We’re passionate about enriching lives through the thoughtful design of modern, residential spaces.
Unfold Architecture is a Minneapolis, Minnesota–based residential architecture studio designing custom homes across the United States and Canada.
We approach each project as a design experience shaped by the way our clients live and the unique qualities of each site. We believe the best homes are deeply personal. Places to unwind and connect. Spaces for both stillness and play.
We combine our responsibility to our client’s vision with our responsibility to be good stewards of the earth; incorporating sustainable building practices along the way. This, along with our use of the latest technology, results in an engaging design process and a highly accurate product.
Our team is tech-forward and agile. We obsess over materials and leverage light and landscape to create emotion. We take pride in our collaborative approach, working closely with clients and project partners like builders, interior designers, and craftspeople to design each home in response to both the client’s aspirations and the context of the site.

With a love of both built and natural environments, Mike brings a refined balance of indoor and outdoor connection to his work.
After earning his Bachelor of Architecture degree from Iowa State, Mike worked for a number of years in healthcare, higher education and corporate architecture sectors.
With a keen eye for technical details, Mike can focus on what really makes a home stand out — thoughtful use of light, lines and form. The little things that make the biggest statements.
Mike can be reached directly at mike@unfoldarchitecture.com - If he’s out of the office, he’s likely on a trail somewhere taking in the view.

Since childhood, Greg has been inspired to create and bring something new into the world. It’s this passion that brought him to Iowa State where he earned his Bachelor of Architecture degree— and where he’d meet his future business partner, Mike.
Following graduation, Greg joined an award winning residential architecture firm in California — working on mountain homes throughout the Lake Tahoe region. He brought this experience and love for residential architecture with him as he made his way back to the Midwest over the next few years.
Greg believes a home’s design should react to each individual’s unique lifestyle, elevate even the most mundane of spaces and celebrate the life being lived within it.
Greg can be reached directly at greg@unfoldarchitecture.com - If he’s out of the office, you’ll most likely find him restaurant hopping with his wife, Lauren.

As a teenager, Jack spent many summers helping to renovate and expand his family’s northern Minnesota cabin. The process of designing spaces for groups to gather and connect with the outdoors is what drew him to pursue a career in architecture.
After achieving a Bachelors and Master of Architecture degree from North Dakota State University, Jack began his professional career with a large firm in St. Paul Minnesota. Here, he gained exposure to the intricacies of large-scale commercial projects.
While this experience proved invaluable, his heart was always back at the family cabin. He joined the Unfold team to help create functional and biophilic spaces for families like his.
Jack can be reached directly at jack@unfoldarchitecture.com – If he’s out of the office, you can likely find him on a golf course or (you guessed it) at the cabin.

David dreamed of designing homes from an early age. He grew up rearranging his bedroom every few weeks, sketching floor plans in his notebook, and doing projects around the house.
After earning both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Architecture from North Dakota State University, he kicked off his career at a large multi-family commercial firm. There, David honed his skills in large-scale projects while diving deep into the finer details of spatial relationships and scale —from cozy studios to grand penthouses.
Having also worked for a custom design-build company, David brings a balanced perspective, blending design, technical expertise, and a solid understanding of builder and subcontractor relationships.
David can be reached directly at david@unfoldarchitecture.com - If he’s out of the office, you can likely find him running or biking the Minneapolis trails, canoeing the Boundary Waters, or renovating his 1920’s Minneapolis home.
Unfold Architecture's process is personal and intentional - each step moving us closer to shaping a truly intimate and unique home.
