**★★★★★ — iheartmoderndesign, July 2026**

> Brandon Olin is an exceptionally talented architect, and I feel incredibly fortunate that I had the opportunity to work with him.
>
> From our first conversations through the completion of the home, Brandon listened carefully to my ideas and transformed them into something even better than I had imagined. The house is not only beautiful, it lives remarkably well—every space feels thoughtful, functional, and intentional. His sense of proportion, style, and overall design aesthetic is outstanding.
>
> What impressed me just as much was Brandon's attention to detail. He anticipates the countless decisions that go into creating a custom home and thoughtfully works through them long before they become challenges during construction. His clear communication and collaborative approach with the builder made the entire process feel organized and seamless. Most importantly, he genuinely cares about creating a home that reflects his clients' vision.
>
> Working with Brandon was one of the best decisions I made during my home-building journey. I would not hesitate to work with him again, and I recommend him to anyone looking for an architect with exceptional talent, creativity, and integrity.

**★★★★★ — Duey Built, Dec. 2016**

> Brandon and I worked together on a contemporary home in the Tetherow golf community in Bend, Oregon. His modern design and the use of natural materials seamlessly transitions the indoor and outdoor living spaces to enhance the Bend lifestyle. The floor plan has an open flow for indoor/outdoor entertaining and also accommodates the owners need for family space. Brandon is a great guy to work with. He is easy to communicate with and always makes himself available. I look forward to more successful projects with Olin Architecture. —Tim Duey \| Duey Built

**★★★★★ — mountainlivin, Sept. 2015**

> Working with Brandon Olin building a modern custom home has been an entirely enjoyable experience. He is involved in the process from the beginning conceptual architectural plans, to the end of the completed house. He is the liaison between the builder, their sub-contractors and the material providers and is in constant dialogue with each to assure that the project is done exactly as planned. All of the other parties clearly enjoy working with him, and have said so directly to me.
>
> He is easy to talk to, a great listener and collaborator and allows for a creative flow within the project with all parties. He is a careful problem solver who considers all inputs and provides insightful solutions.
>
> I would recommend Brandon Olin for any project with enthusiasm!

**★★★★★ — Christy Michell, Feb. 2015**

> We worked with Brandon on an extensive house remodel.  The house was an awkward build from the early 90's and did not take advantage of its riverside location.  We were 8,000 miles away from the project initially, so good communication was essential.  Brandon got our design aesthetic right away.  He made our unconventional ideas work in the house and improved upon them!  Brandon was also very hands on with material suggestions and communications with the contractor.  We love our "new" house;  It turned out better than we imagined with his help.  He was a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend him!

**★★★★★ — Madrone Construction LLC, Feb. 2013**

> I have worked with Brandon Olin on several projects and have always been impressed with his ability to execute the vision of the project and over-deliver. His ability to translate the client's wants and needs to an efficient and thoughtful design are of high value.

**★★★★★ — User, Feb. 2013**

> Brandon Olin did a fantastic job on our addition. He took our ideas of what we had hoped for our garage with master suite above and turned them into something functional and beautiful. His knowledge of everything down to great material choices was good for us. He was great to work with and very humble which was nice, he didn't try to intimidate us like some construction professionals can at times. We would highly recommend him and hope to use his services again soon.

**★★★★★ — Melissa Winters, Feb. 2013**

> We hired Brandon Olin to help us correct several layout issues with a 1920s Craftsman-style home, including a kitchen remodel and adding a second-floor master suite with bathroom and dormer.  He was respectful of our need to phase the project to fit with our budget and our desire to remain faithful to the style of the house.  He was very patient as we explored different ideas and provided input into what design choices would create the most value.  Brandon is very organized, detail-oriented, keeps the project moving, and brings a lot of creativity and experience to the process.  I would work with Brandon again and recommend him without hesitation.
