About
I create an atmosphere of comfort, trust, openness, and communication which translates into a functional, creative, economical architectural design
I enjoy meeting all walks of life, their viewpoints, their likes and dislikes, the different design ideas, brainstorming sessions, creating imagery for the clients' project......to see the end result both graphically and the construction process.

We are just starting our relationship, but I inherently trust Arnold to do the right thing thing and present options for me to consider. From what I have seen, he is detailed, knowledgeable and has a good heart. Something you look for in a partner.
My project may not be the most ground-breaking, but I feel confident that it is handled as such.

Very responsive, patient and listened to our needs. Cared about a good product that served our project well rather than just getting it done. Would recommend highly!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I use a 'sliding scale' system of pricing based on square footage. The smaller the area the greater the cost per sq. ftg. The larger the area the cost per sq. ftg. decreases.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first step is to meet with the client to discuss their design ideas and scope of project, upon a mutual understanding, then provide a written quote, preliminary plans, and exterior elevations for client discussion. Upon final approval of preliminary plans, then develop construction plans for permitting.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I attended Lawrence Tech University and graduated with an architectural degree. I am a prior Licensed Builder, and in my 30 years of experience have completed a variety of architectural projects ranging from single family to multi-family to commercial, industrial, hospitality projects.
