Masoud is an exceptionally talented architect. He is incredibly patient and always willing to work closely with clients to understand their needs. Whatever vision you have, he does his best to bring it to life in the most thoughtful and effective way.He is also someone who truly keeps his word. If he tells you a timeframe for completing a task, he delivers on it consistently and reliably.We are currently continuing to work with him on a project, and once again he has shown how much he considers the clients perspective and long-term needs.I highly recommend Masood and MAVA Architect. It has been a pleasure working with him, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration.

Thank you so much for your kind words and trust. It is always a privilege to collaborate with clients who are as engaged in the design process as you are. I'm looking forward to continuing our work together and seeing your project come to life.
FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Our fees typically run 6-10% of construction cost, depending on project scope and complexity, covering design through construction support. I charge $300 for an initial in-person site visit and feasibility assessment — this fee is credited toward your design fee if we move forward together.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
It starts with a paid site visit, where we assess the space, discuss your goals, budget, and constraints in person. From there we put together a proposal outlining scope and fees. Once we agree, we move into design development — concept sketches, revisions based on your feedback, then full construction documents and support through permitting and, if needed, construction administration. We keep clients closely involved at each stage rather than disappearing and reappearing with a finished design.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Registered Architect licensed to practice and an NCARB certificate holder. Additionally, I am a Certified Passive House Consultant (CPHC). This specialized training allows me to design high-performance building envelopes that meet strict energy codes while prioritizing sustainability, efficiency, and long-term comfort.
