Determine Design

Determine Design provides commercial architecture service in the greater Anchorage municipality and throughout the state of Alaska. Our position as a boutique firm enables faster, transparent movement through most phases of the building or renovation process. Our goal is to offer custom-tailored services that help business owners achieve their construction goals in a timely manner at a fair price. Architecture involves much more than just building plans. The team at Determine Design is eager to help navigate the intricate web of international and local building codes, planning and zoning requirements, and any additional services that may be required for the project.

Determine Design LLC was founded in 2014 by Daniel H. Clift, a life-long resident of Alaska. Daniel formally studied Architecture at the University of Idaho while gaining on-the-job experience at firms located in Alaska during the summer months. Upon receiving his Master's Degree, Daniel returned to Alaska permanently to complete his professional training and became fully licensed by the state of Alaska to practice commercial architecture in 2015. We are located in Anchorage, AK and provide commercial architecture design and building permit support services within the municipality and throughout the state of Alaska.
