Red Iron Architects

Red Iron is a welcoming group of people. Our firm culture fosters a creative environment, full of collaboration and even a little fun. We build architecture, but we also build relationships. Most of our staff are licensed, and we pride ourselves in providing this professional service. We are active in our profession and also in our community. As a certified Woman Owned Small Business, we are also active in seeing women advance within industries, such as architecture and engineering. At Red Iron Architects, we put our clients first.

Residential design, from completely new construction to additions and remodels, is another specialty of ours. The residential code, along with the best products and materials for our coastal area, are important considerations with any home built in or near the Charleston area. This 1,650 square foot renovation included the pool house and pavilion. Red Iron Architects enlarged the existing pool house by removing some parking, materials, and paint. The pool house will include restrooms, pool equipment, a porch area with gas fireplace, and large TV screens.

Large pre-engineered metal buildings, or PEMBs, and tilt-up concrete construction structures have very different construction techniques when compared to traditional stick built construction. There are special code considerations for the sheer size of the structures, as well, and being familiar with the materials and techniques allows some design element without adding much, if any, cost. A&R Bulkpak, a company that specializes in state of the art packaging and distribution of plastics, was expanding their business from New Jersey into Berkeley County, South Carolina.

Our portfolio shows commercial design ranging from office buildings and workout facilities to distilleries and breweries. Having a wide range of capabilities and a talented staff allows us to take the time with our clients to learn their business and incorporate all their needs into one cohesive design. This is an 1,800 square foot front porch addition onto the Celadon Warehouse Facility, which was originally part of the Charleston Naval Base and Shipyard. The design incorporates a mono-pitched exposed wood truss system, creating an open and inviting storefront façade.
