🏪 Customer Spotlight: Noah’s Ark Kebab & Gyro – Newark, DE

Another local restaurant brought to life with the help of Drafting By Design!

Watch how Drafting By Design guides clients through every step of the architectural design process and see how a vision turns into reality.

Brilliant blueprints bring dream homes to life. 📐

We are looking back at one of our favorite custom architectural projects from 2023. This smart two-level design balances open-concept daily living on the main floor with private, comfortable retreats upstairs.

Every square foot of this layout was engineered for maximum function, featuring a dedicated laundry hub, a spacious deck, and exceptional flow.

Whether you want a modern multi-story home or a cozy cottage layout, we can turn your ideas into a structural reality.

Let's start drafting your dream space today.

Us☀️ Happy Flag Day!

Five years ago, what began as a Flag Day celebration (and a surprise baby shower for one of our team members!) turned into an annual Drafting By Design tradition. Today, it has evolved into our Summer Picnic—a day dedicated to bringing together our team, friends, and families.

This year's event featured great food, plenty of laughs, and our annual tie-dye competition. Even with the summer heat, everyone had a fantastic time.

We are thankful for the people who make Drafting By Design such a special place to work and grow. Here's to another year of teamwork, creativity, and tradition.

✨ Bold lines, custom design, and single-floor perfection. ✨

Throwing it back to this completely custom single-story masterpiece. From the striking dark siding and crisp white trim to the seamless indoor-outdoor flow, every single angle of this layout was designed with purpose.

Turning unique personal visions into structural reality is what we do best.

☕ Customer Spotlight: Rise & Grind – Elkton, MD

What used to be a bank… is now one of Elkton’s go-to coffee spots.

We worked with Rise & Grind to transform a former PNC building into a modern, welcoming café — taking it from financial transactions to daily connections.

From documenting existing conditions to developing the full commercial layout, this project shows how the right design can completely reimagine a space.

👉 Same building. Completely different experience.

If you’re looking at an existing building and wondering “what could this become?” — that’s where we come in.
