906 Studio Architects + Interiors

What 906 Studio Architects + Interiors does

906 Studio Architects + Interiors is a privately held, boutique architecture and interior design firm founded in 2014 and headquartered in historic downtown Franklin, Tennessee. The firm operates as an integrated practice, delivering architectural and interior design services as a single coordinated workflow rather than separate service lines. Its offerings span single-family residential, multi-family, commercial and Class A office, hospitality, civic and institutional, academic, retail, community amenity, and historic preservation projects, with notable specializations in animal-centric facility design and National Register historic restoration supported by materials expertise spanning Shou Sugi Ban siding, Douglas Fir timber trusses, limestone, cedar, and Corten steel. The practice is organized around dedicated studio verticals for single-family, multi-family, and commercial work, each led by a named Studio Lead reporting to Principal Mike Hathaway, with a broader 42-person interdisciplinary team that includes architects, interior designers, project managers, and administrative staff.

The business model is professional services on a project-by-project basis, with customized pricing tied to scope, size, and customization, delivered through multi-year contracts following initial consultation and proposal development. Revenue is generated through design fees, project management, and construction support across a diversified customer base that includes regional real estate developers (Northwood Ravin, Boyle Investment, Goodall Homes), hospitality operators (Southall Farms, Stable Reserve Spirits), healthcare systems (Williamson Health), educational institutions (Franklin Christian Academy), and government and nonprofit clients (Williamson County, City of Franklin, Heritage Foundation of Williamson County, Maury County). Distribution is consultative and relationship-driven, combining direct enterprise engagement, the firm's website and contact form, an active content and social media presence (LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, Houzz), and earned media across regional and trade publications.

Underlying capability centers on a proprietary interdisciplinary design methodology that intentionally breaks down silos between architects and interior designers, supported by 350+ completed projects, 25+ industry awards (including IIDA Tennessee Best Public Facility Project in 2022 and an Excellence in Construction Award from ABC Greater Tennessee), and established delivery partnerships with Shelter Planners of America (animal welfare planning), Kimley Horn, Genesis Engineering, Solomon Builders, and Oversite Consulting. The firm is founder-owned with no disclosed institutional investment, has been organically scaling since 2014, and has expanded its geographic footprint beyond Williamson County into Alabama and Mississippi while pursuing opportunities throughout the Southeast.
