The Plum Studio, Ltd.

In early 2020, Helene expanded the concept and reach of her architectural firm by moving toward a design + build approach, concentrated within her favored mountain settings of Virginia’s Roanoke and Shenandoah Valleys. Founded on her previous private practice ownership launched in 1989 as well as her prior construction experience, Helene enriches the daily lives of her clients through targeted, curated place/space making, with a dedication to remodeling projects and home additions.

Services

With almost forty years of residential and commercial design experience and scores of highly satisfied clients, The Plum Studio provides the full spectrum of architectural services. Specializing in residential remodeling and additions, the firm also has expertise in small commercial projects, religious facilities, interiors, and real estate staging.

Helene is masterful at creative and cost effective design solutions to home challenges. She advised us with a potential purchase and came up with a genius solution that amazed all of us, including the realtor. Now she is helping us turn our small house into a much more functional space, with an abundance of creativity while respecting budget and space limitations. In addition, Helene brings her characteristic calm, clear-headed approach that is a true asset to complex jobs. We consider ourselves lucky to have Helene on the case!
