The full-service architecture and design firm Damien Blumetti Architect was founded in 2017 by award-winning principal Damien C. Blumetti, AIA. Based in Sarasota, Florida, the practice specializes in residential and light-commercial projects, building upon a legacy of exceptional regional architecture. The firm is focused on curating projects from ideation through construction in order to develop an organizing principle of harmony throughout the design of a building, its function, and the landscape in which it is set.

In this respect, the approach of Damien Blumetti Architect is a natural progression of the “Sarasota School of Architecture” (1941-1966), which remains the preeminent example of applied modern principles. The firm’s output is an ongoing response and refinement of this critically important body of work. The craft begins by first understanding the specific needs and vision of each client, followed by a close study of the site that investigates climate and character. A concept, or program, is then articulated that translates considerations of honest building materials, efficiency, and sustainability into an architectural solution.

Understanding the process does not end when the design leaves the studio, Damien Blumetti Architect distinguishes itself by following projects through the building phase. Spending time on-site, thus exercising control over the building process, the project architect and manager can ensure the correct implementation of the design while continuously refining—an essential part of the architectural craft. This level of attentiveness has become characteristic of the firm; in demonstrating esteemed professionalism, sharp communication, and unbound creativity through all phases, Damien Blumetti Architect serves an extensive and diverse clientele.
