Frequently Asked Questions

What does Perspectiva Architects design?

Perspectiva Architects is a bilingual Atlanta architecture firm that designs custom homes, home additions and second-story additions, ADUs and guest houses, renovations, commercial spaces (restaurants, bars, retail, offices and multifamily) and adaptive reuse of older buildings.

What areas do you serve?

We work across metro Atlanta, including intown neighborhoods, Decatur, Marietta, Douglasville, and Gwinnett, Forsyth and Cherokee counties, plus second-home projects around Lake Oconee and the North Georgia mountains. See areas we serve.

What is AI-integrated BIM, and how does it help me?

Our BIM (building information model) is fully integrated with AI. You see your project in 3D before it is built, plans are more accurate, drawings move faster, and conflicts are caught on screen instead of on site. Learn more.

Can you handle permits?

Yes. We handle code review, zoning and change-of-use research, site plans and city submittals, and respond to reviewer comments until the permit is issued.

Do you design home additions and second stories?

Yes. We model your existing house first, then design the addition around it. Casa de la Hoz is a second-floor addition in Grant Park. See home additions.

Do you design ADUs and guest houses?

Yes. Casa de Sol is a two-volume Atlanta ADU built around a courtyard, and Miriam is a compact tiny home for a guest house or retreat. See ADUs and guest houses.

Do you work on commercial projects and adaptive reuse?

Yes. We design restaurants, bars, retail, offices and multifamily, and we convert older buildings into new businesses and homes. See commercial architecture and adaptive reuse.

¿Hablan español?

Do you help during construction?

Yes. We make site visits, answer contractor questions, review submittals and update drawings through move-in or opening day.
