Building Design Services in Clearwater, MN

“Chris had some really great ideas for our home remodel. She got me thinking outside the box. She is very easy to work with. I would use her again!”

“This is an amazing site. I very much enjoyed the photos of the cabins. Each of the homes are works of art. I know from experience that Stephen meets deadlines and comes close on budgets. Stephen's knowledge enables him to create not only sensible, workable, and creative spaces but also a home that is not only unique but expresses who you are. Stephen is the architectural designer you want.”

“Anthony at ADS Designs was a pleasure to work with through our house design process. He was very professional and met all our aggressive timelines while offering creative solutions. We would highly recommend his services!”

“Jeff designed a new residential home with us in 2012. He worked with us to create our dream home and did a wonderful job listening to us to bring our vision to life.”

“I have hired Steve to design several of my projects and he has been nothing short of impressive. Steve is a pleasure to work with from the first time we walk onto a project until the final drawings are complete. What makes Steve different from other designers I've worked with, is that he "listens" to his customers, and asks just the right questions to make sure that his clients are getting a design with the best interests of their lifestyle in mind. Although Steve is excellent at putting your ideas into reality, his greatest feature, I think, is his creativity. When my customers don't have a lot of design ideas of their own for their project, they can sit back and let Steve do what he does best and create them a custom design from scratch. Steve is a top-notch designer; one that I recommend highly.”

“I hired Jeffrey with Inspire Architects to help me design a 3-season porch. He meet with my clients, answered all their questions.

“We just completed construction on our new home in the White Bear Lake, MN area. We had been looking for a tear down opportunity on a nearby lake for a couple years, and when a property presented itself, we quickly sprung into action. We have identified our builders in advance (Sustainable9) and based on our vision for the home, they introduced us to Unfold Architecture. Their previous projects, both out West and here in MN, fit the mountain modern/Minnesota modern style we were seeking. From the get go, the team at Unfold were amazing partners. Through conversations and inspiration photos we shared on Houzz, they took our long wish list (maximized lake views, lower level walkout, modern but welcoming, mid-century influences) and designed the perfect house. Their houses are striking architecturally but also extremely livable and functional. They use state of the art CAD models to help you envision what the home would look like. It’s remarkable how close the house turned out in respect to the early renderings. And throughout the process, they were collaborative partners, incorporating feedback from both us and our builders, presenting us initially with several options and then honing in on our chosen design. We could not be more pleased with the process (even in the midst of Covid challenges) or the end result, which is truly the dream home we envisioned.”

“My husband and I are working with Jon to design our forever home. We are about 90 percent through design development. Jon has been great throughout the process. I really feel like we’re a team and he’s been able to develop our ideas into a home that fulfills all our needs and embodies our values and aesthetics. We want a home that is healthy and functional but not oversized. Jon is very knowledgeable about healthy building materials and was able to design within our principles and I feel we have everything we need and more. The design is efficient and every inch is intentional. I am so happy with our plan so far and highly recommend Jon. He’s professional, creative, and incredibly detail-oriented.”

“We've had the honor of working with Sharratt Design & Co. recently on a few phenomenal renovation and new construction projects. From a design perspective, they are proficient in any style you can think of. From cottage, to Colorado lodge, to Mediterranean, to contemporary, they can do it all. Most importantly, they are fun to work with in a collaborative team setting, and always have their clients' best interests in mind. They have a wonderful staff, and everyone from Mike Sharratt himself, to the people who answer the phones, are warm, inviting, and accessible throughout the project. We look forward to many more projects with Sharratt Design & Co, and we highly recommend you speak to them if you're looking to remodel an existing home, or build new. John R. Kraemer”

“Jackie was great and helped us through a very challenging project. Our remodel is amazing and we've got lots of comments on the design.”
