What Christopher Architecture & Interiors does

Christopher Architecture & Interiors is a privately held, full-service luxury architecture and interior design firm founded in 2002 and headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama. The firm operates from three offices — Birmingham, Los Angeles, and New York — serving clients nationwide across three service lines: Custom Residential, Boutique Commercial, and Estate & Land Planning. Its distinguishing operational method is end-to-end collaboration between in-house architects and interior designers from concept through construction documentation and furnishings specification, intended to produce architecturally and aesthetically cohesive environments rather than fragmented handoffs between separate architectural and interior firms.

The company generates revenue almost entirely through project-based professional services fees, with pricing customized per engagement and not publicly disclosed. Its client base spans high-net-worth residential homeowners, premium commercial operators (retail, hospitality, restaurants, corporate offices), and institutional clients such as Auburn University. Named, publicly visible engagements include Blackstone Construction's office headquarters, Martin's Barbeque, Caliber (firearm retail), The Residences at Alta (37-unit luxury hospitality), and the Auburn University President's Home & Event Complex, which is used more than 160 times per year.

The firm operates a portfolio of sub-brands — Bespoke Forged (custom metalwork), Christopher Collection (luxury retail), Armour House (event venue), and POGO (event brand) — indicating an ecosystem play that extends beyond pure architectural services. It markets primarily through project portfolio content, Instagram, Dering Hall directory listing, and earned media features in ArchDaily, Ocean Home, Southern Home, and Birmingham Home & Garden. Leadership is concentrated in principals Chris Reebals (President & Principal Architect), Ria Neill (VP, Design Director), and Mack Braden (VP, Studio Operations Director), supported by a Director of Finance, Director of Products & Procurement, project managers, designers, and dedicated marketing and IT staff. No funding rounds, ownership disclosures, or revenue figures are publicly available.
