“Simply put, M Architecture is the only firm we use! I can confidently say that Megan is exceptionally meticulous, wonderfully creative and extremely knowledgeable!”

““The team was professional, skilled and talented. The principals were also available to us whenever we needed them, which meant a lot to us. They were very upfront about the cost and the budget and really helped guide us through our choices. Any concerns or questions that we had were promptly answered. The Tipler Team was excellent to work with!”

“Excellent to work with Allure - I had some pretty detailed work. And I had a few revisions, as I kept changing what I was looking for, and they were patient with me. The final product was perfect - and that was due to Allure's commitment to providing exactly what I wanted. Cannot recommend them enough.”

“We just completed a major remodel on our home with Jay Baker Architects. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! The entire team was extremely professional, diligent and hard working-not to mention really nice people. They stayed true to the historical significance of the house while also making it more modern and livable. We are so pleased with the final outcome and highly recommend these amazing architects.”

“The short version of my review is: Sam is FANTASTIC, and I highly recommend him to everyone I know! The long version is.... I currently live in an old 2 bed / 2 bath 1920 Heights cottage. While preparing for the birth of our first baby, we realized that we would need more space before we had a second (at least one modern-sized closet would be nice!). Alas, our new home search began. I wanted to stay in the Heights, and after actively looking for >1 year, I realized that there was nothing on the market that would fit our growing family's needs - in our price range, that is. I eventually found a 1920 bungalow on Harvard Street in need of some serious TLC. I interviewed a few designers and decided to go with Creole. Sam (the owner) came and walked the space with us and had some great ideas already (this was all before we chose him as our designer or paid him one cent). I also liked that he lives in an old 1915 Woodland Heights home and has been in the Heights since the 1970's. He used to do combo design/build, but now focuses on just designing. He has done hundreds, if not thousands?, of home designs - both rehabilitation/additions and new construction. Over the years, I have seen his signs all over the neighborhood, and I always liked the look of his properties and his attention to historic detail vs other neighborhood designers. I also liked that he charges based on a fixed fee (per framed foot), when other designers charge by the hour. With all of the unknown costs associated with a 1920 rehabilitation, having as many costs certain vs unknown was very important to me!! Also, because Sam has been on both the design and construction side of things with these old houses for so long, he is very aware of how much building things actually costs. Therefore, it was very comforting to me that while going through the design process, if I wanted to add something, he could tell me if that was something expensive or not a big deal. As someone who's never done this before, at least I knew with eyes-wide-open what I was designing! How the process works: You do all of the design sessions with Sam - in his cool, old house, interactively sketching by-hand on see-through tissue paper, on top of an autocad drawing of the existing house (to me, this was: "practical free-handing"). This was FUN, and a very effective way to do it b/c you can easily make changes and/or start over as you discuss through making your needs/wants possible. Then he hands off the sketches to one of his 5 or 6 employees that work on autocad (they all sit in the garage apartment of the house, 15 ft away). You have one of them specifically assigned to you, which works more efficiently than not having a specific individual (another designer we interviewed said we'd have access to everyone, which sounds good in theory, but likely wouldn't have worked as well when I changed my mind back and forth more than I ever thought possible). Throughout the process, Sam was very proactive in communication and setting up design sessions with us. He always reinforced how important it was to get the designs as-right-as-possible on paper and didn't make me feel bad when I went back and forth, changing things big or small several times - "it's much easier/cheaper to change it on paper NOW than when you are under construction." He listens very well and was the perfect balance of providing suggestions and listening to our needs/wants - which resulted in something better than I ever could have ever come up with. Also, he met with us after our workday ended, which was very important when you have a small baby and both parents work! So LONG STORY LONG, I couldn't be happier with the plans of my "new" 1920 dream home! We are currently in the City permitting process and will start construction when that is done soon. I am so excited to see my dreams become a reality and have been recommending Sam to friends left and right!”

“I have used Kent & Kent on several outdoor living and homebuilding projects in the Houston area. As one of the largest outdoor living builders in the area (Texas Custom Patios), Allan has helped us out several times on projects that are very complex. Many of the projects on my site were assisted by Allan's design ideas. Can't say enough about the level of expertise and patience K&K brings to the table. I highly recommend them to anyone interested in bringing on a highly professional and experienced hands-on design firm.”

“I have worked with Lance DeGeorge on several projects over the last eight years, he is very professional and creative. His firm delivers on time, and more than what you are expecting with architectural plans and elevations. I continue to recommend Lance for work, and also have teamed with his firm for projects several times and he works well with a team as well.”

“We wanted to add on extra space to the house that we had previously renovated. We met Carlos from Ulloa designs, and as he is an Architect and builder , we were soon into the addition of about 1000 sq ft. The permitting was handled efficiently, as was the execution of all the design requests. There were a few issues with the HOA in our sub-division but that was also managed well by the builder. The final result is an interesting living room space,and a bedroom and bathroom. We would, and have, recommended Carlos to many people. He is helpful, artistic, and efficient. What more could you ask for?!”

“Our custom home is everything that we dreamed of!! John is excellent to work with and ensured that every detail was tailored to our specific taste. We are 100 % satisfied and highly recommend John Allen Design Group for anyone who’s ready for their custom dream home to become a reality.”

“The RD team are outstanding. Despite the trepidation of re-building, RD made it a true pleasure, fun and extremely rewarding. They were partners in the process, and stood by us at every turn, at every decision and they brought with them gobs of creativity, insight, ideas and professionalism. We highly recommend them.
