architecture + construction
Jacobeen Homes provides comprehensive architectural design and construction services that help make your home special and uniquely yours. Founded by Daniel Jacobeen who has more than 25 years of design and construction experience in the Washington, D.C. area.
Jacobeen Homes combines professional experience, creative problem-solving, and exceptional craftsmanship with a friendly, relaxed, and client-centered approach. Our construction process is transparent, collaborative, and fully customizable to meet the needs of your project.
We believe every successful project begins by understanding your family, your lifestyle, and your goals. Taking the time to learn what matters most to you helps us build a strong partnership and enriches the collaborative design and construction process. Our streamlined yet flexible design methodology allows us to deliver outstanding value while ensuring that every project receives the thoughtful attention it deserves. While we do work on many high-end homes, we firmly believe that good design should be accessible—creative, high-quality solutions can be achieved at varying budgets.
To create holistic and beautiful outcomes, we collaborate with a trusted network of talented design and construction professionals, ensuring each project is considered from every angle.
Daniel’s passion for design and building began early—drawing house plans, crafting with Legos, constructing tree forts, and even digging backyard ponds. Growing up in a large family in a small home fostered his appreciation for efficient space planning and clever storage solutions. These early interests evolved into a lifelong dedication to design and construction. After earning his master’s degree in architecture, Daniel spent more than a decade at an award-winning traditional residential firm in Georgetown, working on projects ranging from contemporary renovations to expansive classical estate compounds. He is now a licensed architect in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C., and holds a Class A Residential Contractor’s license in Virginia.
A native Virginian, Daniel lives in Alexandria with his wonderful wife of 19 years and their three energetic children. When he’s not crafting architectural designs or coordinating subcontractors, he enjoys family adventures, time outdoors, athletics, woodworking, home improvement projects, and chasing kids around the yard.
Welcome to Jacobeen Homes where thoughtful design, genuine partnership, and skilled craftsmanship come together to create homes that enrich everyday life.
