Meet James Knight
The lead designer at Reynard Custom Homes, James Knight is the creative force behind each custom home design.

Ready to design and build your dream home?
Connect with James today to discuss your vision and experience the difference of a Reynard Custom Home.
Designing and building a truly custom home requires more than just a sketch; it requires a roadmap and the engagement and support of an entire team.
Since 2021, Reynard has been the architectural force behind over 50 custom homes to date. Our team works tirelessly to guide clients through the complex journey from concept to construction.
โ
As you tour our architectural portfolio, you'll see a diverse range of styles, but the process remains the same: we equip you with comprehensive architectural designs, photorealistic 3D renderings, and all the essential construction documentation required to get your home permitted and built.
Whether you are in the dreaming phase or ready to break ground, we would love to connect and hear your ideas.
โ
Stop dreaming. Start designing.
Our Team.
Reynard Custom Homes was born from a shared vision in 2020, when founders James Knight, Jack Baldwin, and Kalyn Kight first met while working at a commercial design firm in Atlanta. While the commercial world prioritized efficiency, we saw a missing piece in the residential market: a truly collaborative, client-first design experience.
โ
In 2021, we launched Reynard to bridge that gap. By combining James’s architectural vision, Jack’s client advocacy, and Kalyn’s visual storytelling, we created a firm that doesn't just draft plans—we bring homes to life. Today, our team bridges continents and disciplines to deliver architecturally distinct homes across the Southeast, grounded in transparency, technology, and a deep respect for our clients' dreams.

How Can I See What My Home Will Look Like Before Construction?
We believe you shouldn't have to guess what your dream home will look like or try to imagine a living space from flat, confusing blueprints.
Because we offer an unlimited design revision engagement, we utilize advanced architectural visualization tools to ensure you are 100% confident in the design before we ever break ground.

During every round of design we provide photorealistic 3D architectural renderings and walk through's.
We translate your architectural plans into high-fidelity 3D models to give you the ability to see detailed, full-color images of your homeโs exterior and key interior spaces (like the kitchen, primary suite, and great room) long before construction begins.

How Long Has Reynard Been Around and How Many Homes Have You Completed?
Reynard Custom Homes was born from a shared vision in 2020. Our foundersโJames Knight, Jack Baldwin, and Kalyn Kightโfirst met while working together at a commercial architectural design firm in Atlanta.
They realized the residential market was missing a truly collaborative, client-first design experience, so we officially launched Reynard in 2021 to bridge that gap.
Since our launch, we have been the architectural force behind over 60 custom homes to date.
โ
Because we are a bespoke design firm rather than a high-volume developer, we purposefully don't focus on churning out hundreds of cookie-cutter houses each year.
