ming | architecture and design was founded by Grace Huang in 2001 to specialize in sustainable and healthy home building practices. Our projects are located throughout the Puget Sound region and our work has been recognized by green building programs and publications. Our custom home projects range from small remodels to whole new houses. We think of ourselves as the owners' coach and guide in the building process, and approach the house as a tailor would a well-fitted garment - the house needs to look and feel great for those living in it.

Frank studied interior design at Bellevue College and became a LEED accredited professional. He now lives on Vashon Island and is a Lead Designer and Project Manager at reModerned Homes. Frank is passionate about intelligent, sustainable design and strives to incorporate these fundamentals into all his work.

Since 2002, Carlisle Classic Homes has been building good things. A lot of good things, actually. Over 1,200 beautiful homes and remodels.

Family owned and operated, we build high quality homes that we ourselves would be proud to live in. From a 10,000 sq. ft. mansion to a 1,100 sq. ft. bungalow, every project receives the same attention to detail, that is obvious in the workmanship throughout our homes.

We are Solar Experts. Our lead electrician, Briggs Nieman, is a NABCEP-certified solar installer and a professional electrician who grew up living off-grid. He has been installing solar, as a supervising electrician for over 12 years.
