Who We Are

Southwest Architecture.
Built Right.

Flynn & Smith is a design-build contractor based in Albuquerque. We handle architecture, design, and construction under one roof — which means tighter coordination, a single point of accountability, and no gaps between what was designed and what gets built.

We manage a trusted network of licensed craftspeople, with direct principal oversight on every project from the first drawing to the final walkthrough.

Our work draws from the architectural tradition of New Mexico — adobe construction, rammed earth, hand-laid stone, exposed timber vigas — brought forward with modern detailing and performance standards.

What Makes Flynn & Smith Different

01

Design + Build

One team from concept through construction. Your architect and your builder are the same firm — which means fewer surprises, clearer communication, and a finished home that actually reflects the design.

02

Southwest Expertise

Adobe, plaster, stone, vigas, kiva fireplaces, Talavera tile — we've built with these materials for decades. We know how they behave in the New Mexico climate and how to make them last.

03

Principal Oversight

Direct involvement from ownership on every project. You're not handed off to a project manager you've never met. The people you talk to at the start are responsible for your home at the end.

Kitchens

Custom Kitchens
Designed for Gathering

Handcrafted cabinetry, natural stone, exposed vigas, and thoughtful layouts designed for everyday living and entertaining. Every kitchen we build starts with how you use the space — and finishes with details that will still feel right twenty years from now.

  • Plaster & wood range hoods, built on site
  • Exposed timber vigas and wood beam ceilings
  • Handmade Talavera, zellige & artisan tile
  • Honed stone, quartzite & custom concrete counters
  • Custom cabinetry — walnut, alder & stained wood
Master bath — freestanding tub, desert view, stone

Bathrooms

Spa-quality,
Southwest soul

Our bathrooms are built with natural stone, travertine, and warm wood vanities. The materials are authentic, the finishes are warm, and the craftsmanship is meant to last decades — not just photograph well.

  • Travertine, limestone & handmade tile surfaces
  • Freestanding soaking tubs positioned for the view
  • Stone & marble vanity counters
  • Wood vanities with hand-applied finish
  • Radiant floor heating & mud-set tile beds

How We Work

One team.
No handoffs.

The advantage of design-build is accountability. One contract, one conversation, one team that owns the outcome from the first drawing to the final inspection.

We give you a realistic schedule and budget before you sign anything — and we hold to both.

01

Consultation

A free site visit to hear your goals and give you an honest read on feasibility, budget, and timeline. No obligation.

02

Design & Development

Our in-house team develops plans, elevations, and material selections. You review and revise until it's exactly right — before any pricing commitment.

03

Fixed-Price Contract

A detailed scope and price with no vague allowances. If the scope doesn't change, the number doesn't change.

04

Construction

Scheduled milestones, weekly updates, and one point of contact throughout. Trades are sequenced so your project stays on schedule.

05

Walkthrough & Handover

We walk every inch of the finished project with you. Punch-list addressed, warranties documented, keys in hand.
