Mark Beck and I have collaborated successfully on projects where the client's needs are always the highest priority. He listens carefully and reaches for exemplary design alternatives at all times. His designs are sensitive to the environment and his contemporary homes lend balance to the surrounding gardens. Attention to the structural integrity of his buildings produces great results. Mark is a genius at bringing natural light into interior spaces.

Mark Beck Associates can be counted on to help any person design and implement either a total house construction, an addition, or renovation. Mark brings a thoughtful approach to space, with function and clean lines as vital as overall space. He is mindful of conservation, and creative ways to create space without adding unnecessary square footage. Most importantly, he listens to client ideas, goals, and tastes and is a terrific partner in this way as an architect. He works efficiently and is cost effective. We built our family home with Mark Beck Associates in Maryland in the late 1980s and have since added an outside wrap around porch Beck designed in 2012. We originally selected his firm because of their use of passive solar design, and sensitivity to the environment. This awareness is a great addition to any construction design project undertaken today.

Has designed three houses for us. The first was built into t he south wall of the Greenspring Valley. It was a difficult build and he did a marvelous job, including overseeing t he contractor. The second home was a remodel of a very old house with the addition of a master bedroom suite. Again, he designed, including interior design ideas, and oversaw the construction of what became a showplace. Our current home is a townhouse in which Mark redesigned the interior including making room for an elevator, adding skylights to open the interior to more light.

Mark designed a large addition to my home. I did not want it to be "typical", and I had an idea in my head that Mark had to "pull" out and put to paper. It was fabulous to say the least! All aspects were dealt with in a professional manner, including the structural engineering. I highly recommend Mark Beck for anything from a small addition to a large project. I am confident that others will find his work to be spectacular!
