Architecture & Interior Design in Nashville
Matt Zink, AIA, heads the Nashville studio of Carlton Edwards, an architecture and interiors practice designing custom residential work across Nashville and the communities around it. He works with an appetite for the unexpected. Every project is an opportunity to create something genuinely singular: spaces that clients remember not just for how they look, but for how they feel to move through.
Nashville is the right city for that ambition. Its energy is restless, creative, unafraid. The studio’s work reflects that. Contemporary architecture with real craft behind it, designed for clients who want something more than beautiful.
Carlton Edwards has received national recognition for this work, including a 2025 BALA Silver Award for Patio 617, an outdoor living space within the Jolene residence in College Grove. The project shows what happens when material precision meets genuine design daring.
