Custom Build Home Professionals in Lake Cormorant, MS

“My wife and I could not be happier than we are with the work John Jones and his office did on the renovation of our mid-century modern house. They were very sensitive of our desire to re-make the house a true reflection of the original architect's vision (which had been clouded by numerous changes), while improving the space planning to better fit our life style. John was always accessible, patient, and receptive to our input and feedback. He intuitively understood what was really important to us, improved on the ideas we gave him, and diplomatically steered us away from decisions that were not true to the overall vision or impractical. John's work for us transcended craft and truly became art. Besides exceeding our expectations for the project, he has been recognized by his peers in the AIA for "The elegance and simplicity with which they followed through to the rejuvenation of this house is worthy of commendation." He was also awarded the Fay Jones Award for this project. I can honestly say that we are entirely satisfied with John's work. He has our highest recommendation.”

“very friendly and great service. Had some woodwork that needed to be done quickly and he got it done before i even expected him to.”

“We realized early in the process of building our ultimate dream home, the architect selection would be key to the success of our vision. We needed a special architect to design a home in Nashville in a new development with many restrictions.Once we met with Carson Looney we knew we had found the match for our working relationship. He is professional, visionary, creative, experienced, positive, and meetings were a pleasure. From the first meeting where we expressed our needs to the completion of the home, he took our wishes and turned them into architectural plans. He was well spoken and a gentleman in design review meetings with developers. After a year of living in the home we continue to be pleased with every detail he incorporated into the design. Early in the construction process as we interviewed builders we found they were amazed at the quality and details in the construction drawings and specifications. They said they had never seen such detailed drawings for residential construction. Carson Looney of LRK truly made the designing of our home a wonderful experience and we continue to recommend him highly! Beginning of project: February 2014… Completion: January 2016”

“Mark McClure provided plans for a remodel which included a laundry room/mudroom and two bathrooms as well as a screen porch addition for our home. He was extremely easy to work with and we LOVE the design. The porch is exactly what we had ever dreamed of including a sitting area with fireplace, dining area, and a grilling area. Everyone who sees it loves it! The overall design is very unique and fits perfectly with our existing 1930s Old English style home. We highly recommend McClure Architecture!”

“Working with Brad Shapiro was the best money I spent in the whole process. We used Brad from start to finish, not just to draw the plans and hand to the builder. He helped us create the vision for our custom home, take the vision to a concept stage, get the concept on paper, modify it on the fly to accommodate our changing thoughts or to add exciting new direction and details we hadn't considered. From there he worked seamlessly with us and our builder on every phase to complete the construction in a way that held true to the original vision and resulted in a home second to none. If you want a firm that is easy to work with and has you and your family's best interest in mind, not their own, and you want a close, personal, working relationship with your architect, Shapiro & Company is the preeminent choice.”

“Amy was a dream come true when I found her to help with our total house renovation and remodel. She is very organized, wonderful on e-mail and text (critical for this working girl at a computer all day), never afraid to speak her mind (good when working with contractors) and has wonderful taste and ideas. She can help with everything from furniture placement to paint colors to bathroom tile to light fixtures and everything in between. She is also artistic and can draw ideas for custom cabinetry and other special projects. She took charge when I needed her to and let me be involved when I had opinions. She is truly a professional and a joy to work with. She has a wonderful eclectic style that can combine traditional with contemporary with fun! She really knows her stuff, and I never hesitate to recommend her for small or large projects.”
