About us

I have been a licensed architect since 1988, practicing in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In 2005, I launched my own firm with emphasis on single family and multi-family residential design, commercial building design and fit-out and institutional design for public entities with a focus on administrative and justice projects. I have a wide and deep range of experience with residential, commercial and institutional clients. I work well with clients, developers, builders and construction managers. I understand the process and value of the primary project delivery methods including design-bid-build and design-build. Stylistically, my philosophy is to fit in with the local style, while maintaining integrity and fluidity of design. Architectural heroes: Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn, Frank Furness, Henry Hobson Richardson.

David was very responsive and since i knew nothing about the variance process in my town, he was able to guide me in completing the paperwork. He was also very accommodating in redoing sketches for the township. I would highly recommend him.

David is excellent! We hired him for an entire first floor renovation of our home (approx. 1,300 sq ft). He understood the vision we had for our home and made excellent recommendations that we never would have thought of. During the design phase, he pointed out ideas that would help save money but keep our vision in tack. He worked with our contractor and the township to make adjustments to the plans so everything would be up to code. He was very responsive and quick to respond to emails whenever we needed anything. I would highly recommend David for anyone that is looking to renovate!

David was very professional, responsive and personable. He made my husband and I feel like his only customers. Even with the limited space he had to work with he managed to fit everything I needed and never griped when I had to make a change. The invoice and scope of work was very detailed and specific. Plans were delivered timely and as promised. Thank you David for your great customer service, patience and willingness to look outside the box. He really didnt have much to work with and he did a great job!

In our second meeting with him to review his design proposal at the job site, when my wife was suggesting some changes and asking for his opinions, he was rude and obnoxious and thoroughly unprofessional. He was yelling at my wife and when I asked him to regain his composure, he was very belligerent. Things got so bad, I had to ask him to leave. Needless to say, we got zero value for the the deposit of $850 that we paid him. I have never had to deal with such unprofessional behavior from anyone in business in over 40 years. He has no sense of decorum. His behavior and attitude toward my wife was abhorrent.

He responded quickly to my questions, is professional and very easy to talk with. He showed up on time each visit, which seems to be a rarity these days. We are still only halfway through the process, but I would recommend him based on my experience thus far.

David was very professional and helped us not just in designing but also provided complete support during the construction of our beauty salon & spa. His prior experience in working on similar projects helped a lot. We will re-hire him for all our future endeavors. Also recommend his services to all.

David did a spectacular job. he spent am amazing amount of time and paitience with me through the design phase to the implemantation. He was outstanding with hos communication through the project - e-mailing me palns and drawins if we could not meet in person so I could look at them. he continued to be an asset through the construction process and as a refernce point after. His recommended contarctor did an outstanding job and used sub-contrcartors for som eof the work that were equally outstanding. I would not hestitate to use David again or recommend him to someone else.

My wife and I are planning on building a large deck. David has been very helpful with the planning, design and structural details of the deck. He has taken the time to visit our house and has listened to our thoughts on the deck design. David has since designed drawings of the deck and has taken the time to change some of the design as we changed our mind! Since I plan on building this deck, I asked David if the plans will be readable by a layman like myself. He said no problem. My wife and I look forward to working with David and finalizing our deck plans. Our plans have been finalized and we can't wait to build our deck! Thank you, David!
