**★★★★★ — Stan Sunshine, Jan. 2018**

> We engaged Philip after reviewing several architects and he developed our vision over a two year period of design and construction.  We were very pleased with his work, which was extremely detailed.  Additionally, Philip met regularly with our general contractor to resolve questions and issues that arose.  The end product exceeded our expectations.

**★★★★★ — Kimberly Link, Dec. 2017**

> We have been so fortunate to work with Philip on our new home! We are building a modern design, and Philip's aesthetic has been perfect for our project. Throughout the process he has gone above and beyond our expectations at every step. Along the way he has educated us on the intricacies of modern design and construction, and has always been considerate of our goals. His design process is brilliant and very thorough, bringing to life a home that we have dreamed of for years, but never thought possible!

**★★★★★ — Poggenpohl Atlanta, April 2013**

> We had a wonderful experience working with Philip.  Not surprisingly, Philip is a detailed, creative, and professional architect with vision.  He has high standards which translates into a beautiful house and true home for the client.
