Architects in New Haven County, CT

“John R. Schroeder, AIA, you have given us our dream home and by that I mean a home more beautiful than we could have imagined and yet completely suitable to our hectic everyday lives as a family with four young children. You listened to our random ideas and put them together into a design that is better than the sum of its parts and what's more, it was completed on schedule (I didn't think this ever happened!).”

“Dave is a highly skilled architect with a deep knowledge of the style and structure of the building(s) he is asked to design and draft. Dave is easy to work with and has a keen sensitivity for his clients' tastes. He spends considerable time listening and understanding the "wants" of his clients and balancing the practicality and realistic options for construction. I would enthusiastically recommend him to anyone interested in designing and building a "house of one's dreams". You will not regret the time and effort he contributes to your project.”

“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.”

“My husband and I, after perusing about 500 house plans this winter, finally decided on one to build. We contacted Joel Davis, and we purchased the plan. Because we intended to make several changes, he forwarded the PDF file to the company which provides modification services for them. I asked Joel whether the house had ever been built, and he researched and found the information for me. The nearest family who had built the house that we had chosen was located only a 6-hour drive from us. I contacted them, spoke with the wife at length, and she invited us to come down and actually see "our house". This was really a great opportunity, as you can imagine. They were kind enough to host us for 4 hours; we got the opportunity to look at every cubby and closet, to ask them endless questions - and we got a slide show of the construction process as their home was being built. Well, a long story shortened... we knew this house was not for us! It was immensely larger than we had envisioned. We had simply liked the floor plan, but had really not had an accurate vision for how large the rooms would be. I contacted Joel and explained our dilemma. He really went to bat for us, contacting the architect and explaining the whole thing. Because we had never actually received anything - no plans or PDF files, he was able to refund our purchase. We were really pleased that he also sold our "second choice" plan - another architect's work. He really cared that we were happy with our choice and that we were building a house we would be thrilled to move into. I can't say enough good things about this company! I would guess that most businessmen in Joel Davis' position would simply tell us, "tough luck!" and be more concerned about keeping their architects happy. I would highly recommend using their service when choosing your house plan.”

“We worked most directly with Sara Nelson and could not have had a better experience. Sara and her firm were responsive, resourceful and highly creative with great attention to important and meaningful details that are a trademark of their work.”

“Just bought a garage house plan from them for a build next spring. The staff was very helpful in helping me pick out the plan and going over the modifications I wanted made. Everything was doable and they were very friendly to work with. When the plans arrived they were easy to print out and read and had plenty of details to work from. We can't wait to break ground this coming spring.”

“After researching and interviewing several other firms in the area, my husband and I were delighted to meet Russ Campaign. Our project was challenging and demanded a level of creativity that Russ met and exceeded. His ability to execute our vision within the confines of what could be done in the project as well as keeping the design practical in terms of cost was excellent. I would unconditionally recommend his firm, and look forward to working with them again in the future.”

“David was a true joy to work with when designing our home. His aesthetic and his attention to detail are outstanding. I admire the thought he puts into his designs. He gets to know your personality, interests, likes, dislikes and what's important to you before he does anything design wise. David has exquisite taste and a well formed thought process. I recommend him highly.”

“I worked with Aurora on a full-scale condo renovation in Manhattan in the fall of 2018 until spring 2019. She was both the architect, as well as the interior designer for the project. Before even getting to know her, I was initially impressed with the renderings she put together as part of the real estate sales listing. This offered me, as buyer, the opportunity to envision the potential for this unit. Without her renderings, quite candidly, I'm not sure I would have been as eager a buyer, which goes to show how impactful her design aesthetic and vision was. While working with her on the project itself, I found Aurora to be: extremely detail-oriented, engaging, responsive, and reliable. Her design aesthetic speaks for itself, but beyond her architectural and design skills, she was a delight to work with from a client perspective. She is adaptive to feedback and seeks tirelessly to craft the right combination of fixtures, finishes, colors, textures, etc., in order to bring all elements together in a coordinated fashion. She is also attentive to budget, and will work with the client on meeting design goals at various price points. I would highly recommend Aurora to anyone seeking her architectural and / or design services. The love and pride I feel for my new home is a direct testament to her vision and her hard-work to accomplish it.”

“We were extremely pleased with Joana's service. Her knowledge, creativity, and most of all patience was hugely helpful as we planned and designed our home addition/remodeling project. Joana was able to provide her help from the conceptualization of our project through to the negotiation with our contractors which was invaluable given our inexperience with this type of project. Her assistance and persistence in liaising with the contractors alone was worth every penny! It was a pleasure to work with Joana, even our 3 year old looked forward to her visits to talk through her ideas, the plans. I would say that Joana's biggest strengths are her professionalism, detail oriented nature, patience, and creativity. I would gladly hire Joana for another project or recommend her to anyone looking for high quality support for an architectural project.”
