“Dennis Thompson worked closely with us to design a new home on our land, after our house was destroyed by a wildfire. He was sensitive and cognizant of the emotional factors going into the design process, given our circumstances. Dennis took us through the entire process, from design concept through City approval, from choosing a contractor through managing on-site building issues. Ultimately, we ended up with a beautiful, energy efficient home.”

“Mary Vanderveen is a meticulous designer with a special idea for materials that always combine smoothly in color and texture. Her designs are never overwhelming to the eye nor to the room. She is able to professionally revamp both the small residential bathroom or a growing professional business. Best of all, Mary is never a pain to do business with, which is why we as a company welcome her presence in our showroom and love to help with the next project.”

“The process of designing and building a home on the west coast while we lived on the east coast would have been a challenge. Tom made it easy and fun. He was available whenever we needed him throughout the design and build process. Best of all, Tom is now one of our good friends.”

“I have worked with Brett on several projects over 25 years. I am a general contractor and have worked with a lot of designers and architects. Brett is one of the few architects that is easy to work with. He listens very well and provides solutions that meet the budget and the aesthetic at the same time. He understands construction which is very important. Many architects just like to draw pretty pictures and have no idea how they are put together. Brett is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience and is good at guiding clients through the design and construction process. He is one of the best.”

“Skedio Studio’s team was very professional through out the whole process. They made sure we were satisfied with the plan and that the City approved everything.”

“Our firm collaborated with NMA Architects on a large scale project for over 7 years. In every aspect, they exceeded our expectations, and were in our opinion, ideal creative partners for this project. We look forward to the opportunity to work together again soon.”

“I interviewed a number of architects and talked to a couple of references before selecting David Ferrin and Arketype Architects for my rather different project, that of building a two story home on top of an existing stone warehouse, providing three floors plus roof-deck in a tight urban setting. Before I selected him, I was impressed with his "can-do" attitude and examples of some of his thinking outside-the-box. The design work I saw was classy and much of it different. His use of materials tends towards the green but when price becomes an issue, he will demur or come up with an alternative. David is quietly spoken and his demeanor is thoughtful, low-key and confident. The project is still 12 months away from completion (I'm writing this in May 2015 ) so it isn't possible to give you final comment but to this point I have been VERY happy with his work. He is quick to effect changes and is very thorough with his plans, attention to detail (according to several other architects and planners) being well above what is normally produced. I swear this attention to detail is what allowed our plans to get through to permitting in so few hearings.”
