Shannon Taylor Scarlett, Architects

Shannon Scarlett was our architect on our most recent major renovation project. We used her in the past and decided to use her again with no hesitation. This project was a major challenge on a Large Mansard Victorian two family home, built in 1873 whereby our wish was to turn around the apartments instead of being one above the other, to one in the front and one in the back with a brand new two car garage. Shannon made our wish come true. In the preliminaries stages, we met twice a month and then more often to review the drawings. Shannon suggestions, with our input made it all possible. Shannon not only was able to get the Town of Watertown to approve the project, when we had changes along the way, she was there helping us with contractors and the local inspectional services. Shannon was flexible with our demands and was aware of the town requirements and set backs and all other historic issues. As I said we used her in the past, and went back hiring her for our current project. Feel free to contact me, at email belowif you want to discuss further

Shannon was very helpful with my interior remodel project. I highly recommend her work to any homeowner. She always was and top of my necessities. and also cover all my expectations.

Shannon has worked with us to detail additions to our home in Wellesley. She has been a pleasure to work with offering a creative professional product and a valued guide to our addition ideas.

Love the work that Shannon does. Seen many of her projects that they are very eye catching and modern. She mixes old with the new in a very tasteful manner.

For the last 16 months my husband and I have been working with Shannon on building our dream home. Shannon's taste is flawless and her ability to design what her client conveys is extremely impressive. Shannon believes in modeling the home around the practicality of her client's everyday use. Her ideas helped my husband and I decide what is really important to us as far as function and what details we can't live without. Shannon's knowledge is top notch and this is vital when planning for construction. Her knowledge of our town's building codes, our challenging structural design, and the latest trends in home renovations has helped the process remain smooth and painless. The level of detail that she put into her drawings was so exciting to see on paper and now in person. Our home has 3 sharp gables on the front and the moldings and the trim stands out from the street and always makes our neighbors stop and take it all in. Her details aren't over powering. They spread out to maximize the perfect amount of curb appeal. Our project has been somewhat challenging for our builder due to our family living through the extensive renovation. Shannon has been vital during this stage. She has helped organize a plan so that the construction can run smoothly without any major disturbances and most importantly she has helped us stay on budget. We would strongly recommend Shannon as a designer, planner, and project manager. I can't stress enough how important it is to have her heavily involved during the construction process. She will always have her client's best interests in mind and will make sure the job is completed correctly and efficiently.

Shannon Scarlett provides extremely high quality service, including great ideas and concepts, beautiful designs, and wonderful design details. In addition, she is extremely pleasant to work with. We recommend her service without any reservation.

Our project required an objective and creative approach to make a more efficient use of our space but to maintain as much as the old-style charm of the home. Shannon definitely provided us options that met our needs and then worked closely with us to fine-tune the final plans. Shannon has been very prompt and responsive with our project, which has made the process so far relatively smooth and productive. I would recommend Shannon highly.

It has been a pleasure to work with Shannon. We have completed 3 successfull projects together. She has great attention to detail. She is very professional and I hope to work with her again in the future.

I have had the unique opportunity to work with Shannon in several different roles and all with similar outcomes. I have provided services for her through my own company, have hired her for services and worked with her providing services to mutual clients. In all cases I've very much appreciated her thoughtfulness, creativity and attention to detail. She is truly a pleasure to work with

Shannon Scarlett provided ideas and initial concepts for the extensive redesign of my old, small kitchen (with two ceiling heights and floor levels) and dining room. From her initial concepts and our inputs on what was important to us, she modified the concepts and prepared a detailed design for both rooms. We could not believe that we could have the remodeling that she designed! She is easy to work with and listened to our "wants". We are extremely pleased with her design, and she continues to proved support during the construction phase. Her costs were reasonable and a small part of the total project cost.
