Great architecture, like our house, is kind and reassuring to its surroundings and its inhabitants. Unobtrusively, it just belongs there, just as it is. We've come to adopt our client, Frank Middleton's words as a guiding principle. At Herlong Architects our goal is to set ourselves apart through our pursuit of perfection in architecture and interior design, and the entire conduct of our business.
Services
Herlong Architects is a full-service architecture and interior design firm based in Charleston, SC, specializing in custom coastal home design. Each of our projects represents a design solution created for a specific site, often in the context of dramatic vistas and the comforting sanctuary of nature, that blends the seams between home and surroundings.
Whether you are building a new home or renovating an existing one, before we begin designing we take a thorough study of the site and all variables that could impact the design. We determine the sun path, wind patterns and views to find the best siting for the home and consider any existing conditions or requirements specific to your lot.
Interior architecture is so much more important than many understand it to be. As the key link between architecture and interior design, interior architecture plays a integral role in creating a well balanced home.
Be it a subtle detail of a concealed built-in or the curve of the ceiling that gives the feeling of sublime proportion, we work tirelessly during this phase to ensure that every square inch inside your home has been carefully considered for livability and functionality.With an infinite number of decisions in the building process, the Owner Selections service assists the client in coordinating product specifications and finishes.

We're a diverse group of architects and interior designers, each with unique talents and points of view that we bring to every project. We do share some things in common: a love for life by the water, for our families, and for the collaborative creative process that goes on every day in our own little design house by the ocean.
Artists all, our interior designers lighten rather than stifle the spaces our architects create, highlighting features rather than covering them up and working in concert with the architectural elements rather than against them.
In our experience, collaborating with your interior team from the early stages of design creates a seamless flow between the exterior and interior, a cohesiveness that leads to an organic invitation between the outdoor and indoor spaces and features.

Steve and his team have developed a reputation for designing a signature style when it comes to coastal homes. This reputation for excellence and elegance, along with our own firsthand experience in seeing the finished product, is what motivated us to contact him when we began the process of building our beachfront home. From walking the site, to understanding our needs, and the "bedside manner" they had in the many frequent touchpoints along the way, Steve and his team developed and delivered an amazing design that captured the unique characteristics of our site, and the eye of many a passerby

I was first introduced to Steve Herlong and his firm, Herlong and Associates, over 10 years ago. In that time we have worked together on a number of projects. Steve, Jim and the team of architects and designers they’ve assembled are excellent at what they do. Not only are they hugely talented but they are fun to work with and consummate professionals. They design beautiful homes and support them with detailed plans from which to build. If you are looking to build a high end home in Charleston, be sure you talk to Herlong and Associates.
