Energy-Efficient Homes Services in Montrose, VA

“There are many architects and builders but few who have the skill, experience, and vision to design and build a green house. Looking for a modern architect in the area, we found Patrick's website and we got to know him before we hired him. We liked him immediately and never "interviewed' anyone else. We never regretted it. He shared our desire to build lightly, letting the surroundings influence the design and materials. He artfully brokered the inevitable differences of opinion between husband and wife, and we enjoyed the consultative process of working out the design together as a small team. After the design was complete, we were happy to have him build the house, too, which has worked out beautifully. On complicated custom houses, there are many situations where unforeseen circumstances or questions arise, and things move more quickly and smoothly when the person responsible for constructing the house is the same person as the person who envisioned it. The house is not yet complete, but we are currently on budget (more or less) and the product is a work of art. I have suffered through many residential and commercial building projects over a lifetime, and this is the first one I've enjoyed. If you're looking for a person with the sophistication and experience to design and/or build a complicated "dream house," Patrick is your man. And if you're not sure, ask him to take you to our house and show you what he is capable of creating. I think you'll come away a believer!”

“Brian was a pleasure to work with. He made our ideas and wishes come to life when designing our new home. He responded timely to emails and other communication! Would highly recommend Cadence Architecture to help design your home.”

“We hired Allan Phillips to help us draw up a needed addition on a property we were purchasing, and he took our ideas and desires and put them down on paper turning them into a great possibility that complimented the existing home beautifully, and included ALL of what we needed plus some! We would definitely recommend him and his company to anyone in need of architectural services.”

“What they did was beyond our expectation.They spent a lot of time on truly understanding our lifestyle and needs, and introduced the “aging-in-place” concept. The scheme looks beautiful, detailed, and innovative.They did a good job on bringing out the potential of our house, which has great views to the lake. The new great room looks spacious and full of natural light. As their concept proposed, it will be vacation at home for us. Yang and Suping are delightful to work with. They are good at communicating their design. Since I’m not familiar with reading drawings, they used 3d models/images to help me understand, even a VR glass to help me visualize the rooms.”

“Bob designed our home. After 10 years I still love it and can't imagine living any where else. He turned our 1960 Tri-level into an open , full of character timeless home. His vision was unbelievable . The roof was taken off and we have an upper deck off our bedroom. We have vaulted ceilings, mahogany alcove bench in bedroom too. I could only load 4 pictures so I did one wall of the kitchen, the stone fireplace in family room open to kitchen, the hallway and sinks in master bathroom. Even though it cost a little over $100,000, the value increased over $200,000. I don't have a McMansion looking house like all others with no hardwood on 2nd floor and no laminate and vinyl cheap stuff.Please forgive the mess and lack of decorating skill,but here are some pictures.”

“Most if not all projects have problems. Working with the professionals at Studio Z gives you a feeling of comfort, knowing that solutions are their best attributes. I would recommend this firm for any architectural project. Thank you Rick Pilgrim Asset manager, plentura development”

“Mark Spangler designed two homes and an addition for me and did an excellent job on all three. Mark has the unique ability to listen to our ideas and transform them into a great design. His plans are original looking and they are consistent in style. I would recommend him for any size home or addition.”

“Chris is an excellent architectural designer that we use often to remodel houses for sale. He can visualize changes to the floor plan and quickly give you possible options. I️ highly recommend using him for your next remodel or addition.”
