Industrial intelligence applied with purpose
At House of Urbanik, we don’t approach construction as a series of disconnected steps — we operate through an integrated, intelligent system. What differentiates us is our ability to unite technology, precision, and craftsmanship into one coherent platform for smart housing.
Our work is built around a single, data-driven model that connects design, engineering, production, and execution in real time. This allows us to reduce complexity, eliminate inefficiencies, and make informed decisions at every stage of the process. Instead of static drawings and fragmented workflows, we create living digital twins that evolve with the project.
By combining advanced BIM processes, digital engineering, prefabrication systems, and sustainable manufacturing, we move beyond traditional construction methods.
Our approach enables faster execution, higher quality, and greater predictability — without compromising design intent or craftsmanship.
This is Intelligence of innovation!
The result is a smarter, more transparent way of building — one that delivers long-term value, architectural clarity, and sustainable solutions for the future of housing.

Communication is important when dealing with changes, as they take place on every project, and this they were on point every step of the way. I will be using House of Urbanik on many future projects!
-Ian Evans
What clients say about us
Katrina and Tom Urbanik has been great to work with. As a local remodeling contractor specializing also in kitchens and bathrooms, we often require the advise and guidance of an Architect. Many of our projects are small, but very detailed, and Katrina is always there when we need her. Her plans help to get Permits in a timely manner and allow us to keep the job running. Together we are able to produce incredible projects. Working with Katrina and Tom has been a pleasure, and I would highly recommend them.

What clients say about us
Katrina Urbanik "had me at Good morning madam"! Katrina is so passionate about her work and providing the best service to her clients...this was immediately evident to me! After several negative experiences with other architects, I was thrilled to have found Katrina Urbanik and her truly sterling character. Katrina has become my remodel angel! But for Katrina, I would still be struggling to get my remodel off the ground...thankfully, Katrina recommended a GC to me that is in the same class of integrity as Katrina! I have touted Katrina's abilities and demeanor to everyone I know, and I highly recommend House of Urbanik! I love House of Urbanik, and you will too! Hire them now!

A great contractor and architect, Katrina and Tom Urbanik and the team at House of Urbanik do a great job organizing and planning the jobs to make everyone’s experience more efficient.
-Melania Grey
What clients say about us
I cannot recommend House of Urbanik enough. They very graciously took on my very difficult project after another contractor resigned. I am beyond happy with the result. I know with Katrina and Tom that the job has been done properly, and all of their associates were able to communicate exactly what was being done, when, and why. The communication was unmatched. I will actually miss their updates and Katrina emails😊 In addition to excellent communication, the job was done in a timely manner. More was completed with this company in 4 weeks than 10 months with my previous contractor. All of the folks who worked on the job were kind and hardworking. I have only positive things to say about House of Urbanik. I will happily use them again in the future, and I am thankful I was put in touch with such an upstanding company and people behind it.
-Nina Overland
What clients say about us
The House of Urbanik team did an incredible job designing our home. Katrina and Tom made the process efficient and fun. They developed a set of documents that supported the architecture my wife and I were looking for along with the right documents to allow the permitting and construction process to run smoothly. It's my pleasure to give them as high of a rating as I can.
-Jon Andersen
What clients say about us
House of Urbanik made our dream kitchen and bathrooms a reality! They offered innovative insights for the designs and delivered a final product that was stunning. All team members were very professional and dependable. We would definitely recommend and use House of Urbanik for future projects.
-Christian Riise
What clients say about us
We have built or renovated several buildings, including a Office Building, and several homes in the past. When we acquired a villa in Marbella that required a total renovation, we interviewed several architects, and found Katrina Urbanik who has the experience, professionalism and enthusiasm that we were looking for. House of Urbanik is a design and build firm, and from the very first meeting through the final walk through, we had been thoroughly impressed with them. House of Urbanik showed the rare ability to quickly and fairly resolve any disputes, whether with ourselves, the city inspectors, suppliers, or the sub-contractors. And speaking of the subs, their build department have assembled a grouping of subs that are professional and competent; a rarity in Marbella, believe me! I would (and already have) recommend House of Urbanik and different clients and firms who is facing any construction project.
-Karina Melbye
What clients say about us
After looking through various architecture books and magazines we came across architect Katrina Urbanik's projects. Then we thought we had to contact her as we were looking for a brave architect with a modern design language and expertise within concrete, glass and steel. Together with Urbanik, we have created and buildt 2 unique brick homes. Although we had a clear idea of what we wanted, we took our time with planning and engineering and were amazed by the design process. After refurbishing and rehabilitating several older houses, we would finally build one modern distinctive housing that was easy to maintain. We highly recommend Katrina Urbanik and her team.
-Betty Ann Hoel and Lars Erik Hoel
What clients say about us
When we bought back a neighbours plot of land we sold earlier because got cold feet as we were afraid they were going to build something absolutely terrible there, we decided to find a good architect. The choice fell on the Bærum architect Katrina Urbanik, who has already made a mark on Nesøya with her modern functional houses. We are very satisfied with the result. You can say that the home was designed with a good neighborhood in mind. The location ensures buyers a fantastic sea view, without the home being a nuisance to us or our neighbours.
-Sven Sejersted Bødtker.
What clients say about us
Great team of professional and ethics minded people. They deliver on time and are very, very reliable and easy to work with. Katrina and Tom made our two last project very easy to permit and we were able to get a certificate of occupancy without any hassle.
-Marita Svendsen
What clients say about us
House of Urbanik is one of the best companies I have worked with for architectural and renovation services. The staff is very professional and on top of dealing with the building department to get permits approved quickly with minimal comments or revisions. House of Urbanik completed my set of permit drawings within a few days and made me feel like they valued me as a client. They finished the whole renovation in 4 months. I will be using them on all future projects and would recommend them to anyone looking for design or renovation services.
-David Burke
What clients say about us
Katrina and Tom are awesome. Can't recommend enough. Very complex plans 680 m2 of office space damaged from natural accident passed through with no comments. Katrina and Tom and their team also pulled permits and completed all of the demolition work and saved me for so much money. Very happy with the service, communication, and results. Will be using for future work.
-Daniel Nilsen
What clients say about us
We designed and build a home with Katrina and Tom during their terrible family and business situation in 2015. We met and I immediately felt comfortable and confident in Katrina and her team to supply plans for our new single family home. In my experience, I did read some few bad reviews, but most really god ones. But from the very beginning, everyone was professional, pleasant, capable, knowledgeable, caring and responsive. Emails, texts or phone calls were responded to speedily, and in one instance, because I couldn’t sleep, I sent off an email inquiry at 4:30 in the morning and was shocked to get a response back at 5:30. The team handled everything, including mechanical, civil and structural engineers, so we had a one-stop-shop for all our needs. The plans produced were brilliant, and it seems no stone was left unturned. I can wholeheartedly recommend House of Urbanik. They really do care and are awesome at what they do. I am so grateful others clients who pay for what they want and order post real good reviews... they were my first choice, and I didn’t need to look any further. If you are reading these reviews because you need architectural or construction services, call Katrina Urbanik right now.

-Cornelia Solheim, Senior Advisor
What clients say about us
"After living in Boston for more than 10 years, I decided that I wanted a place on a beautiful lake. The most challenging step is to find the right team, architect and builder to merge a cozy, intimate, modern residence with the practical requirements and distinct qualities for a specific design. After interviewing a few architects in the area, my choice came unexpectedly from my regular visits to Costa del Sol, southern Spain. I was fortunate to meet the Urbanik’s: Katrina, a well-seasoned architect and Tom, a bold, and very committed builder. Both are obsessed with the idea that a great project starts with planning and focusing on every small detail. As challenging as this project looks, my dialogue with their team is smooth and very constructive. Their guidance is gentle and considerate. I am confident that their experience and expertise is the necessary link for what would ultimately be my dream house.
