THE CONTEMPORARY HOME

Based in Northern Virginia, the company’s vision and purpose is to create homes that are both intimate and inviting. Whether for repose and comfort at the end of the day or to reconnect and recharge with family, moments of life within the home are enriched by how a view is captured and framed; by the light that illuminates and warms surfaces throughout the day; and by the details that beckon and beguile. WCRA has designed a portfolio of homes in neighborhoods nationwide.
