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.
