About Environs

Environs Residential Design & Construction
Founded 2001

Terry Kitts has over 20 years of high-end construction experience in both single and multi-family homes. Early in his career, his focus was new construction in snowy mountain regions where he gained valuable knowledge of structural engineering due to snow and wind factors that had to be addressed in those areas. He operated his own company for 8 years in Breckenridge, CO before deciding to move to Atlanta in 2001 for a warmer climate and opportunities to renovate classic, older homes. Terry is very environmentally conscious and has done extensive research in modular construction and alternative building materials. His hopes are to include "green" options on all projects to try to educate homeowners on ways to build and protect our natural resources at the same time. Terry was recently issued a State of Georgia Residential General Contractors license (# RBQA002359) and is happy the state has professionalized the industry to assist homeowners with better parameters with which to select a contractor.

Dawn Landau is a 20 year resident of Atlanta's Intown communities which include Midtown, Morningside and Virginia-Highland. This has strengthened her appreciation for Atlanta's older homes and increased her awareness as to building scale and community zoning issues. As the company's designer, she offers a more detail-oriented perspective than the typical design/build company. Not only will the overall floor plan and flow be considered, but during the design phase her clients can receive furniture plans and color consultations, topics that are often left to the homeowner at the 11th hour. Recently, Dawn received her real estate salesperson license and joined BLUE SKY REAL ESTATE GROUP as a licensed realtor adding another level of expertise and opportunity for Environs clients. She is also the business manager for Environs and holds a degree in Accounting from the University of Tennessee.

As a team, Dawn and Terry work to soften the lines between the structure that has to be and the surroundings that you enjoy. Their offices are located in Midtown and the company's phone number is (404) 810-0025..
