A properly designed community can make a huge difference in people’s perception of their neighborhood environment. Having a cohesive theme can pull it together. Our company establishes an architectural theme and then creates community standards to help designers and other professionals coordinate with imagery appropriate to the neighborhood. Our company also plans the layout of the community (community planning). The neighborhood theming establishes a richness, value and aesthetic appreciation that might otherwise be missing. We call these services community planning and neighborhood theming.
Neighborhood Theming, Community Planning
Community Standards & Architectural Review Board Services
Rand Soellner is the Architect of Record on about half of Jurassic Park for Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida, as well as the designer of multiple award-winning house designs, including energy conservation awards from major power companies for energy-sipping residential designs (such as from Florida Power Corporation), design awards from the American Institute of Architects and magazine and book articles featuring his architecture worldwide. This world-class creative work along with scores of houses and community planning and neighborhood theming give Rand Soellner the specialized background that you as a developer or homeowner want and need for your unique suburban, country, lakeside, forest, or mountain dream house or community.
Home Architects ® also routinely themes houses and community facilities in neighborhoods to have a unique mountain flavor like these:
- Adirondack
- Arts & Crafts
- Craftsman
- Mountain Lodge style, which is Rand’s own unique theme that he has evolved over the years, to incorporate “what people coming to the mountains expect.”
The purpose in having a distinct theme gives cohesiveness to a neighborhood and helps developers obtain better sales price and faster sales than generic communities.
The company has surveyed hundreds of people coming to the mountains over the years, along with countless realtors and appraisers in this special environment. The results of this information gathering has resulted in the firm’s tightly focused neighborhood theming styles that PEOPLE WANT TO BUY AND PAY TOP DOLLAR FOR. Rather than simply creating themes than are personal whims, our company uses and creates themes that are what people want. Isn’t that what you as a developer want and need?
Community Standards Architect
Soellner writes Design & Construction Standards for communities. These standards insure that the quality community you had in mind when acquiring the parcel will live on in the built neighborhood. Soellner addresses Architectural, Landscape, Drainage, Site Planning and other issues, along with Construction practices, including forms to be filed with your ARC (Architectural Review Committee) by the homeowners and builders.

MOUNTAIN ARCHITECTS / LUXURY RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES, MOUNTAIN NEIGHBORHOODS
Architects need to have a leading role in the design of neighborhood theming and community planning. We are among the few specialized professionals that have the skills necessary to create the unique places we refer to as “the Mountains,” and other special communities, when people think of places to stay, live and recreate in these beautiful regions. Houses designed in conventional neighborhoods do not have the same flair as those created by luxury residential architects and Mountain Architects who live, work and daily create unique houses and other neighborhood themed facilities for styled neighborhoods and themed locations. A custom residential architect is best- suited to design special and mountain: residences, neighborhood entry features, clubhouses, pavilions, equestrian stables & associated areas, exercise facilities, outdoor spaces, multi-family and condominium structures, boathouses and other features. Community planning is a natural extension of these services.
