M.B. HEARN ARCHITECTURE, LLC opened its doors on January 1, 2000 – Y2K. We are a full service architectural firm at the Jersey Shore. Our personnel bring individual talents to the table with over 80 years of experience in both residential and commercial design. We believe good architecture requires teamwork – property owners committed to a dream, design professionals formulating and organizing ideas well, and builders putting in place construction means to bring about quality structures. Successful design starts with needs and desires – it is our job to transform these hopes into a working plan. Designing buildings requires knowledge of site criteria, structural integrity, mechanical systems, building products, but more importantly, good design requires listening well, understanding how the building will be used and finding, through discovery, possibilities not yet considered. We delight in the creative process – it is exciting to bring about surprise while planning spaces that house us, offer us views, allow us to bask in the sunlight, feel a cool breeze or protect us from harsh winds. Our “style” is eclectic – based in tradition, stretching toward extraordinary.
