SORA design

The Sora design team was amazing to work with. They listened to what we were wanting and helped us with our kitchen remodel process. They were able to make magic of what my husband and I had in mind and brought it together to create the perfect kitchen for our family. Everything from giving us multiple different layouts and options to getting samples and figuring costs of materials. They are reasonable and wonderful to work with. With all of this, they are truly good people who just want to help people have a place that fits them. I couldn’t imagine this process with out them and would recommend their services to anyone.

As General Contractor and being in this business for more than 25 years, SORA design are amongst the best. Seamless process every time we work together guiding to the finish line time and time again. We personally refer them all the time and we have yet to have an unhappy customer. Hats off to Akiko Arai and her firm!

Akiko and Katsuya Arai of Sora Design (sora-design.info) are incredibly easy and most pleasant to work with. We are currently planning a long-overdue, major master-bath remodel. Sora Design were quick to respond to our outreach on Houzz, and they were able to take our initial inspirational images and aspirational descriptions and transform them through a short series of follow-up consultation meetings into a design that will work within our space and budgetary constraints. Their architectural expertise has allowed us to quickly narrow down our feasible options and still realize our vision. Amazing! What we most liked is that we and they are totally synched in how we approach the design process. We first design for the ultimate desired outcome, and then they thoughtfully present us with a range of cost reducing options that we can exercise should that become necessary. If you are planning a residential project large or small, you would do well to contact Sora Design (sora-design.info) for a proposal.

I have collaborated on several architectural projects with the team at SORA design for many years. They have proven to be exceptionally detail oriented, intelligent, resourceful, dependable and above all excellent designers.

We're happy to come to know SORA design. The architects are very knowledgeable, professional and detail-oriented. They listened to and considered all our ideas about the project, made clever suggestions, patiently went with us through several rounds of improving the design until we all arrived at the one we absolutely loved. They addressed all our questions / concerns both big and small in a very responsive manner. It was great to work with them.

We are thrilled to give our highest praise and recommendation for SORA design. SORA is designing our new home (now in construction phase). We’ve been delighted at every turn, in particular by their thoughtful and beautiful designs, eagerness to understand the needs of their client, their constant availability, and communication. My wife and I started the design process with distinct preferences in the style of home we wanted to build (traditional vs modern). SORA skillfully helped us explore compromises and organically find common ground. We ended with a design that we’re both excited about. SORA design stands apart in ownership. We found that whenever we had a concern or something on our minds, no matter how big or small, it automatically became important to the architects. We always felt heard, and SORA design went the extra mile for us countless times. Their work speaks for itself. I encourage you to browse their renderings and other materials. I’m certain SORA design will delight you as they have us.

We have been honored to work with SORA design for a new home build. We have found the team to be responsive, detailed and fully accessible to our team. We are excited to partner with them and look forward to more collaboration in the future!

Working with Sora Design has been a great experience. We hope to work with them on other future projects.
