As architects and principal designers, we will be with you every step of the way, with personal guidance and years of experience.

A good architect is an approachable partner
Arctila is the best architectural firm for the dreamers of their own home, the dreamers of their dreams. For you who know exactly what you want – but also for you who don’t know where to start.
We create wholes out of the thoughts in our minds. We’ll turn fuzzy ideas and questions into plans to get you moving. Once dreams, needs and possibilities have been matched, we implement the sketch plans. After the sketch design, we draw the main drawings, i.e. the more detailed framework for the building permit application and finally the precise scales. We will make sure that the plans are implemented as they were formulated together with you.
Arctila is a partner whose main task is to make sure that the most important project of your life is in good hands.
Architectural design is a balance of dreams, needs and possibilities
Architectural design is a passion for us. It is a compromise of many perspectives, desires, provisions and possibilities.
Art, functionality and life. Laws and guidelines, puzzles and solutions.
We believe that, especially when designing for our personal clients, one of our most important tasks is to listen to your needs and desires – so that the end result inspires the same compelling enthusiasm in you that architectural design inspires in us.
Our aim is to provide a tailor-made package that fits your unique dreams. Achieve a result that is perfectly designed to meet your needs and wishes.
We treat each client as a unique individual. So take a deep breath and come as you are. We are listening.
We know that the many laws and intricacies of construction can be a headache. Taking care of them is our expertise, so you can be confident that the design is in good hands. As lead designers, our job is to advise, guide, explain and solve – we’ll stay by your side throughout your project.
It’s important to us that the way you work with us is relaxed, genuine and full of life. We do our utmost to be approachable, because only through genuine dialogue can we reach what your life is like. By understanding your personality and your dreams, we arrive at a result that inspires pride, love and overwhelming joy.

Architect's services and price
Did you know that many of the most important decisions about the final outcome are made at the very beginning of the design process?
According to various sources, planning is estimated to account for around 10% of the total cost of your project. The architectural design and the main design together account for around 3-5% of this.
These are the most important percentages of your dream, so choose your partners carefully. The price of an architect is an investment that determines the final shape of your dream.

– We value clarity and try to structure all our projects in a coherent way. This will help both our own work and the progress of the project.
>> We give you clear and unambiguous guidelines for each project, so you can see the big picture.

– Environmental issues and climate change mitigation are an important part of Arctila’s planning and operations. Thinking sustainably and valuing nature is a pathway to a more sustainable building stock and a future that we are honoured to design. Nature is a source of inspiration and a promoter of well-being.
>> We give you perspectives on choices that support biodiversity conservation.
– The quality of buildings plays a big role in our well-being. That’s why we want to make the link between the built environment and well-being a special focus of our own architectural design.
