Knickerbocker Group offers architecture, design, cabinetry and construction services for custom homes and commercial spaces. If you have explored our portfolio, you’ve seen examples of our work: residential architecture, design, woodworking detail… rooms that meld the artful with the practical. We’re very proud of what we do and we’re even more excited about how we do it.

Over the past three decades, we have built relationships with a diverse network of artisans and craftspeople, both in-house and freelance professionals. Together, we are a group of inspired collaborators who contribute their diverse talents to the design-build process. We take the journey with our clients, during which we consider everything—from traffic pathways in the kitchen, to parking the car on rainy days, to creating sunny nooks and sleeping porches. Along the way, we refresh our commitment to every project’s possibilities, again and again.

The natural outcome of attracting a great group of Maine talent has been the growth and evolution of our original business, Boothbay Home Builders, founded by Steve Malcom in 1978. With the addition of woodworking services in 1985, architecture and design expertise in 1990, and more recently the incorporation of caretaking services, Knickerbocker Group was formed.

Today, our campus in Boothbay is a hive of activity. Some of us are out in the field, others are in our workshops, still others collaborate in our design studio and showroom.

Altogether, we bring great care, excitement and passion to every aspect of our work, from the inner workings of a high performing building to the finely crafted details of a custom home.
