Christian Dean Architecture is a full service creative practice based in Minneapolis working across many project types. We operate on the recognition that each client, site and context are unique, and we strive to discover the distinctness of each project.
Good design asks questions and is informed by a host of local influences, but first and foremost is guided by a client's particular sensibility. We believe good design discovers something particular about our experience of a place and that it leaves behind traces of the questions that were asked along the way.
