**★★★★★ — Christine P, Nov. 2016**

> Mark has been such a pleasure to work with for the custom rebuild of our house thus far. He is very responsive no mater what time or day of the week it is which we extremely appreciate! What stands out the most other than his creative and innovative style, is his ability to really listen and get a sense of what you want, and is able to incorporate what you ask for in a brilliant schematic design. He has been professional and extremely easy to work with from day one. We feel so lucky to have Mark as our architect and can't wait for the completion of our new home!
