“My husband's grandfather is going to come live with us so we can give him more care as he ages. We hired Stephen to design a master bed/bath addition that has ADA-accessibility for Grandpa, as well as a kitchen & dining remodel on our small, ~925 sq ft, 2 bed, 1 bath 1935 cottage. We are still in the process of finalizing the design and are getting ready to hire a contractor for the project. Stephen has been great to work with so far. He is friendly, thorough, thoughtful and very creative. Throughout this long process of narrowing down what we want our house to be he has patiently and carefully listened to all our ideas, concerns and needs, given us great ideas of his own, answered all of our questions, and has incorporated everything we want into a ~1420 sq ft, 3 bed, 2.5 bath floor plan. We are looking forward to working with Stephen throughout this project and we are confident that with his help we will end up with a beautiful and comfortable, family friendly home.”

“I hired dJA Architects to design a 400 sqft office over an existing garage space. The were efficient, informative, and after listening to the design perimeters came up with a design that allowed for kitchenette, bathroom, office area, and meeting area. The kept me informed throughout the design and permit process. I would highly recommend.”

“I love this house every single day I'm in it. And some make a credible argument that our detached bedroom, added later, also by their design, is the best part! Inside and out flow seamlessly, which is what our psyches need. Recently we made a rookie mistake. We needed help with big plans for landscaping to be integrative with our big add-on deck. We first turned to a landscape person...FAIL. We so should have turned to Designworks first. We pitched the landscape person's lame 'concept.'; We are building to Designworks plans. (Did i mention they provided valuable consultation that added to the transformation remodel of our Boulder City desert home?)”

“I have hired RBDS, Inc (Raymond Burris) for multiple design projects. As a general contractor working on both commercial and residential projects, I need a versatile architect with the ability to provide solutions to various problems in addition to providing creative design concepts. Raymond is also cost sensitive to my client's specific needs. Raymond never overcommits, and I know he will complete a job on time the day he signs his contract. I would recommend working with him and his team.”

“The team at Popp Littrell had everything I needed to do my whole house remodel. Their attention to detail, fixture and material selection and construction administration worked perfectly to ensure a seamless process from start to finish. The end result was a product I could never have envisioned on my own. I will never consider another project without them on board.”

“Prior to deciding to design/ build my dream home, I always made it a point to stop and speak with the owners of spectacular homes in my area. I soon began to notice that Sean's name kept coming up. His architectural style seemed to compliment my taste and when I decided to start my project Sean was one of the two architects that I considered. By the time I met with Sean I had a great understanding of what I wanted my house to look like and I provided him with extensive information. Sean could have taken the easy path and given me a similar version of what I thought I liked. Instead, Sean listened to what I was describing, looked at the extensive materials I provided him with, asked many pertinent questions about my family, how we intended to use the home, how often we hosted parties etc. and came up with a completely fresh approach. When I looked at it, I instantly liked the concept and we began the process of refining the vision and I can attest that our design is truly custom made for me and my family. Sean has great listening skills and he values his clients input during the design process. I truly think that our interaction with Sean has been a positive one and the awesome design that has resulted is testament to that architect/client relationship. If your are looking for an architect with extensive experience, flair for innovative design, that will listen to you, work with you, and help you navigate and enjoy the complex design process, I highly recommend Sean Freitas for your next project.”

“Roger provided a series of archicad drawings for a Beverly Hills office building renovation that effectively recreated the space. I highly recommend Roger to anyone I know, Commercial or Residential, that is looking for an architect.”

“I am in interior designer in Sacramento and have worked with Ellis Architects. They are top notch firm. They know their stuff, are well versed in "green" construction, and really listen to what the client wants. They also honor deadlines and really understand a client's budget.”

“Mark was recommended to us by a local contractor, and he turned out to be great throughout the entire process. He did conceptual drawings and then the full set of plans for a major remodel on our Spanish revival home in 2009. We had alot of our own ideas and he respected them, all the while adding his own input and rolling it all together into a stunning final result. Most of the work centered around a kitchen remodel and adding a covered back porch and entry from the driveway. There was also a bath room laundry room, office area and dining room with a fireplace. He was very pleasant to work with (easy going, nice guy, etc) which helps enormously when you're trying to get the mental images of what you want on to paper. One thing still stands out is that his plans were so thorough and full of so many details. Very impressive work, and our project wasn't easy.”

“We loved working with Melissa and Jay-they are talented, professional, creative and thoughtful. They are hands-on, accessible, hardworking and caring. We needed an Architect who understood the needs of a growing family and who could redesign our home into something that would better reflect our lifestyle-Jay and Melissa were the perfect match. Not only were they wonderful to work with, but their passion and knowledge were incredible. It was helpful to have people who were focussed on the end result given that we needed to phase our project. Melissa and Jay were accommodating in helping to develop a master plan for the house as a whole, and then breaking the actual projects up into manageable phases. They had great suggestions for keeping the project within budget, while at the same time understanding where to splurge. Their knowledge of materials, products and construction resulted in a home that is far more wonderful than we expected. We appreciate that they were always available and willing to work at the pace that we needed, and that they were there with recommendations and options for every decision from design options, to cabinetry and hardware choices, to an excellent sense of color and material. They made the process enjoyable and easy. We look forward to working with them again when we are ready to start the next phase.”
