The studio specializes in residential and conceptual planning projects, offering services that include custom residential design, villas, whole house remodels, vacation cabins, and castles and estates. It also handles boutique commercial work, interior commercial projects, master planning, and re-branding. A core part of the practice is strategic design, which involves a forward-looking process covering needs, budget, program, aesthetics, expansion, and feasibility analysis. The firm also undertakes special projects that involve specialized design outside the strict boundaries of traditional architecture.

Founded by Joseph Conti, an NCARB-certified architect licensed in Arizona and Minnesota, the studio operates with a design mindset focused on balancing form, function, and aesthetic. The practice emphasizes substance and long-term value over superficial facades, using critical thinking at the start of each project to establish a clear path. The studio’s approach includes a conceptual "think board" process that uses drawings, diagrams, sketches, and pictures to create a schematic storyboard of ideas, moving beyond factory-like production toward a human-focused approach. The name Arc Castle Studio reflects this philosophy, with "Arc" representing a bridge or connection that unifies the big picture, and "Castle" serving as a metaphor for a cohesive, one-of-a-kind design process that harmonizes the entire project through thoughtful collaboration.
