We provide architectural design and documentation services for residential and commercial projects, with a focus on clear, practical drawings that support permitting and construction. We work closely with homeowners and contractors to keep projects coordinated, efficient, and moving forward.

My office has provided design and architecture services for the past 20+ years throughout the Bay Area. I engage many different project scales, from interior renovations, to small additions, to entirely new homes and sites.\n\nI enjoy collaborating closely with clients to shape their initial goals and needs into a design concept, which helps to guide the project from start to finish. By using plan diagrams, design options explored in 3D, and reference images, we can quickly test different ideas and resolve the look and feel of your project.\n\nI especially enjoy projects that respond to the specifics of each building or site, and strive to creating meaningful connections between indoor and outdoor environments. Regardless of project size, I strive to exceed client expectation and provide complete and professional services from project start, to permitting and on to the construction phase.

"Pann is friendly, professional, efficient and his rates are very fair, and he cleaned up after himself. He did a great job for me, and I will definitely hire him again! Pann discussed my jobs when we made our appointment, and he told me what materials I could pick up prior to his arrival to save time if I wanted to. He kept me apprised on the day of the job of when he would arrive, since he was anticipating traffic. I also appreciated that Pann really listened to how I wanted conduit hidden for the outdoor security lights. He was patient with me and and came up with a creative solution that looks great and avoided busting through a thick wall. Pann was very sensitive to using his time efficiently, which saved me money. Pann also pointed out safety issues with my kitchen lights and he uncovered sloppy taped together out door wiring in a soffit. I intend to have him back to re-do the obviously defective prior electricians' work. In my experience, intelligent, trustworthy, efficient electricians are hard to come by, so you would do well to hire Pann for your electrical needs!"

"The people we had contact with were very nice.  The person who installed the shutters did a good job and was friendly and professional.  The shutters look like a quality product.
 
The main thing is, I should have done my research before I contacted the company.  I knew shutters look nice, but I didn't know anything about the workings of shutters.  I knew I wanted to be able to close the bottom for privacy, and have the top open, and vice versa.  Turns out, the center divider rail is exactly at my eye level.  When the bottom shutters are closed, I can not see out the window.  This is no ones fault but my own.  I just didn't give it any thought.  I feel very closed in.  I want to keep the shutters in the three bedrooms, but eventually replace the shutters with blinds, in the kitchen.

UPDATED:  March 23 2015

Since my original review, Mark, the sales person from The Blind Guy, contacted me.  He said he wanted us to be happy with our choices in window coverings, and he offered to replace the four shutters in the kitchen with blinds.  He said we could have them at cost.  They are committed to customer service, and they do not want unhappy customers.  I was amazed that they cared!  I really appreciated the phone call and we made an appt for Mark to come out and measure the windows for blinds. 

Mark came out and did the measuring for the blinds.  I wanted to keep the frames and remove the existing shutter panels, and install blinds into the frames, if that was possible.  Mark took a look at it and said it could be done.  I wanted to keep the frames because they're really beautiful, and dress up the windows.

On 3/18/15 an installer came out and removed the shutter panels and installed the new blinds.  I had already bought kitchen curtains for the windows, and put them up after the installer was finished.  My windows are perfect.  I am so happy.  I can see out my kitchen windows easily, and I just feel more comfortable with the blinds.  Our kitchen windows are the only windows facing the street.  We are saving the shutter panels.  If we ever decide to sell the house we'll put the shutter panels back in, which will increase the value of the house. 

The shutters in the three bedrooms are wonderful.  Two of the windows face west, and get the afternoon sun.  It's really great to be able to control the light coming into the rooms, and it's going to make a big difference during the summer months.

The people we had contact with at The Blind Guys were very professional, friendly, and did a good job.  We would use them again.  Many thanks to The Blind Guys!
