Designing a home can feel daunting with so many decisions to juggle — from zoning and budget to comfort and aesthetics — but with a new build we seamlessly integrate each element, creating a thoughtful, functional, and truly personal space that reflects your lifestyle.

If you adore your home and community but are eager for updates, we’ll guide you through thoughtful options to enhance comfort, function, and beauty while honoring what you already love.

We value partnering with clients who embrace historic neighborhoods, where walkable streets, close community ties, and distinctive architecture define the setting. Our expertise lies in creating renovations, remodels, and additions that harmonize with styles such as Tudor Revival, Prairie, Mediterranean, Colonial Revival, and Bungalows, with completed projects across Florida, Georgia, and Pennsylvania ranging from $150,000 to over $15 million.

The C.O.A. application process can be complex and time-consuming, often leading to costly setbacks. Our team’s experience and strong working relationship with the Jacksonville Historic Preservation Commission ensures applications are handled with care and respect. We manage the filing and represent you at monthly JHPC meetings, guiding your project smoothly from submission to approval.

The Lane Group prescribes to the guidelines of designed buildings and specifying materials that are healthier, less energy consuming, more comfortable, more durable and economical.

Comprehensive, high-quality shop drawings accelerate the building process, protect critical design details, and ensure the accuracy of the finished work. By producing these drawings in-house and closely coordinating with suppliers and fabricators, we safeguard design integrity while streamlining construction, giving every project a seamless path from concept to completion.
C. Douglas Lane founded The Lane Group Inc. in 1989 as an architectural design firm specializing in custom single-family residences and small owner-occupied commercial projects. Each project is a one-of-a-kind design, never to be repeated, and developed with a steadfast commitment to excellence and craftsmanship.
We thoughtfully blend timeless, well-proportioned details with modern conveniences to create homes that are beautifully constructed, deeply personal, and meant to be cherished for generations. To maintain the highest level of focus and care, we accept a limited number of projects each year, ensuring our craftsmanship and planning remain uncompromised.
