Maru-Arch is a residential architecture firm proudly serving Fort Wayne, and all surrounding areas in Northeast Indiana from our Huntington office. Maru-Arch was founded on the core principle of making high quality architecture as accessible, and available as possible. We all are surrounded by architecture for the majority of every day. Whether we acknowledge it or not, architecture constantly has an effect on our behavior, mood, and sensibility. We thrive to help our clients get the most out of their homes to provide the greatest experience we can achieve through design. Using original educational content as a tool we strive to help our clients understand when our services can be most effectively utilized, and how much of an impact good design can make when reimagining space. Getting the right information to make educated decisions about home remodels, or new construction is critical to the success of a project. At Maru-Arch we firmly believe that a house is only home once it has had the personal touch of those who live in it. This may be as small of a gesture as hanging pictures on the wall, or as large of a revision as adding on a second story. Whatever it may be that a client wants to do to make home their own, we are happy to help in whatever capacity is appropriate for your project and budget.

"Ben came to help us plan a home addition. He was amazing to work with and clearly explained what his role would be as well as what steps we would complete. He contacted our county authorities to confirm that we would be able to do an addition. Sadly we met with complications that prevent us from doing the addition at the moment (our septic is undersized and in the way) but will definitely use Ben once we are ready to take the leap!"

Since 1999, Kelty Tappy Design, Inc. has emerged as a very reliable firm, consistently producing designs and construction documents for more than $20,000,000.00 in construction in each of the last five years. From health care to education to creative adaptive re-use of existing buildings, Kelty Tappy Design, Inc. provides lightning fast professional response with precision design. Architecture has changed dramatically in the past 20 years. The industry is four generations beyond the traditional blueprint: today’s construction documents can be modified before noon and fully bound sets can be in the hands of contractors after lunch. While this dynamic is great, in some quarters the speed of work has eroded the philosophy of service. Architects once shouldered their responsibility to serve their clients with vigor. Architects who serve well listen well; they explore every opportunity for savings; they squeeze every ounce of use out of every square foot; they advise clearly. Kelty Tappy Design, Inc. assumes the mantle of the client, seeing your concern as our concern, and we take the time to resolve every issue and answer every question. "Servant-architecture requires a servant’s heart."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Architects often oversee project management to ensure design adherence, coordinate with contractors, and address onsite challenges.

Yes, integrating sustainable practices and energy efficiency into plans is common.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.

With proper training and experience, reading blueprints is fairly straightforward and not very difficult. If you don’t have the necessary knowledge to interpret the symbols, abbreviations, and other notations used, blueprints may not make sense. Learning to read blueprints can help you understand the construction process and keep you more involved and informed when you’re building a house.

When you think about Arts and Crafts-style homes, you probably think of a Craftsman house or a bungalow-style Craftsman. Craftsman is one of the major styles developed during the Arts and Crafts movement, but it checks most boxes. Craftsman houses have low-pitched roofs, exposed rafters, open floor plans, and stunning wood finish.
