Detroit Architects: Smith, Moss & Mitschke

Smith, Moss & Mitschke was the architectural partnership of twentieth-century Detroit-based architects Keith W. Smith, Thomas W. Moss, and Alfred H. Mitschke – three masters of their craft who gained a prolific reputation for their sophisticated revival-inspired residences designed to withstand the test of time.

For proof of this, see Smith, Moss & Mitschke’s commission of the Dr. Henry Vaughn House at 2225 Burns in Indian Village, which stands as a model of their core strengths:

Constructing comfortable yet grand architecture with charm and presence, as well as utilizing proportion, form, and restrained ornamentation in a clever way.

Today, the Smith, Moss & Mitschke home stands as both an enduring family residence and a social statement that reinforces Indian Village’s reputation for being a district shaped by a selection of talented early architects – each adding to the neighborhood’s lasting architectural integrity and prestige.
