Brick and Modern Design is an Arizona-based design studio working on projects of varying scale and location. The studio focuses on architectural and interior work across residential, multi-family, commercial, and tenant improvement projects, approaching design as a process of clarity—balancing spatial intent, practical constraints, and careful execution.
​
The practice is informed by architectural training and professional experience across a range of project types, from private residences and interior renovations to mixed-use developments and early planning studies. Work emphasizes clear communication, thoughtful planning, and drawings that support informed decision-making.
​
Design is understood as a collaborative effort. Each project is developed through close coordination with clients and a clear understanding of their vision, translating ideas into spaces that are functional, restrained, and purposeful.
​
The studio’s work is shaped by complementary backgrounds in design and education. Reneirio Minguez II, Co-Founder and Principal Designer, has a bachelor’s degree in architecture and professional experience in architectural and interior design, grounded in architectural licensure completed in the Philippines and interior design education in the United States. Novie Minguez, Co-Founder and Director, brings a background in special education, informing an inclusive and human-centered approach to spatial planning and learning environments.

Reneirio Minguez II is a LEED Green Associate with focus on careful, sustainability-informed design.

Brick and Modern Design was co-founded to support thoughtful, well-considered design work—focused on process, clarity, and long-term value rather than spectacle.
