I highly recommend avoiding Kramer Architects. We had a horrible experience on a large expensive addition project where Mark Kramer did not listen to our requests for the project and then disappeared once work started. In hindsight there were major design flaws. These actions ended up costing us significantly more to get the project to a less than ideal outcome, which still has not achieved our goals. This would be a zero stars if that was an option.

Mark was very professional from the start to the finish. He had great ideas and made sure that we were treated fairly by the contractor throughout. Wish we had enlisted an architect for our other two home improvement projects - I can see now how even our finished basement could have come out much better with his insights and experience.
