"Dave was a game changer for us. I had previously hired a different architect, who would miss deadlines and take multiple days to deliver the updates to the design. Now working with O'Brien Custom Home Designs it has been a 180-degree change. Dave delivers or beats his target delivery dates, provided a very sound plan for the home (he improved the previous architect's work) -- both exterior and interior look great for our lake home. I plant to hare O'Brien Custom Home Designs for my next project. I highly recommend."

"I've worked with many architects and David Lawson outshined them all. He asked great questions and was not bossy and did not try to push his ideas on me. But a lot of his ideas were fantastic. Nice having an idea person to really help us move along and get a great home plan."

"I have to give him an A as while his pricing was not very competitive (he was about $20% above the other bids), he was very responsive and came out to see the property within a day or two of talking to him. In our case, we had already worked with a design architect to create our plan so it was possible for someone to come out and give you a proposal ( most companies try and lock you in by refusing to give you a price until they have created the design). In our case, we had the design and tree requirements to support it, so it was relatively easy for someone to give you a quote. (BTW, designs cost between $200-400 for a full backyard and most companies will throw in if you go with them)
When came out, he took the time to listen to what we wanted to do and provided his proposal to me in 24 hrs, which in this industry is impressive.  He seems like a very likable guy and was professional when he came to meet with me.  When I reviewed his proposal, he was fairly competitive on most things, but had several other fees in there for bed prep (which was triple most people's) and haul-away, which in this case there really wasn't anything haul away as our backyard is somewhat of a barren wasteland right now. Had his pricing been competitive, I would have very likely used him. The only reason I saw that I would like not use him in the future is that I would not likely waste his time asking for a quote as he is used to higher margins that I want to pay.
He is a no-nonsense guy who doesn't do the high pressure sale and definitely knows what he's talking about so I rate him accordingly.

"Lon Pinckard just finished a big job for me. I couldn't be more pleased. Drainage, driveway, fence, replace railroad tie retaining wall with stone, flagstone patios, and landscape all around. Lon and Sandy (landscape architect) were involved each step of the way, and made sure the job was completed to our satisfaction. He and his team are excellent."

6 employees. Uses Licensed subs for irrigation, lighting, brick work and carpentry. You plant around your design, not design around your plants. Confusing? Upon meeting with a new client, most people will typically tell me of their favorite plant(s). Putting plants in the lead position of the design process will guarantee you a landscape that resembles your neighbors and every other house on the street and across the community. It’s like determining the colors you will use in your new house and you haven’t yet designed the house!\n\nLike colours, plants are a medium. You must provide context in order to give meaning. This is the hardscape or ‘bones’ referred to in garden literature. Be it a simple graveled path, a grouping of boulders, or obedient deference to existing topography, this is what will provide year-round interest. It is also the framework that will suggest and therefore help you choose which plants and their placement. The end result is an aesthetic and harmonious integration of hardscape and softscape elements.\n\nThe Walkabout Way acknowledges the on-site environmental realities (ecozone, drainage, sun, shade etc..) and integrating these along with the clients desired outside intentions (active/passive use) as the basis for formulating a design theme. The end result is a naturalistic approach that is environmentally and ecologically sensitive, yet aesthetically pleasing regardless of the season.
