Top 50 Traditional Architects in the World
Ocean Home | Top 50 Coastal Architects
Founded in 1988, Andreozzi Architecture specializes in historically based residential architecture expressive of its sense of place, attentive to its detail and proportion, and timeless in its beauty. A regional architecture: historically mastered, meticulously preserved, respectfully honored, and artistically reinterpreted. Commissions exist from Commonwealth Avenue, to the shores of New England, to the Bahamian Islands.
We are a unique team of design-oriented architects driven by a passion for creating elegant architectural solutions that address our client's needs and desires in ways that are innovative, respectful of tradition and craft, yet respective of budget. The size of a project or cost per square foot is irrelevant in our quest to produce successful projects and happy clients.
Everyone at Andreozzi Architecture works in small groups in direct partnership with David Andreozzi throughout all phases of the architectural process. David’s hand is part of every aspect of every project from the overall proportions of the facades to the details of the moldings on the mantles. As a team, our goal is to organize and simplify the various aspects of the design and construction administration, coordinate the various consultants and ensure that the final project exceeds all of our client’s desires. In the end, our projects read as one unified whole from the setting of the landscape to the form and space of the architecture to the details and touches of the decorating. The success of our approach can be seen both in the history of repeat clients and in the awards, magazines publications, books and television features our body of work has accumulated over the years.
David Andreozzi is the recent past President of the New England Institute of Classical Architecture and Art (NE ICAA), a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the classical tradition in architecture, urbanism and their allied arts. It does so through education, publication, and advocacy. David is currently spearheading a new movement Architectural Delight hoping to educate the public on the importance of culturally responsible design with a connectivity to people, history, and place irrespective of style. Before this David was AIA’s National Chair of CRAN, the AIA’s Custom Residential Architects Network. In addition to that role of leadership, David personally spearheaded CRANtv, an internet based series of viral videos that educate the public on the importance of good design and the role of the Architect, which received national accolades.
David Andreozzi, a graduate of Rhode Island School of Design, is the son of a second-generation contractor and an interior decorator. David grew up working on construction sites learning all aspects of construction from artisans. During this time David mastered framing, fine carpentry, drafting, bidding and running complex jobs. At RISD David received a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Bachelor of Architecture, with an additional concentration in woodworking from RISD’s Furniture Design program. David continued with his practical education at Shope Reno Wharton in Greenwich, CT in the mid-eighties, one of the leading shingle style architectural firms in the country. From pencil to hammer, David is expertly experienced in residential construction first and architecture second.
