Architects in Middle Island, NY

“Foster Architecture does beautiful and well-conceived work. His approach to problem solving is both professional and calm. My project was a renovation of a 1970’s builder’s contemporary that was visually disorganized inside and out. Foster re-organized and balanced the spaces, completely transforming the interior and exterior with small aesthetic changes throughout, while integrating the building into the surrounding land, giving the house an up-to-date 21st Century look and quality. Foster’s knowledge of the aesthetic use of materials is comprehensive and creative. I highly recommend his work and look forward to working with him again in the future.”

“I met Ralph through a mutual friend. While we have only collaborated on one project so far, the conversations and dialogue we have had will surely grow into more collaborations. I am a young Architect, so his years of design and construction experience are extremely welcomed and is already a great mentor for myself, while also meeting his clients expectations.”

“Anne Surchin was an excellent architect for our small farmhouse -style kitchen renovation in Southold. I had seen a friend's renovation by her and was impressed enough to then hire her for our kitchen. She is extremely knowledgeable about architectural styles and costs and was able to work within our means. She suggested an excellent builder who kept prices down. As a woman, she was especially mindful of my needs and comfort in the kitchen and was imaginative at suggesting ideas when I didn't have a clue. I would highly recommend Anne for those who have an appreciation of good architecture and would like an architect who has the same.”

“You will not find a more professional, reliable and easy to work with architect. We have been working with several vendors on a big basement project for the last 6 months and Daniel is in a league of his own. Responds promptly to phone calls and emails and really knows his stuff. I would recommend him in a heartbeat!”

“I consider Diversified a design team, as well as a top sub-contractor, who not only identify the right construction solutions but understand a project from an architectural, engineering, and interior design perspective. I have employed Diversified to provide me with all three services, architectural plans, engineering work (including obtaining obtaining permits) and subcontracting work. Diversified does a good job in holding the subcontractors accountable that work is done well and on time. They ensure subs work in concert with one another so there are relatively few lapses in work as compared to other firms. I have not been stuck with a punch list that takes months to address. They address issues and problems right away. My level of satisfaction is so high, I have hired Diversified to work on two different houses. The first time I have ever hired a contractor more than once. The work on my first home was so well done and had such a positive impact on our curb appeal, the house was sold in 3 days! I employed them the second time when I needed a firm who could move quickly in making my fixer upper move in ready (they even helped me out in the aftermath or Super storm Sandy). While the work may be a tad more expensive, it was worth the extra investment to make sure the end product was well done. I absolutely recommend Diversified.”

“Colin is a highly experienced home designer, having worked on many large high-end residential, as well as commercial projects. His planning to determine space usage is very thorough and thoughtful for daily living and future eventualities. Colin is also very hands-on in managing his projects.”

“I love the range of this architectural practice. Their attention to detail with design of well proportioned and attractive spaces is a welcome relief to the blandness of typical builder houses. Their talent with space planning and willingness to meet client desires with rational and well conceived lay outs is evident in these photos.”

“We were very happy with the the whole project and especially with the design. Eric is easy to work with and very professional. He is able to understand the client's desires and transform them into something unique.”

“We had the pleasure of working with AnaMaria Stanomir when we were renovating a 1927 home in Forest Hills Gardens, New York. We initially thought the projecting was quite daunting being that the originals owners of the house did not fix anything in the last 40 years that they lives there. We did a gut renovation with the help of AnaMaria. She paid meticulous attention to details and made a very professional blueprint. She worked closely with the contractors in guiding them though the process. She was easy to get along with which made the process hassle free and interesting. She made creative suggestions regarding fixtures, tiles, and overall design. We didn't have to be on site as much knowing that she was in running everything so smoothly. She had great taste and a wonderful flare for design. She went to many of the stores with us to pick the tiles. She knew exactly where to go and what to hone in on. We will gladly hire her for the next project we have. For now, we are living in our beautifully and tastefully restored 1927 home and loving it thanks to AnaMaria”

“Ed is fantastic. His plans are second to none. Extremely detailed. Ed is exceptionally great at design and a pleasure to work with.

Our company has recommended Ed for all our projects in the last few years and look forward to our continued relationship with him. Bob Stang-VP U.S. HOME REMODELING CORP.”
