Who We Are:

Art Form Architecture, LLC is based in North Hampton, NH, founded by architect Wendy Welton. At Art Form Architecture, LLC, we specialize in creating thoughtfully designed homes and spaces tailored to your needs. We offer pre-designed home plans, fully custom designs and addition-renovations. Whether you’re building a single-family home, a two-family property, or a commercial space like a clubhouse or multi-family development, we bring innovative solutions to the table.

Our designs are a blend of tradition and modern innovation, often inspired by the unique charm of older homes with a contemporary twist. We’ve been ahead of the curve on trends like small houses, board and batten siding, and the back kitchen – all before they were mainstream. Our commitment to listening to the market while leading it has set us apart as pioneers in the industry.

For Our Home Owners:

At Art Form, we believe great design should be within everyone’s reach. Our unique business model makes it easy and affordable for you to bring your dream home to life. Whether you have a vision in mind or need a little guidance, we offer a variety of ways to collaborate and turn your ideas into reality.

For Our Builders & Developers:

No matter the scale of your project, Art Form is here to help. From small residential builds to large developments, we’re your partner in creating exceptional spaces. With our cutting-edge 3D software, you can take virtual tours of our designs, access MLS marketing materials, and even collaborate with clients to shape their perfect home. Let us help you find the ideal design—or create something entirely new.

If you don’t see the perfect design in our catalog, no problem! We can create a custom plan to fit your exact vision and property needs.

Mission:

At Art Form Architecture, we aim to make exceptional home design accessible to a broader audience than traditional architectural practices typically reach. Our mission includes:

  • Exceptional Home Design – Creating spaces that make homeowners truly feel proud to call their house “Home”.
  • Collaboration – We use tools such as 3D software and interactive design sessions to ensure you have a clear understanding of the design, allowing you to make well informed decisions.
  • Up to Date Drawings – Our plans are designed to be clear, up to date with the latest building codes, and tailored to meet local snow load requirements—an often overlooked detail in many online plans. With Art Form, you can proceed with construction confidently, without the additional hurdles that are often associated with E-Plans.
  • Affordable Pricing – Our services are priced to fit within your budget without compromising quality.
  • Timely Delivery – We work efficiently, often completing projects within weeks, or in the case of our fastest plans, even days. For Custom Designs that require extra attention, our project fulfillment remains competitive, and we provide real lead time estimates throughout the process.

We are committed to excellence in every project, regardless of the size. Our focus is on clear communication with everyone involved, exceptional collaborative design, and comprehensive construction documents.
