About Us

Studio E is an architectural firm located in southern Maine in the world-renowned "Paper City", Westbrook, Maine.

We began Studio E with the idea that we could provide good design for everyone. For us, good design is environmentally responsible design that has an eye on cost and value. It's comfortable to live and work in while still maintaining the infamous architectural "clean lines." We embrace technology for what it can do for you, and not just for its own sake.

We are located in southern Maine right outside of (the original!) Portland in Westbrook, Maine. You can reach us at margaret@StudioEArchitect.com. Our mailing address is: P.O. Box 1385, Westbrook, ME 04092.
