Assisted with housing questions with regards to local Los Angeles regulations. Very professional with a wide degree of knowledge. Will likely return to his firm for future projects. **★★★★★ — Darrell Santos, Jan. 2023** > Great experience so far! Victor is terrific, coming up with a design my wife and love quickly, understanding our wants/needs, helping to get our plans processed through the city, and providing a great contractor referral. Looking forward to working with him through every detail of the construction process. Excited for the completion of our dream remodel. Thank you Victor, for helping us through this journey. **★★★★★ — Jeff Kaptain, Jan. 2023** > Victor came highly recommended from a longtime friend who had worked with him. My project was a 2-story ADU conversion from a detached garage in the back of my property. From start to finish, Victor was knowledgeable, reliable, helpful, creative, and collaborative. He worked with me and my wife on the design to get the most functionality out of our ADU project based on what our family wanted to use it for. He was instrumental in navigating the planning and permitting process, and was also involved in advising at various points of construction. We credit Victor for helping us make our ADU idea a reality and a functional space that will benefit our family for years to come- can't recommend Victor/ Dialectic Architecture enough! ## Selected projects - [WEST LA KITCHEN AND BATH](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/west-la-kitchen-and-bath-pj-vj~6868964) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - Description: Renovation of existing home.
