Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I have had quite a few projects in which when I started out, the first meeting with the clients I hear; "We have worked with a couple other architects and have met with another 7. We don't know if you can help us anymore than the others." I talk to them about what it is they are looking to achieve with their home and request a time to follow up with sketches. When I come back they are suddenly excited and they ask me "how come no one else ever did this for us?" I really try to listen to my clients and get a read on what they are really trying to get our of their home. I feel it is important to get to know the family and how they live. I will walk the site when necessary and discuss positives and negatives of the site. I like when I can work with a family and years after they are living in the home, they tell me about how much they appreciate the design of the home. I enjoy the variety of my work. Every project is a new exciting project for me. I love getting to know my clients. It is so rewarding when I work with people who listen and who are open to experiment with some new ideas. I had a person I designed a vacation home for some time ago. I had talked him into this corner window seat design. He came to me after the home was completed and told me " You know, I didn't know what you were talking about when you did that window seat, but that's the first pace people go when they come in the room."\ Hearing that after all the work that went into the design was very rewarding.,

Stephen did a great job with our Master Bedroom remodel. He presented us with several options and then worked with us to get it just as we wanted it in a very timely manner. He then worked with the City for the permits and the builder to answer all their question. I would highly recommend Stephen as he made the entire process very easy for us!! Jason

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    Architecture is a passion for me. That word is so often overused lately, but I have always felt it. I am always reading about architecture in my free time. I am always challenging myself to learn some new way to present work or keep up with the latest technology. I also keep up with current trends in construction, environmental conscious design and alternative energy sources. I do this through independent reading as well as through professional organizations.

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    The majority of my projects are residential. I do a majority of custom homes as well as remodels and additions. I focus on designing the home to the client, site and environment. Where I have shown the greatest success is designing vacation/ resort homes. My vacation homes showcase well my design philosophies. I like these homes because they are typically smaller homes and they have a lot of challenges to meet. I often bring in a different thought process to the complex homes. For instance in the mountains of Colorado, I often design the home with the living area; which is located on the main floor in a typical home, on the upper level of the home. This allows the owner to enjoy the most beautiful views of the surrounding mountain ranges while relaxing after a day of skiing or hiking. Secondary bedrooms are located on the lower floor along with a playroom. This allows the younger generation to have their own entertainment while the adults can entertain on the upper level. This concept has been very successful. My home owners constantly invite me to stay at their homes and tell me stories of how they enjoy their home.
