Winnetka Architects and Builders
At Scott Simpson Design + Build, we have more than 30 years of experience in the architecture and building of custom Winnetka houses plus homes in Northfield, Hubbard Woods and beyond. Our unified team of North Shore architects and builders specialize in new home construction, large-scale remodels, historic renovations and eco-conscious green building projects. As custom home builders, Winnetka IL homeowners have trusted us for years to build homes with superior craftsmanship and thoughtful design.
Winnetka amazes with sprawling lakefront properties mixed with homes from as early as the 1830s. This stylish suburb has lead us to create stunning new construction Winnetka houses and to preserve the heritage and traditions of a long-established community with expert restorations. We have enjoyed working on a variety of home building projects, including these favorite dream homes in Winnetka, Northfield and Hubbard Woods :

30+ Years of Making Custom Home Design + Build Dreams Come True | Winnetka Architects
“I felt very heard. The architects took into consideration how we wanted to live in the space and what we wanted to do. Their skill and professionalism and experience makes a major renovation feel like an everyday occurrence. Nothing threw them.”
~ Kiersey Family, Winnetka Renovation
“We just came down from putting our daughter to bed. She was thinking and naming her friends so she would have happy thoughts and happy dreams. She mentioned her usual girls and then added, “Scott Simpson, our Builder.”
~ Winnetka Custom Home Design and Build
“I know I wrote you something after our final walk-through but seeing you here just now – offering your assistance a year and a half later – I just want to say thanks for making us feel like a priority even after our project was done. It’s the best “in” having picked you guys.”
