Four Brothers Design + Build

John was born in DC, and grew up near Kalamazoo, Michigan. After graduating from Kalamazoo College, where he studied Music and Philosophy, he returned to the DC area. John has cultivated an appreciation for producing things with his hands in near a decades’ work in sustainable agriculture, and he joined Four Brothers eager to develop a new set of skills. He took an interest in home building and renovation after his parents built a house as their last hurrah prior to retirement.

Tatiana grew up near Seattle, Washington, and it was there that she was introduced to architecture. After looking at drawings of a friend's home renovation, she left with a dream to understand the drawings and design something of her own. She moved across the country to study at the Catholic University of America and it was there that she completed her bachelor of architecture. She spent a summer studying classical architecture in New York, and then came back to DC to complete her Master of Architecture with a concentration in classical architecture and urbanism. She worked for a few years at a firm specializing in traditional ecclesiastical design, and decided to transition back to where it all began: residential design.

Even as a child, Edwin was keenly interested in the mechanics of how things work. That innate curiosity is an asset when designing “buildable” remodeling projects. Edwin has a degree in Architectural Technology and worked as a draftsman and then a project designer before joining our firm. He has significant experience in residential design/build projects. He is intimately familiar with the building codes in Washington, DC, Maryland and Virginia. Edwin is also adept at a variety of CAD and BIM software programs. With a fine eye for design and his can-do attitude, Edwin is a valuable addition to the Four Brothers team.

At Four Brothers, Andrew oversees day-to-day building tasks on our projects, managing initial demolition, finish carpentry, and everything in between. As with all of our carpenters, he works closely with our project leads to accomplish complex tasks and make vision reality. Off the clock, Andrew enjoying refining his craft by working on his own home improvement projects.
