Navona Architecture is a premier design firm that provides innovative and resilient solutions to its clients. The company was founded by Stephanie Bedinghaus in 2019 and is dedicated to creating spaces that allow communities and businesses to flourish. The name Navona Architecture was inspired by Piazza Navona in Rome, Italy, a place that has evolved over the years to meet the needs of the current generation. Stephanie believes that every building design should embody this principle of resilience and evolution.
The company's design culture is guided by the motto "Listen first, then innovate and design." This means that the firm places a high priority on understanding the underlying desires of its clients before delivering a solution that meets those needs. Navona Architecture is committed to creating beautiful, functional, and resilient architecture for generations to come.
One example of Navona Architecture's work is the Blue Stem Winehouse, a historic building that was originally built as a residence in 1911. Over the last century, the building has served many purposes, but it is now being transformed into a winehouse. The owners are excited to bring back an Art Deco vibe to the space, with gold walls, burgundy curtains, Art Deco furniture, and antique attained glass lighting. The winehouse will feature a warm and cozy fireplace, a beautiful black waterfall counter, mahogany shelving to showcase the wine selection, and a basement that will be used for fermentation.
Navona Architecture's team is made up of talented architects, designers, and engineers who have extensive experience in creating spaces that are both functional and beautiful. They have a deep understanding of the latest building technologies and materials, and they are committed to using environmentally friendly solutions whenever possible.

Stephanie’s love for architecture began early; at the age of eleven, she was designing
houses - floor plans and elevations. Growing up in a neighborhood with houses constantly
under construction, she loved exploring the houses before the drywall went up - walking
between studs, knowing they would soon be covered with sheathing and finishes and only a
few people would know what’s “hidden” behind all that paint.
Now, as an architect, she loves working with clients to see their vision go from ideas or
napkin sketches to structure and finishes. Her organizational and problem-solving skills, as
well as her attention to detail and drive to create the best solutions for her clients, make
designing architecture a lifelong love for her.
