WHO WE ARE

ARCHITECTS & DEVELOPERS

We are AVLV (“Avolve”), a vertically integrated sustainable architecture, development, and real estate firm built to do things differently. Founded in 2018, we specialize in sustainable, mixed income, mid and high end single, multifamily, and mixed use developments. Our integrated model enables us to provide cost-effective, sustainability-focused architecture services to developers, while offering high-impact real estate investment opportunities to our investors. 

Founded in 2025, our real estate division provides comprehensive acquisition and disposition services across both commercial and residential markets, seamlessly integrated with our in-house architecture and development teams to optimize project potential and maximize long term value.

Our mission is to create lasting positive impact by implementing environmental and social sustainability through innovative architecture, community-focused development, and strategic real estate solutions. We envision a world where the built environment enhances the human experience, restores our connection to nature, and uplifts communities.

Human-Centered Design We design for people — deeply considering the physical, emotional, and psychological needs of users in every space we create.

Nature as Teacher We study natural systems to inspire efficient, elegant, and regenerative solutions — letting nature guide both form and function.

Simplicity with Depth We strive for designs that are graceful and minimalist, yet rich in function and intention — balancing complexity with clarity.

Synergy & Integration Like the human body, our work thrives on the coordination of complex parts. We unify architecture, development, and real estate into a cohesive, high-impact process.

Creative Expression Design is not just utility — it’s an opportunity to evoke emotion, identity, and inspiration through form, space, and material.

Sustainability as Standard Environmental and social sustainability are not features — they are the foundation of every decision we make and every project we pursue.

Community Impact Our work serves real people and real neighborhoods. We develop with empathy, inclusion, and lasting community value in mind.

THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE

We are experts in environmental and social sustainability

Our designs are sustainable and centered around the human experience, improving quality of life for the occupant.

WE TAKE A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO OUR DESIGN PROCESS

This results in exceptionally thoughtful and thorough drawings. We figure out everything for you, from maximizing site potential to eliminating contractor guess work during construction.

OUR EXPERIENCE ALLOWS US TO TRUELY UNDERSTAND YOUR NEEDS

As developers and investors ourselves we understand the bottom line. Delivering a project that is of exceptional quality and aesthetics yet profitable, completed on time, and on budget.

SUSTAINABLE + MIXED INCOME

As developers, we assess every project’s potential and calculate the associated risks. We study economic trends and developmental growth patterns within the surrounding areas to ensure a project’s viability. We look for opportunities to revitalize blighted areas, activate socioeconomic growth, and restore communities. All of our development projects are sustainable and include mixed income housing where applicable. Our developmental capacity includes projects ranging from single and multifamily residential to mixed-use, community and urban development.

Real Estate

Services for Developers

Acquisitions & Dispositions Agents

Our agents identify and analyze deals prime for development. They collaborate with our in house architecture & development teams to determine the highest and best use of a project, evaluating both financial and programmatic feasibility. We integrate financial modeling with design and development analysis—assessing site buildable area, unit count & mix, and massing studies. Deliverables include a comprehensive pro forma, architectural renderings, and a compelling investor pitch deck to support each project’s vision and viability.
