Retrograin Architecture designs authentic, modern spaces that harmonize with the unique conditions of each client and site. Founded in 2025 by Architect Darren Hargrove, Retrograin’s design process is collaborative and creative focused with minimalist detailing while underlying local context. Prioritizing the convergence of contextual feedback along with specific client requests allows Retrograin to develop deeply meaningful Architecture that remains enduring yet respectful of a particular time and place.

​Located in the beautiful hills of Clermont, FL, Retrograin intends to be routed in the culture and community in which we live and work. The firm prioritizes the value of life, creative thinking, and freedom, and understands the importance of cherishing these fundamentals through responsible and careful design while respecting the environment.
