CACH Architecture, LLC

CACH Architecture is a design-driven architecture practice in Wellesley that puts sustainability at the center of its work. Founded in 2019 by architect Jonathan D. Cavanagh, it concentrates on residential architecture, drawing on his career serving high-end homes in the Boston suburbs. The firm favors high-performance building envelopes, with or without formal Passive House certification, and treats building performance, material life cycles and resource use as core design questions.

Cavanagh trained with Marcus Gleysteen on large projects around Weston, then spent more than ten years with Christopher Hall Architects in Wellesley and Boston, becoming a partner in 2016. He knows the planning requirements for large houses in Wellesley and Weston well and works with a broad network of local contractors and consultants. The practice stresses clear communication among clients, consultants, contractors and artisans to keep projects on schedule and budget.
