When we moved into our home we knew it had potential, but the out-dated kitchen and flow wasn’t meeting our day-to-day needs five years later. Jereme / DII Architecture renovated and completely transformed our main living spaces, including kitchen, living room, family room, powder room and dining room. Jereme listened to our needs and ideas, and came back with a design that exceeded our expectations. We opened up walls and ceilings to make the spaces feel modern, bigger and MUCH more functional. He was with us throughout the entire process, in constant communication and even made last minute changes when requested. The result is a completely custom, beautiful space that not only accommodates our family of 5, but makes hosting large gatherings so much more seamless. We get so many compliments on the space, and would be happy to recommend Jereme and DII Architecture to others.

We were interested to have a master bath and closet addition built above our garage and contacted DII for a proposal. Our house was built in the 1940s and we wanted to ensure that the exterior would be seamless with the original architecture. The amount of buildable space is small, but Jereme and his team came up with an outstanding floor plan that exceeded our expectations to include not only the bath and closet, but a small office as well. We greatly appreciate the open line of communication with the DII team during the design phase, and the result is a set of construction drawings and 3D renderings that leave us very excited for the build phase. We’re confident that DII’s recommended construction teams will build out the addition skillfully, with minds towards excellent craftsmanship and budget consciousness.

Jereme / DII Architecture did a fantastic job designing a new open floor plan for our family room, including a custom built wet bar. His design and attention to detail surpassed our expectations, while his project and relationship management skills made for a very smooth experience. Jereme really is a unique combination of both artist and technical architect/builder. We found him to be a consummate professional and we would highly recommend him for any renovation or new build.

We worked with Design Insight for a couple projects and the outcome of each one was outstanding. Great attention to detail and follow ups. I recommend this company to anyone who wants to turn their home into a work of art.

Design Insight did a great job with shaping wonderful spaces for us - creating two beautiful bathrooms and restoring a bedroom. Jereme's architectural work was inspired, and he was supportive, patient, and communicative through the process.

We completed a kitchen and dining room renovation with Design Insight this January (2015) on our 1940s home.  



The process started with a review of the space and idea discussions back in Summer of 2013 when we first moved into the house.  He was thorough in his overview of the property and we talked ideas and primary concerns.  After the meeting, we decided to get designs drawn up and get on our way to making the dream a reality.  Jereme presented 3 different and innovative design options that met our primary criteria, but gave us different pros/cons to consider around cost and/or design.  The designs were also accompanied by an estimate with specific line items/materials incorporated (plus some options if we wanted custom molding, upgraded appliances, etc.).  We noodled and saved (and also had two other kitchen designers draw up their ideas) and finally to the plunge in November to start our 10 week renovation process.  



The idea of actually starting a kitchen renovation is scary, but the process actually went well.  Both my husband and I remarked at how clean the crew maintained the worksite and how they paid attention to keeping the rest of our home as operational as possible.  Jereme himself was super attentive and provided great communication.  We handled the majority of our daily communication through email (preferred, as we both work and we could answer quickly) and he was personally on-site several days each week.  Jereme gave us practical advice where necessary if it involved saving time/costs and was a sleuth at securing the best costs and presenting options for the various design decisions.  That helped us focus on "high payoff" items vs getting dragged down into the minutia.  We had complete trust in him.  



The build itself went pretty smoothly.  The skilled laborers were professional and seemed to take pride in their work.  After 6 months of daily cooking and weekly entertaining, the craftsmanship looks just like Day 1.  As for our day-to-day general contractor, John, he was just ok.  If Jereme had not been as great at communicating and making sure the job site looked great, we might have rated the overall effort differently because of that factor.  John seemed to stop by when he could and didn't seem to have the empathy/follow-through when we could see that the timing was going to run over.  



At the end, the outcome is absolutely beautiful.  Of course we were over a bit on budget, but within reason and it was largely our changes (went with high end appliances and required additional electrical work or decided to change from stainless to panels).  What they say is true -- any single change after a design is set can have little repercussions.  Make your decisions up front!  We also went over our time estimate by a couple of weeks due to Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Years holidays but ultimately couldn't be happier with the results.  The space is phenomenal for our family of four and expertly designed for our lifestyle and aesthetics.  I think it is a kitchen that will stand the test of time.

Jereme met with us to discuss our ideas, used his own vision and creativity to suggest improvements, and provided drawings so that we could visualize the item in our home. The projects are always a "design in progress", and that allows for a perfect fit! We already have many ideas for future projects and will definitely call DII!! Another note ... Jereme can be trusted. He spent many days in our home without us, and he was always punctual, professional and very tidy! To put it in perspective, we gave him a key to our condo!!
