Architects in Cleveland, NC

“I was building a garage and needed a drawing for the county to approve my building permit. Steve was very helpful and understanding as I was trying to get things updated quickly to get the permit. Steve was able to make all the updates needed quickly and make it look exactly how I wanted for the county to approve the building permit. Very easy to work with, on time and within budget. Steve was fantastic, in fact I am planning on using him again for anther project I hope to put in later this fall or early next year.”

“Jenny Pippin of Pippin Home Designs can design anything. ...from huge homes to small ones. She listens to her clients, designs liveable homes and takes advantage of any and all views. She is highly capable, artistic and yet reasonable. She designed our home about 20 years ago and I wouldn't change a thing. It's on a sloping lot with only a small section that is flat for the house's footprint. It was a winner from plan to inception. I still love and live in every square foot.”

“We choose Rob McFarland to design our custom home plans after discussing with him what our needs were in an architect. He have already designed our first phase of plans. He has been timely in his work and responses. My husband spent 8 hours with him during the first meeting. Rob, took my husband around to inspect his work which made picking him as our architect brainless.”

“Todd Crowe is a an artist. When we started to plan a screened-in, covered porch, patio and outdoor kitchen, we thought that we knew exactly what we wanted. When he drew what I described, we weren't thrilled. He was able to offer suggestions when we weren't sure and ideas that we had never even considered. I am so thankful for his expertise! He saved us money and created a masterpiece better than we had even hoped for.”

“Roger and his team worked closely with my husband and me to create the home of our dreams. I had a vision for many years and they listened carefuly, made realistic and valuable suggestions, and drew my dream better than I could have dreamed it. The design for our lake waterfront lot was a happy blend of my desire for sleek, modern with the HOAs idea of contemporary. We fit in nicely with the neighborhood, but have sleek linear shapes and smooth textures. We were building on a very difficult lake front lot with extremely steep terrain and natural gulleys that held standing water. Roger and his team worked with engineers to make sure we lived "on the water, not in the water", creating a design that allowed the graders to push the natural running water around the house and down the hill rather than into the house. This gave us the wonderful opportunity to have access bridges rather than sidewalks - a unique and very eye pleasing addition. Throughout the design they kept true to my vision while helping us add the features necessary to age in place. It is a beautiful design and we will live here forever. Roger Layman Architecture made the experience enjoyable and low stress. We would recommend this team to anyone who wants to build heir dream home.”

“Nicole Perri was exactly what we needed for our renovation project. She listened to our ideas and created a plan that included all of our details. Nicole’s insight was so helpful as we had to make decisions along the way. Because of Nicole’s patience, creativity, knowledge, and thoughtfulness we ended up with the patio and porch of our dreams. We would definitely use Nicole for any future architectural needs.”

“Paul recently designed a Quaker Meeting House in Davidson. He worked with us to remodel an existing small house, adding 2,300 square feet in the back, including an octagonal Meeting room. Paul is easy to work with because he is positive, patient, and respectful of his clients' wishes and needs. He is approachable and open to new ideas. He is an excellent draftsman with a keen aesthetic sense. Paul has experience working with town and county officials as well as with builders and contractors. He responds quickly and thoughtfully to emails and phone calls. Paul's work is always thorough and professional.”

“Natalie was referred to me by my sister who was Natalie's kindergarten teacher. Her recommendation was on target. My project was a whole home remodel. The first time she met with me at my house she asked what I wanted, what I wanted the final result to be. Over the course of six months we met several more times, each time the ideas and drawings were updated and modified to reflect both mine and her ideas. During this process Natalie shared valuable advice on what would work or what might be better. She advised me on the possible finishes and which vendors could provide them. Natalie worked well with the contractor, answering questions and giving direction. The results were all that I had hoped. The experience was not stressful but enjoyable. I attribute this to Natalie's talents and her willingness to listen.”

“When time came to remodel my home, I had some idea of what I wanted, but could not translate it into words nor could I visualize the end result. Lodie and his team listened carefully to my wishes and expectations and provided me with plans and renderings that made my final decisions amazingly easy and fun. His handling of the bidding, pricing and contractors took all the stress out of remodeling and left me with only the pleasure and excitement of enjoying my new home. I have to say that all my future homes will include Interior Design Solutions!”
