Christopher B. Collins’s contribution to the
Chicago single-family residential market rivals any boutique residential architect. CBC Architects, Inc’s principal,
Christopher B. Collins, ALA, has over 16 years of experience in design and construction in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of
Chicago. Today, CBC|A has extended beyond exclusively serving developers and now offers services to private homeowners. · CBC|A's principal retains licenses in the State of Illinois and the State of Wisconsin. He is a member of the Association
of Licensed Architects (ALA), Sheffield Neighborhood Association, and Central Lake View Neighbors (CLVN). Christopher serves
on the CLVN-Planning & Zoning Committee. ·
Christopher keeps up with sustainable architecture’s
move from trend to mainstream; he is a LEEDd Accredited Professional (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). This
accreditation distinguishes building professionals with the knowledge and skills to successfully steward the LEED certification
process for healthy and cost saving green homes. Christopher is also both a residential and commercial registered energy professional
with the City of Chicago. ·
CBC|A’s field experience extends beyond the typical
behind-the-desk architects. Years of work in both designing and construction management diminishes the chance of production
errors, expedites the delivery process, and reduces the number of change orders. Christopher’s skills ensure your money
is spent effectively. ·
Christopher has worked on dozens of projects requiring
various zoning amendments including City of Chicago Administrative Adjustments, Zoning Variances, and Planned Developments. · CBC|A projects have successfully passed the reviews of the Chicago Landmarks Commission and Wisconsin Historical Society’s
Division of Historic Preservation review for tax credits. · Christopher has worked with Chicago’s highly respected interior designers Soucie Horner Ltd, Gregga Jordan Smieszny,
Cannon Frank, Maurice Blanks Architects Inc., & Atelier Branca and has worked with Chicago’s top builders including
Metzler/Hull Development Corporation and Hewitt Horn Inc. · Christopher qualifies to Self-Certify documents for City of Chicago permits cutting months out of the permit process
for residential projects and for commercial projects with prototypes. · Multi-million dollar single-family residences dominate Christopher’s portfolio. Other projects include family
room additions, masonry garages with roof deck additions, commercial building façades, porch repair, new midrise condominium
buildings, loft building renovations, residential high rise interiors, iron fencing, and cabinetry design.
