SPECIALTY DESIGN

When your project defies convention, we’re ready.


Some structures don’t fit neatly into a predefined category, whether it’s due to a unique combination of materials, an unconventional framing system, or a one-of-a-kind design vision. At KLINE, we thrive on these challenges. Our team brings the technical expertise, creativity, and problem-solving mindset needed to develop innovative solutions for complex projects.

We’re not limited by traditional design boundaries. Instead, we work closely with clients to understand their goals, assess the unique parameters of the project, and craft structural solutions that are both practical and visionary.

Have an idea you’re exploring or a design challenge you need help solving? Let’s talk. We’re here to help bring your boldest concepts to life.
