build-ready direction through thoughtful design development, detailed drawings, and documentation that supports a smooth building process.

Execution
With architecture and construction aligned from the beginning, your project benefits from strong coordination and clear communication.
