For over fifteen years, JCA Architecture + Design has crafted distinguished custom residences across the most established communities of northern New Jersey.
Every commission begins with your land and your life — then becomes architecture that honors both, and lasts far beyond the trends of the day.
JCA is led by principal architect Joseph Cestaro, supported by project architect Colin McArdle and designer Santiago Hernandez. We accept a limited number of commissions each year so that every residence receives our full attention — architecture that feels unmistakably yours.
A ground-up custom home where deep eaves, warm stone, and floor-to-ceiling glass open the house to its wooded lot.
A bold, dark-clad home in standing-seam, stone, and steel — glowing against the evening sky.
A rear addition and second story that doubles the home's footprint while staying true to its original street presence.
Ground-up residences designed around your land, your family, and your future.
Thoughtful expansions that read as if they were always part of the home.
Interiors and exteriors reimagined with respect for the original architecture.
We would be delighted to discuss your project. Reach out to arrange a private consultation.
