Dolphin Architects + Builders

Dolphin Architects + Builders transforms custom homebuilding into a seamless, stress-free experience, where design and construction work are in harmony from concept to completion. With a deep appreciation for the Lowcountry’s natural beauty, Dolphin creates homes that embrace the outdoors at every turn.

Thoughtful, investment-worthy design meets masterful craftsmanship, resulting in residences that are as enduring as they are elegant. With a distinguished legacy of building waterfront and Lowcountry-inspired homes throughout Charleston and beyond, Dolphin crafts more than houses—they create sanctuaries, designed for those who seek beauty, serenity, and a life deeply connected to nature.

Approved for Building

The Kiawah River Builders Guild is a referral roster of builders who understand the vision, look, and feel of Kiawah River. Members of the Builders Guild will be the first to build residences in Kiawah River.

Each member of the Builders Guild understands the sea island aesthetic, and is committed to Kiawah River’s community ideals for quality, sustainability, and green building practices.

Builders are independently owned and operated and are not affiliated with the developer. Approval of builders under the Builder Guild shall not be construed as an endorsement, warranty or certification of the builder or the builder’s performance.

A Destination

“This project will remain a destination, and a point of reference for what the standard of development and design should be for a long time to come.”
- Howard Backen and Luca Pignata, Architects
