I worked with Stefanie and our builder to design and build a unique shaped garage (had to follow the odd shape lot lines) in our back yard. Stefanie did a fantastic job coming up with a design that met all my objectives. The first comment I hear when someone new steps into the garage is “Wow! This is one of the nicest workshops we’ve run across in a residential neighborhood! Thanks again Stefanie, you made my man cave workshop a reality 😎
Response from the owner · a year ago
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! I was so excited to read about how much you're enjoying your new garage workshop.
It was truly a rewarding experience working with you and your builder to tackle the unique shape of your lot and bring your vision to life. I remember the challenges of those lot lines, but I'm so glad we were able to create a design that met all your objectives and turned into such a successful project. Hearing that "Wow!" from visitors is exactly the kind of reaction I strive for.
Creating a functional and visually appealing space, especially a "man cave" workshop, is something I'm very passionate about. I'm thrilled that I could help make that a reality for you.
Thank you again for your kind words and for trusting me with your project. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

I had the pleasure of working with Stefanie on a Commerical TI project this year and I could not be more pleased with her work. From the beginning, Stefanie stood out by her attention to detail and quick responsiveness, as she was able to address all of my concerns, and she continued that responsiveness throughout our entire project. That is something I really appreciated, in addition to her well detailed work and over all professionalism. She is a very knowledgeable architect who can support you in a wide range of residential and Commerical projects, and is extremely easy to work with. I would definitely recommend her services.
It was great working with you, thank you Stefanie!
