TESTIMONIALS

Mike and the experience he provides is outstanding. He was so patient with my husband and I as we tried to figure out and understand what it entailed to do a renovation project for the first time. He listened to us and came up with several different options for us to review taking into consideration, our goals, budget and the aesthetics of the final project. His eye for design and attention to every detail - how he could really improve the flow, function and value of our home was impressive and the outcome of the plans was better than we could have imagined. He patiently and thoroughly explained all of it in depth and is always very responsive to text and phone calls to answer any follow up questions we have. He even helped put us into contact with some trustworthy contractors to get quotes which was very helpful. For various reasons we decided to phase our project and he has helped us to think about the most logical way to phase the project and been available to us for assistance throughout the entire journey including offering to discuss the pieces directly with our contractors. We feel so grateful to have found Mike and I could not speak more highly of our experience working together. We plan to use him for all architectural projects we want to do in the future without question.Read More

My husband and I decided we wanted to build an in-law apartment. We hired Mike to be the architect. Mike had so many great ideas for the in-law. We talked about using part of the existing home, Mike came up with a much better solution, one that saved us money and it was more isolated for privacy. It was also builder friendly. It looks like its part of the house. Mike was also conscientious about getting the plans to us and explaining the work that was going to take place. Mike is a trustworthy and dependable with great ideas. We are thrilled with the work that he did.Read More

We've worked with Michael on two projects. He is responsive, professional, timely, and creative. He takes the time to listen to what we need and what we want and he offers suggestions on ways to improve our projects. He is client-focused. On top of that, Michael is easy to work with, friendly, and down to earth. We would not hesitate to engage him on future projects.Read More

I found Mike through a contractor doing a home remodel in Greenwich, CT. Looked at a couple of other homes he had designed and hired him to draw plans for a small cape cottage we had purchased as a weekend country home. His design ideas were flawless and we loved the house so much, we moved to our new home full time. He is an extremely talented architect who can think outside of the box and interprets your thoughts and turns them into reality…. Have recommended him to clients as well.Read More

Starting using Michael and his design skills in 1996 and now, 2022, again employing him. He is a talented architect with a warm personal touch. He seems more like a close friend or family member when he is employed to design new construction or renovation. He has numerous contacts in the industry to share with his clients. So, it is easy to give him the 5* rating. Ron and VickiRead More
