McMakin’s unique style comes together in the professional services side of his company called, Domestic Architecture. What sets the architecture apart is his ability to construct a whimsical personality with common architectural elements like material, walls, doors, windows and stairs. Building materials and color play an important role in his interiors, consequently quirky details abound within McMakin’s mannered designs. Contrasts in scale and proportion create a sublime effect; McMakin knows the rules and enjoys manipulating the rules. Looking at his projects you realize every architectural detail has been carefully designed.
