Welcome to Acadia Architecture
We are an interactive and collaborative design atelier. The focus of our work is mainly sustainable high-end residential, interior design and light commercial projects.
The connection between all things is the driving force behind the art of building. It does not seek to impose a style, an artificial and temporary agreeable set of relations, onto a site. The most natural outcome happens when this development is allowed to take place almost by itself. We understand the need for it to relate gently with its surrounding, to instill a dialog with the adjacent buildings, with the people nearby and the people who will traverse it daily.

About Us
Our Philosophy
"I believe the purpose of our work is not to design boxes, containers for mundane actions, but rather stages for different emotions. This connection between all things, I believe, is the driving force behind the art of building that does not seek to impose a style, an artificial and temporary agreeable set of relations, onto a site". read more ...

We would highly recommend Davide and we have been extremely pleased with the outcome of our remodeling project. His attention to detail and the ability to incorporate your lifestyle into the design of your home is brilliant. Our house was a traditional house built on a hill slope and had a lot of complicated angles. Davide took up the remodeling as a challenge and transformed our home into a modern house with a lot of nuanced contemporary aesthetics.

We are so grateful to work with Davide, he spent a lot of time listening to our wishes and incorporated his professional ideas into our dream home. The design came beyond what we expected, we cannot Thank You Davide enough for his works! Additionally, he always gives us support throughout the building process, we had to go two contractors (one left in a middle) but his professional advice is right on top giving directions to deal with all complications during building!

I have collaborated with Davide on several projects over the last four years (he hired me as a photographer). I saw him consistently delivering to his clients beautiful, modern, thoughtful, and functional designs. I have always enjoyed working with him personally and frequently heard good things spoken about him by his clients and other industry professionals. Commonly recurring praises are about how kind, professional, and reliable he is.

Davide remodeled our house. It was a small remodel comparatively. However, it was quite a challenge to give a facelift to the house. Davide came out creatively. The whole house entry feels very grand and gives an illusion that it is very massive, that part I love it. Also, the lighting to the house makes it very bright. On top of that, the exterior was given a facelift that makes the house as completely new. During the process, Davide helped in many phases like clarification on any design, helping with interiors, giving suggestions on the materials.

Davide Gianella is wonderful. He is thoughtful and helpful, always full of ideas, and a great listener. He takes your wishes and desires, combines with possible and impossible, and makes the dream come true.
