“My wife and I decided to explore a major renovation of our house. Hiring Pethel Designs to help us begin the process was a great decision! Hunter Pethel was extremely creative in different designs and approaches that gave us options to consider to accomplish our goals. We wanted a top quality design and value. We got both. Hunter gave us some more economical options that did not compromise the quality of the final product. With his many years of experience, Hunter introduced us to options we would have never thought of. The experience was outstanding and we would highly recommend Pethel Designs for your next project, whether a renovation or new construction.”

“Chavo Patino amazed my wife and I with the creativity and intelligence he put into designing our dream home. We knew he could design something modern and simple, but after we moved in, we then saw how well all the pieces fit together. Having a lake in your back yard naturally makes this house relaxing and comfortable. At the same time, he found a way to fit three bedrooms, 2 ½ baths, plus an office into 2200 sq feet without losing that sense of comfort. We wanted an open living, dining, kitchen area, but the dramatic open space floored us when we saw the finished space. He could see the value of arranging the food prep area so that it faces the back of the house. I never get tired of that view while preparing dinner. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are on the opposite side of the house from the master suite which gives us some added privacy and quiet. He spent time to look closely at the topography of the building site so that the design worked with the land, not against it. The downward slope gave us a chance for a walk out basement, but he could see the opportunity to make that into a finished basement gym with windows and a separate door to the lake. He extended the roof line to cover the first 6 feet of the rear deck area. This gives us plenty of sun in the morning, while offering outdoor natural shade in the hot afternoons. This little added design idea also saves 20% or more off our cooling and heating bill. Chavo’s design process was very helpful. He started with the elements we wanted in this house and turned those into early concepts. I am not sure if he can do this will all his clients but he drove up to Virginia to meet with us to go over these drafts in person. It really helped us to get to the next step which was to combine elements of different concepts. After a number of edits and a few skype meetings, we had the final plan. I can’t recommend Chavo enough. He comes from a family of architects which was clearly evident over time. He knew how to work with the local engineering company and our builder to make sure our ideas were not edited out due to local codes or “we usually don’t do it this way”. If you want a custom home to truly reflect who you are, Chavo will be patient, very responsive and I am sure he will amaze you as well with the final product. Seeing is believing so I hope he posted some photos of the house on this website. Pete MacMullan”
