Georgetown Architect Makes Architectural Digest Top 100

This week, Jacobsen Architecture, a Georgetown-based firm headed by modernist Hugh Jacobsen, was named to Architectural Digest’s Top 100 Talents in Architecture and Interior Design.
Jacobsen designs slightly surrealistic homes inspired by traditional shapes. The exteriors often look like children’s drawings of houses or barns: starkly outlined boxes with triangles on top. With interiors devoid of any moldings and trim, the clean lines of the layouts are generally white on white.

Jacobsen has lived in DC since 1958 and has designed and updated hundreds of homes around the District, as well as renovating the Renwick Gallery and designing an addition to the U.S. Capitol Building.
