Creative in vision. Exacting in detail. An award-winning practice.
Muses 9 Designs is an Atlanta design studio working across every building type. We are creative in approach and exacting in detail , a combination that has produced award-winning work and lasting relationships with the clients who trust us with it.
A studio where design, production, and research are practiced with equal care, and where strategy sits at the same table.
How the studio works.
Design, design production, and research are not separate departments. They move together on every project, because that is how good buildings happen.
We design across every building type, residential, commercial, civic, hospitality, workplace, and the spaces in between. Each project begins with the site, the client, and the question of what the building should be before we ask what it should look like.
Drawings that build well. Our production work carries the same rigor as the design itself, coordinated documents, considered details, and specifications written by people who understand how a building actually comes together in the field.
Every project begins in study. Material, precedent, code, climate, and place are read carefully before a single line is drawn. Research is not a phase here, it is the habit that lets us work with confidence at any scale or program.
From site selection to final drawings — a full project team, on demand.
We partner with residential and commercial development firms and architectural practices that need world-class experience on demand. Not just a drafting team — a full project management team bringing decades of experience to every engagement, so a small firm can deliver at the level of a much larger one.

Four disciplines, designed by the same hand.
Commercial & Workplace
Headquarters, hospitality and retail. Spaces that perform commercially because they perform first as architecture, proportion, light, durable detail.
Residential
From single-family homes to multi-family neighborhoods. Plans tuned to the way a household actually lives, materials chosen for the next fifty years rather than the next photograph.
Luxury Hospitality
High-rise hotels, boutique properties, and destination restaurants. Spaces designed to be remembered, from the arrival sequence to the last detail at the bar.
Urban & Landscape
Plazas, courtyards, masterplans and streetscape. We work at the scale where buildings meet the city, weaving new program into existing fabric without erasing it.
A customer strategist alongside the architects.
Most firms hand the client experience off to whoever picks up the phone. We don't. A dedicated customer strategist works alongside the design team, making sure the project, the process, and the relationship are all designed with the same intent.
From first conversation through closeout, you always know where the project stands and what comes next.
We pair the right approach to the right client, not every project needs the same process, and we shape ours to match.
Buildings take years. The relationship behind them should be worth those years too.
