Founded in January 2010 by Brandon J. Kelly, COUPE architecture leverages years of diverse experience and meticulous attention to detail. Our firm is committed to designing high-end, quality projects that consistently exceed client expectations.

Brandon's architectural career began with inspiration drawn from the great works of Western Pennsylvania, particularly Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater. This early passion for art, drawing, and construction naturally led him to the field of architecture. He earned both his Bachelor of Science in Architecture and Master of Architecture degrees from the University of Cincinnati's School of Design, Architecture, Art & Planning—a program consistently ranked among the nation's top design schools.

Brandon is a licensed Architect in both Washington and Idaho. He holds certification from the National Council of Architectural Registration Board (NCARB) and is a LEED Accredited Professional, dedicated to practicing sustainable design strategies.
