"I recently hired G&L Design Building and Landscape for a major outdoor project, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and truly impressive. Dror, the owner, is a visionary. His attention to detail, creativity, and commitment to quality were evident in every phase of the project. He took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life even better than I imagined. His team built a stunning retaining wall, installed lush, vibrant turf, and laid down beautiful interlocking pavers that completely transformed the space. On top of that, they planted an incredible selection of trees and flowers that added the perfect finishing touch—absolutely breathtaking! The crew was punctual, respectful, and worked with great care and precision. It’s rare to find a team so dedicated and passionate about their craft. If you're looking for top-tier landscaping and design, look no further than G&L Design. Dror and his team are the real deal—professional, talented, and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended!"

"I have known Steven for almost twenty-five years, we have worked together on various projects in the Film/Television industry. Steven is a good designer who is versed in many styles and has a full knowledge of period details. He has a sound understanding of architecture and knows how to create useful and attractive spaces; heâ s also a genius when it comes to problem-solving. Heâ s up to date on all available materials and how best to use them. Steven has a strong work ethic and is very conscientious, and his sense of humor and light disposition puts anyone at ease; he gets along well with people. Recently, I had Steven draw up a ramp and a flight of stairs for the front entrance to our condo building, and as expected, he did a splendid job. We worked on the design together, and he prepared the working drawings and documentation. Then, he saw it through the local authorities here in Redondo Beach. I highly recommend him to solve any design requirements you might have."

"It all went well. Alisa was the designer/project manager. She had really good ideas, listened to my needs, and was very professional. The only issue was with the gazebo. I purchased a kit from another company and I had Green Republic put it together. They did not do it properly the first time, but they did a good job rectifying the situation. New parts were ordered and the gazebo was completely in a timely manner."

"Cipriano has been working with us for 7 years on maintaining our yard. He has a wealth of knowledge on plants, flowers, and trees. He landscaped our front and back yards, which included fencing and irrigation and drainage. When dealt with a problem he is able to provide workable ideas to solve it…which he has done several times for us. He has a “good eye” for what works best and a real passion for gardening and landscaping."

Architects questions, answered by experts

An architect is usually involved in the process of determining the layout and structural features and requirements of the home itself, taking into account the local codes, climate, and materials needed to make the home structurally sound. Architects may communicate more with contractors and subcontractors throughout the building process. In comparison to architects, interior designers typically focus on the aesthetics of a home interior and possibly exterior, helping the homeowner decide on color schemes, textures, and materials to incorporate into the design. 

A home elevator is a fantastic way to improve your home’s accessibility. Elevators allow anyone, even those who use wheelchairs or walkers, to safely move between floors within your home.

Dumbwaiters may allow you to move items up and down floors, and stair lifts can move people up and down, but elevators are the best option if you need space for people, their belongings, and/or mobility aids such as wheelchairs.

That said, home elevators cost more than other options, such as stair lifts. Consider your needs and your budget when deciding the best way to make your home more accessible to a person with a disability or a person who is aging in place.

A designer is a great choice for remodeling projects that don’t require significant structural work. For remodeling that includes structural work like removing load-bearing walls, altering exterior walls, or adding on a room, an architect can design and execute the renovations while ensuring your home remains structurally sound.

Yes, professionals will offer tailored solutions to fit architectural and personal style preferences.

A structural engineer's report provides a professional assessment of a property's structural condition. It typically includes an evaluation of the foundation, key structural elements like roof trusses, floor joists, studs, beams, and rafters. The report will also contain a detailed description of the engineer's findings, often supported by photographs, and provide recommendations to correct any identified issues. Depending on the scope of the inspection, it might also include an assessment of property drainage, potential issues from environmental conditions like extreme weather or tree placement, and an estimated time and cost for any recommended repairs.
