A boutique residential architecture practice in the Washington DC region. Designing new homes and whole-house renovations where clean air, non-toxic materials, and natural light are considered from the start to help you thrive. Led by a WELL Accredited Professional, serving Washington, DC and Northern Virginia.
KLPOA is a boutique residential architecture practice built on a simple idea: the home you live in should actively make you healthier. Most houses are designed for how they look and what they cost. We design for what you breathe, how you sleep, and how a space feels to live in day after day — without ever compromising on beauty or craft.
The practice is led by Kacper Lastowiecki, a licensed architect (AIA, NCARB) and WELL Accredited Professional with a Master of Architecture from Princeton. That combination is rare: a designer who can draw a genuinely beautiful home and speak fluently to indoor air quality, material chemistry, circadian lighting, and moisture control. Kacper leads every project personally, start to finish — there's no handoff to junior staff, and no project is too detailed to earn his full attention.
We take on only a small number of projects each year, by design. That focus lets us go deep: pressure-testing every material choice, HVAC decision, and window placement against how it will affect the people inside. Whether you're building new, renovating a whole house, or trying to understand why your current home doesn't feel right, KLPOA brings the rare mix of architectural craft and building-health expertise to make your home a place that supports you.
You could hire an architect. You could hire a wellness consultant. KLPOA is both in one person and that changes the entire result.
A licensed architect and a WELL AP
Most healthy-home advisors can't design your house, and most architects can't speak to building health. Kacper does both, so wellness is engineered into the architecture instead of layered on top of it.
Principal-led, no handoff
You work directly with the architect on every drawing and decision. Your project never gets passed down to junior staff — the person you hire is the person doing the work.
Health as a design discipline
Air, light, materials, comfort, and sound are treated as core design problems from day one, backed by real building science instead of marketing language added at the end.
Boutique by design
We take on only a handful of projects a year so each one gets deep, uncompromising attention. You are never one file among dozens.
Beautiful and healthy
A healthy home shouldn't look clinical. Every project is designed to be as striking and livable as it is good for you.
As a full-service architecture firm, we offer a wide variety of services from first sketch all the way through construction.
