A large number of Good Architecture's projects involves renovating and restoring historic properties in the downtown Annapolis and other Historic Districts in the state of Maryland.  When dealing with old houses, Good Architecture follows the guideline of the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and is primarily focused on keeping the historic character of the structure intact while modernizing the efficiency and livability of the home.  Whether dictated by historical committees or not, Good Architecture believes that the best way to renovate a historic property is to stay true to the genetics of the original home, while updating to floor plans, amenities and technology to bring the house into the 21st century.
