"Carolyn is a gifted designer and manager. She took charge of our project from measuring, blueprints, selection of materials, appliances, permitting. She managed her expert contractors through the construction and installation processes. Our kitchen, living room and balcony are designed with indoor/outdoor living and greatly enhanced views, including the use of LaCantina Door Panels and custom windows. We are absolutely impressed and overjoyed with the outcome. Steve & Jim Laguna Beach"

"I had contact with both Chris Payne, owner, and Grady Moore, Dir. of Business Development. I worked mostly with Grady. He always responded promptly to phone messages and e-mails. The workers came when promised. Grady was on-site every day. There was some fine tuning needed at completion and Grady finished the work to my total satisfaction. There are a lot of companies out there, so I did careful comparison shopping - everything from length of nails (some companies use staples) to tightness of thatch at grass base. They have the best product and terrific customer service."

"Kitchen renovation is extremely stressful, and trying to manage everything can feel overwhelming. We were very fortunate to work with our amazing designer, Dylan, he was truly the one positive experience in the entire process. From start to finish, he guided us through every step of the design, helping us overcome challenges that came up during construction and making the space look even better than we imagined. We couldn’t have done it without his help. Thank you, Dylan, from the bottom of our hearts for your support, patience, and care throughout the project."

"Nick and team did a fantastic job from the initial idea sketch all the way through execution. I couldn’t be happier. Vega Landscape was definitely the more expensive quote but I believe you get what you pay for and it was definitely worth it! I have a beautiful usable space."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Regular meetings, reviewing drafts, and providing input on materials help align the project with your vision.

Yes, integrating sustainable practices and energy efficiency into plans is common.

You'll find Arts and Crafts homes across the country in varying styles. On the East Coast, bungalows and Tudor Revivals fill the Boston area through New Jersey. In the West, Mission-style homes incorporate terracotta shingles, white stucco siding, and rounded archways.

Federal and Colonial architecture are similar in that they both appear mostly utilitarian and symmetrical, but Federal architecture is a bit more ornate. Federal design often includes decorative palladium windows, window lintels, and, sometimes, columns surrounding a more decorative portico. Inside, Federal architecture is set apart by its centrally-located oval room. Additionally, Federal homes tend to have brick facades, whereas Colonial homes more often have wood siding.

The process typically takes 2-6 weeks, depending on the project size and level of customization.
