Since our founding in 1986, AOME has been a premier custom residential architecture firm in Seattle, Washington, driven by a passion for creating homes that inspire. Originally named for our founders—Anderson, Olason, Marsh, and Elster—we’ve embraced a bold new chapter.
AOME now stands for Aesthetics, Originality, Modernity, and Elegance, reflecting our commitment to crafting bespoke residences that blend timeless beauty with innovative design. Led by Mark Elster, a University of Washington architecture graduate, our firm continues its 40-year legacy of excellence, fueled by the joy of our satisfied clients and our vision for the future.
Why This Matters For You
Our rebranding aligns our name with our purpose: to design homes that are as unique as you are. Every project embodies Aesthetics (stunning, personalized beauty), Originality (tailored to your story), Modernity (future-ready with sustainable practices), and Elegance (timeless sophistication).
