Her communication is great and her designs are amazing. She is my go to Architect.

She’s very professional and has a very good design sense. I would recommend her highly. **★★★★★ — Brian Franco, Dec. 2024** > My wife and I recently had our first baby and we quickly realized that we would need more living space in our small home. With Lori's help we decided to convert our 200 square feet garage into my office space. Lori was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. > > This was the first time my wife and I took on a renovation project like this so we had a lot of questions and Lori was always quick to reply with helpful responses. When we hit a snag during the permitting process, Lori was a big help in dealing with the permit office to get it resolved. > > Our garage-to-office renovation has been complete for a couple months now and we are very happy with the end result. If a friend came to me asking for an architect/residential designer recommendation, I would feel very good sending them to Lori. **★★★★★ — Adam Marigliano, Dec. 2024** > Lori of Studio Phariss came highly recommended and we couldn't be happier with her custom interior design skills! From the initial consultation to the final reveal, she completely transformed our kitchen and dining room. Lori's vision is impeccable, and she has a remarkable talent for understanding not just our style, but also how we live and what we needed. The end result is a kitchen and dining room that are not only beautiful but also incredibly functional.
