Drafting Professionals in Wake Forest, NC

“My wife and I bought a home on a beautiful lake just a short distance from our offices, removed the existing home, and needed an incredible design for this unique property. We decided to retain Darrell and Liz based on some of their previous work, as well as both of them were LEED certified (an organization and green building standard I helped start in the early ‘90’s). They quickly caught our vision and desires, and made many improvements by blending in their own expertise and experience. At each iteration of the design we became more and more excited about our future home and how it seamlessly integrated into the property promising wonderful views and an incredible indoor/outdoor living experience. Sadly our plans changed and we sold the property, but have purchased 10 acres in Washington state with an even more incredible view, and will be incorporating many of the design features into our retirement home. Darrell and Liz are highly recommended if you’re wanting to do something outside the ordinary, and want architects who are easy to work with.”

“I asked ETIN Design to completely re-do our home office and Bozhena Etin exceeded my (already high) expectations! She carefully listened to our functional needs, incorporated our aesthetic tastes, and designed an incredibly beautiful and elegant workspace. It is a joy to be in the office all day. I was impressed with her meticulous attention to detail, her professionalism, and her rapid response to our questions. If it were possible to award 6 stars, I would.”

“We have worked with Dave for the better part of 25 years. We can always count on his professionalism, creativity and accuracy. Triangle Residential Deisgn has proven to be a leader in our community and thanks to his work, our company has won many local and national awards.'”

“I’ve had the opportunity to work with Hutch on various projects spanning a number of years. On two projects, I was the owner’s representative/project coordinator, so I have seen him through the eyes of a client. On others, I’ve worked on the contractor’s team as selection coordinator, and have seen him through the eyes of a peer. I also work for Hutch as a bookkeeper, so I see him as a business man, and I watch how he relates to all members on any project team. Hutch is not a brand to sell. He is a creative listener who delivers what the client dreams of or requires. When reality sets in for the client, he helps harness the scope so that it fits the budget, but maintains the superior quality of design and function that are important to the client, regardless of scale. I’ve also worked on projects with other designers. When on a “Hutchless” project, one thing I notice almost immediately (and miss terribly) is Hutch’s ability to know how a space will be used or lived in. His perception and foresight are far superior to many other designers. In addition, he knows how materials will function and esthetically relate to each other, so that spaces just plain work — and they look fabulous in the process. Amazingly, with such focus on the design and esthetics of a project, he is forever cognizant of the structural integrity of a building. He knows what works, and what doesn’t. Hutch is very good at guiding his clients through the process, which can be overwhelming. He’s realistic, he issues alerts when needed and he will do what the client insists upon in spite of his better judgment, so long as it does not produce an inferior or dangerous structure. I look forward to working on more projects with Hutch, and to referring him to anyone who needs a thoughtful professional who is really good at what he does and loads of fun to work with. He takes his work seriously, but is anything but stogy!!”

“Barnett did not disappoint...again! This is the 4th house I have used the interior/exterior design services of Barnett Adler...and it's certainly the most complex and best one he's done to date! Barnett has that incredible ability to envision gorgeous, welcoming and spectacular spaces from almost sterile rooms and make them into a reality. And...while keeping to a budget! What impresses me most is that he can give you a million dollar look at pennies on the dollar. Either through using less expensive substitutions or scouring the internet for close outs on very high end furniture, fabrics and accessories. He is also re-did my house's exterior. First on CAD/CAM and then by interviewing and selecting the best contractor who bid on the job. Barnett comes with my highest recommendations possible.”

“I had the privilege in working with this company last Christmas. Jeremy Hauch crafted a beautiful table for my great room. I recently moved and designed my new space just off his piece. As a fellow artist, I was a bit nervous about trusting someone else to complete my vision but Jeremy worked with me to make sure the table was exactly what I envisioned. Hauch Design pieces are artistic, one-of-a-kind and well crafted. I planning on having Hauch Design PLLC design and craft many more pieces for my residence.”

“Mark was competent, kind, prompt, responsive and easy to bounce ideas off of. Hiring an architect to help us with our renovation/addition was too expensive and unnecessary, but we didn't trust ourselves to simply draw up a design ourselves on a napkin and hand it to our builder. Mark was the perfect solution.”

“We have worked with Tony and his team for many years. The design/build process with our homeowners and Frazier Home Design is always flawless, as is the final product. Frazier really excels in space planning and exterior design and we would highly recommend working with them for a custom plan to fit your personality and your family's needs.”

“Mike was so easy to work with! We started with a plan he had drafted for another family and tweaked it substantially to suit our needs. He was very open to our changes and suggestions and great at coming up with solutions when we ran into issues. He and our builder, C. R Spainhour, clearly worked brilliantly together and assisted us through the design process with the utmost patience. Thanks to Mike and Reeves we are now building the house we've dreamed of for 10 years!”

“My partner and I purchased a home built in 1939 located inside the beltline of Raleigh, NC. The home had tremendous potential -- good bones, character, quirky spaces and ideal outdoor spaces. We were confident that with the right designers and builder, the home could be transformed into a comfortable and functional indoor/outdoor living space. Alphin Design Build and Jordan Design were amazing to work with. Both teams are knowledgeable, creative, and excellent listeners. They invested time in us -- learning how we would like to live in our indoor/outdoor spaces. As a result, our expectations were exceeded and our perfect "forever home" is now a reality.”
