Vicente Architects – Fairfield, Connecticut

About Vicente Architects

Founded in 1999, Vicente-Burin Architects is an award-winning architectural practice specializing in bespoke residential design. Led by partners Paulo Vicente, A.I.A., and Martina Burin, A.I.A., the firm is known for crafting exceptional projects tailored to the unique visions of discerning clients.

At the heart of Vicente-Burin's approach is a dedication to simplicity and timelessness. Their design philosophy focuses on distilling concepts to their purest form—whether through efficient floor plans, expressive material choices, or celebrated structural details. Each project is considered holistically, balancing program requirements with context, natural features, and budget.

With over 20 years of experience, the firm has cultivated a process that yields architecture rooted in substance, integrity, and originality. Every project is guided with personal attention, as a partner remains involved from Schematic Design to Construction Administration. This ensures a thoughtful, collaborative experience where client priorities are deeply understood and translated into built reality.
