Hartland Architect Brings Unique Talent to Home Design

Dennis Dinser, architect and owner of Arcadian Design set off on his own, building his own business of building specialty homes for families.

"My clients and I both invest ourselves personally, and the finished home always reflects that collaborative effort," Dinser wrote.

Recently, Dinser submitted information about the business to Patch. If you have a business and want to participate in Patch's Small Business Shout Out you can fill out the form here.

How did your business come to be?: I was moonlighting while drawing for my employer, and once I knew I could execute an entire project on my own, I was ruined drawing for anyone else.

What's a fact about your business that most customers probably don't know?: My client's projects are my entertainment. I'd be drawing homes for fun if I weren't being paid for it.

What do you want your business to be best known for?: I design specialty homes, homes tailored to specific family needs and site conditions. The design process is methodical and gets very personal very quickly. My clients and I both invest ourselves personally, and the finished home always reflects that collaborative effort.

What's your most popular product or service?: I only provide one service, the best possible home for a particular family, on a particular site, with a particular budget.

When was the business founded?: September 1993. 

Why did you choose to locate to Hartland?: My wife and I wanted to raise our boys in an environment like Hartland. My wife teaches at Village, and most of my work is in Livingston county.
