**★★★★★ — Dmitry Bronnik, Dec. 2016**

> David Stern is very experienced architect and it was a pleasure to work with on high-end project in New York.  If you are looking for an architect who can provide professional drawings with all details, David Stern is the right choice.

**★★★★★ — tina r, Dec. 2016**

> David is very creative and talented.  His drawings are impressive and he did a great job helping me with my remodel.

**★★★★★ — Scott Hirschberg, Aug. 2016**

> I am a general contractor working with high end Manhattan residential interiors for over 25 years. I recently met David when he was hired to help design and then draw a large Upper West Side cabinetry package. His communication and comprehension skills were excellent, as were his drawings...they were as close to shop drawings as I have seen from design phase drawings. And he was fast! Would definitely work with him again.

**★★★★★ — HU-630460, Aug. 2016**

> David was quick, responsive, and delivered on-time.  He offered inventive and knowledgable solutions to some difficult issues.  I look forward to working with him in the near future.
