You know that moment when a design transcends mere aesthetics and becomes an immersive experience? That’s the essence of what PASTELLA BURNS brings to the architectural world. Led by the dynamic duo of Patrick Pastella and Kanitha Burns, this firm isn’t just building luxury homes—they’re changing what luxury in architecture truly means. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for innovation, Patrick and Kanitha have positioned PASTELLA BURNS as a leader in the design-build space, known for creating residences that are as bold as they are beautiful.
The most iconic of these projects is The Lodge. Composed of oak and steel, every inch was customized in this home—from walls and floors to each piece of furniture. Patrick, the CEO and creative force behind PASTELLA BURNS, used the space as a canvas to show just how limitless his design capabilities were. The result? Imagine a house that exudes masculinity but is also polished with an air of sophistication from the city. The Lodge is a standing showroom of what PASTELLA BURNS can achieve if given complete creative freedom.

COO Kanitha Burns brings a unique blend of business acumen and an understanding of the luxury market to ensure that every project by PASTELLA BURNS meets and exceeds the clients’ expectations. Skilled in all matters regarding property acquisition, contract negotiation, and construction operations, her expertise forms the backbone of the firm’s success. Patrick and Kanitha are a perfectly balanced team, complementing each other’s best attributes to build homes that are functional and extraordinary.
Then there’s SPAHAUS, another testament to the firm’s innovative approach. Starting with a core structure dating back to 1852, this project was transformed into a one-of-a-kind home that seamlessly blends old and new. The design features a juxtaposition of bright, airy spaces with darker, more intimate ones, creating a flow that feels both organic and intentional. What makes SPAHAUS truly remarkable is how Patrick and his team handled the challenges presented by the existing structure. Instead of seeing constraints, they saw opportunities to create something unique. Interior sightlines were carefully managed, turning potential obstacles into standout features. The result is a home that feels harmonious and distinct, an embodiment of the PASTELLA BURNS design philosophy.
At the heart of PASTELLA BURNS is a commitment to crafting experiences, not just buildings. Their work is characterized by bold, innovative designs that explore new frontiers in residential architecture. Whether they’re working with raw, natural materials like in The Lodge, or transforming historic spaces as with SPAHAUS, the firm consistently delivers projects that are both functional and visually stunning. Patrick’s creative vision, combined with Kanitha’s strategic oversight, ensures that every PASTELLA BURNS project is a masterpiece in its own right.
PASTELLA BURNS is helping to shape luxury in the architectural world, one project at a time. Their work is not only aesthetically pleasing; it’s a reflection of their true understanding of the luxury market and sophisticated lifestyles. By blending innovation with meticulous craftsmanship, Patrick and Kanitha prove that true luxury is about creating spaces that resonate on a deeper level.
