H-Level Architecture is a boutique, design-driven studio based in Southwest Florida, focused on modern, sustainable, and wellness-centered environments. Founded in 2010, we have worked on 200+ projects and have blended architecture, interior design, and responsible building practices for 15 years to create spaces that elevate the human experience.
H-Level Architecture is a small, closely held practice led by a husband-and-wife team. We work closely with our clients, listening carefully and designing collaboratively. Each project grows from shared trust, curiosity, and a belief that the best architecture is shaped together.

Our work begins with place. Light, climate, landscape, and material inform every decision we make. By balancing nature with design, we create architecture that feels grounded and sustainable — spaces that belong to their environment and quietly enhance it.

Two worlds shape our design language. Michaela’s Italian roots bring a sensitivity to craft, while Brandt’s American modernist upbringing lends clarity. Together, these influences create architecture that is warm, refined, and contemporary.

At its core, our work is about care and joy. We design spaces that invite people in, support daily life, and leave room for quiet moments. Architecture, for us, is not just about form — but about elevating life to a different level.


Human
H-Level approaches each project with an individualized design methodology that requires the firm to listen — not only to their clients, but also to the voices of the elements around a particular site creating in every project both a reflection and an extension of its environment. We believe that architecture and spaces impact us and should be designed to leave a lasting impression.
After 30 years my home needed a makeover. I had some ideas, H-Level listened to what I needed and turned a dated, dark condo into a beautiful home with open space, large closets, more light and charm. My dream and H-Level’s talent created a beautiful home.
After years of living in the same space, I was ready for a change. H-Level took my outdated townhouse and transformed it into a warm, modern home filled with natural light and thoughtful details. They understood my vision and elevated it beyond what I imagined — every corner now feels intentional and inviting.
When I decided to renovate, I wanted a home that reflected my lifestyle and personality. H-Level listened carefully, guided me through the process, and turned my traditional house into a sleek, open, and functional space. The result is a stunning balance of comfort and contemporary design that I absolutely love.
H-Level designed an addition for my home. I work with a lot of architects and H-Level is easily in the top 5% of any I work with anywhere in the country. Brandt and his team are extremely talented and professional. The residential designs are always unique, and they have a way of making modern architecture feel warm and inviting as opposed to a cold commercial space.

Holistic
Like the word ‘Level’ that can be read front and back depending on how you look at the word, so is our attitude to architecture. It is not one-directional or linear. Our approach to architecture is holistic. We do not distinguish between architecture, landscape design, interior design and sustainability when we work on a project. The different design levels intersect and become one and will be looked at as a whole.

High-Level
H-Level strives to be a leader in high-performance architecture in the Naples, Florida as well as nationally and internationally. The company philosophy is simple as we want to create High-Level, beautiful, unique architecture that is integrated in its environment in a harmonious way.

At H-Level we blur the boundaries between art and science to create beautiful/ smart spaces.We work in a phased approach (Conceptual, Schematic, Design Development, and Construction Documents) providing detailed drawings, 3d models and virtual walk throughs to better understand the spaces

Having a vision and long term plan is critical for a successful project. We are masters of developing a design that balances and harmonizes all facets and phases required by: synthesizing the goals, code requirements, and merging the infrastructure with the vertical construction.

In order to create a well-integrated, built environment, we believe the interior spaces and materials shall combine function, beauty, comfort, efficiency, and durability.

Environmentally conscious architecture in Florida is relative to its environment, its economy and the ability to maintain a healthy interior environment. While H-Level provides green rating for its designs like LEED, and the Florida Green Building Coalition, the firm goes beyond the rating system and creates a new outlook of long lasting, responsible design choices made based on a solid return on investment. Plans that integrate sustainability principles reduce costs and risk, raise productivity, produce innovative outcomes and enhance the client’s social responsibility and create healthier environments.

In order to maintain the design intent, the client’s investment, the construction schedule and quality, we can perform the following services

Of course everybody has a budget and we will work with you to obtain accurate and complete construction costs. As well as assisting you in finalizing the contract with the builder, including but not limited to the following types of processes:

We can provide graphic design services as well as stunning architectural renderings in a myriad of styles, from hand drawn to photo realistic that can be used for presentations, marketing, sales, or design analysis.

We provide a balanced, aesthetically pleasing, and low-maintenance solution between the built environment and nature. We provide designs for landscaping that integrates seamlessly with the architecture and select species of plants that correspond with the environment.
