Has done great work! She also has some great understanding of the design I was going for. **★★★★★ — Janell Branch, Oct. 2020** > We are a small real estate investment company in Dallas. When we purchased a 2 story home built in 1925, my partner and I turned to Pam Chapman for her expertise in rendering a floor plan for this house. The property was basically a 1900 square foot box and Pam designed an open floor plan that allowed for use of every square foot of this house. It was as if we were literally building the home from ground up. > > If you are looking for a professional to render a design for you that will capture your vision, then look no further than Pam Chapman. **★★★★★ — Jim Lancaster, June 2019** > Pam worked with us to help evaluate what could be done to our then home to adapt it to our lifestyle and when we decided that it simply wasn't practical, she helped us evaluate one house, before helping us settle on the one we are in now. She provided drawings and suggestions for improvement that we thought we wonderfully helpful and insightful. We were thrilled with her services! **★★★★★ — Rachel Robertson, Nov. 2018** > We hired Pam as our architect to remodel our home, and we cannot say enough wonderful things about her. Her design are brilliant, and she's so easy to work with. We highly recommend her! **★★★★★ — Adam LaPlante, Oct. 2017** > Pam is a very talented architect and we love our new kitchen! We hired her for a complete kitchen remodel. Our kitchen went from a cramped u-shape with little space for storage to a beautiful bright open-concept design with a large island, custom cabinets, and great workflow. She has an eye for design and meshed our ideas into a beautiful space. She saw a lot of things we wouldn’t have and we are so glad we listened to her insight – even little things like additional lighting and locations for outlets etc. She was flexible and helped with all of the choices along the way. We look forward to using her for our future projects – she has some great ideas for our bathrooms! **★★★★★ — Leona Kwait, Oct. 2017** > We did a complete renovation of our kitchen and several common areas. When we initially approached her to give us some ideas she prepared plans from conservative (what we thought we wanted) all the way through pretty radical (or so we thought at the time). We ended up doing the most radical plans after sitting with them for a while and we don’t regret a thing! > Our house was built in 1972 so it had choppy little rooms. We opened up four walls and combined all four rooms. We expanded the kitchen to take up two of the rooms making the kitchen giant! > She worked with us on placement of appliances, drawers and cabinets. Also, she had the brilliant idea to swap the laundry room with the room intended to be the pantry. The lighting designs and fixture recommendations turned out beautifully and really are the icing on the cake. > Since we contracted this job ourselves, Pam referred us to many wonderful contractors that worked harmoniously together. > You’ll notice in the photos there are still a few finishing touches we are doing ourselves and have yet to complete them. > We couldn’t be happier with the design. **★★★★★ — Meredith Roberson, Nov. 2016** > Pam is quick to respond and works quickly and efficiently. She is very straight-forward in letting me know my options based on the budget and my design preferences. Pam worked very well with the Contractor and Construction team when necessary and all without the ego that can sometimes be seen. I really appreciated Pam's design aesthetic and knowing where to splurge and where to save. She made the most of a small kitchen and made the most of the natural light. Pam allowed me to see all of the possibilities in my large project without making it feel overwhelming. I highly recommend her for your next project! **★★★★★ — peichelb, Sept. 2016** > I was looking for an architect to help with my home remodel and found Pam on Houzz. She was a tremendous help with the architecture piece but she provided excellent guidance with the complete finish out. She is reasonable and well worth every penny. **★★★★★ — Tisha Stender, Sept. 2016** > Pam Chapman was our architect for our very first house flipping experience and several since then. She proved to be the best ally we could have hoped for in this new professional endeavor. Not only did she create a beautiful design, she was available and insightful every step of the way. Whenever we had questions or concerns, she was there to alleviate them. Whenever there was a hiccup in some implementation of the plan, she was there with a new idea. Her expertise and professionalism is unmatchable. She turned a daunting undertaking into a very enjoyable and easeful creative process. Amazingly, she was perfect at staying within budget. We at Ambition Living unequivocally recommend Pam Chapman for any architecture and design project and will be happy to use her services again in the future. **★★★★★ — mike12230, Dec. 2015** > We wanted to have the interior of our new home re-designed. It was a house built in 1978 and it needed some love. I provided Pam with the existing plans and she re-vamped them to bring our home into current times. Her creativity with the space opened my eyes to things I hadn't even thought of. Her attention to detail is amazing - providing spot on electrical schematics, etc... for all my other contractors. We were able to do everything online which made working with her very efficient for me. Thank you! **★★★★★ — cnamaste29, Nov. 2015** > Pam designed a remodel for our master bathroom. Through our conversations, she heard what we were looking for, designed it and led us in selecting the materials. She helped us choose everything: the tub, plumbing fixtures, floor and wall tile and paint. Pam responded quickly when we had questions during construction, which was critical for an ontime completion of the project. **★★★★★ — cooktmom, June 2014** > Excellent experience and results! Pam is an awesome architect and designer. She really listens to what you want and offers many ideas. She helped us remodel our kitchen and improved the work triangles and space storage very successfully. I love the new look and feel of the kitchen. She helped me coordinate everything with the right color and feel from the granite to the backsplash to the sinks and floor. She was always there when we needed her with a question or if we needed her to come out during the remodel to give her professional opinion or experience. She worked well with the various subs on the job. She matches your budget well with your personal tastes and expectations. I would recommend her to anyone. ## Selected projects - [Heatherknoll](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/heatherknoll-pj-vj~2769624) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 22 - [Robertson Residence Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/robertson-residence-remodel-pj-vj~5578498) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 33 - [Town Bluff Whole House Remodel and Addition.](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/town-bluff-whole-house-remodel-and-addition-pj-vj~2058336) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 18 - [Complete remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/complete-remodel-pj-vj~2282473) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 15 - [Second Floor Addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/second-floor-addition-pj-vj~1546400) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 4 - [Dallas Ranch Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dallas-ranch-remodel-pj-vj~2583467) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 29 - Description: A complete remodel a of a 3500 sq.ft Dallas ranch house. - [Dallas Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dallas-remodel-pj-vj~89690) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 35 - [Marmol Bath Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/marmol-bath-remodel-pj-vj~675923) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 21 - [Master bath update](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/master-bath-update-pj-vj~1592547) - Location: Grapevine, TX - Photos: 4 - [Princess Lane](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/princess-lane-pj-vj~1628360) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 9 - Description: Master suite remodel - [McElroy Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mcelroy-kitchen-pj-vj~573587) - Location: Plano, TX - Photos: 12 - [Bixby Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bixby-kitchen-pj-vj~924821) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 7 - [North Dallas Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/north-dallas-remodel-pj-vj~1855163) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 9 - [Laundry Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/laundry-room-pj-vj~675902) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 5 - [Edens Bath](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/edens-bath-pj-vj~492789) - Location: SouthLake, TX - Photos: 13 - Description: Master Bath Remodel - [Sunbeck](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sunbeck-pj-vj~281629) - Location: Farmers Branch, TX - Photos: 8 - Description: The first program requirement for this project was to add a private spa tub.

All areas were to be assessable by wheel chair so the client could age in place.

I am a novice but trying to figure out what to do in this space that now has a separate tub and shower. I want to add a stackable washer/dryer next to the shower but wondering if the spacing looks good. Any advice is appreciated! (This is a first level bath so we only need a single sink). A: You have a large room with lots a versatility. Here is another configuration with the washer and dryer handy upon entry. **Q: Selling Home - Kitchen question** *(in Polls)* Hello, I am trying to sell my home in Western New York. It’s been on the market just over two months and I am getting a bit hopeless. I am thinking of ways to freshen things up more and taking new photos. I was wondering if maybe we should paint our cabinets a cream color (to match one of the backsplash tiles) or a really dark brown. We’ve had feedback from only two viewers that said they liked the kitchen but never really specified anything. So, the kitchen is small. We’ve built our own island that is almost 6’ long and it’s mobile so we can push against the wall for parties. The cabinets are oak. The counters are new within last two years as are all appliances. So should we paint these cabinets? A: Remove the table beside the refrigerator, take everything off the refrigerator, and remove the items under the island. Is the refrigerator staying with the house? If not, do you need a nice new counter depth frig at your new location? Since the rest of your house is wood trim, I would not paint the cabinets. **Q: Front Door Color Suggestions** *(in Design Dilemma)* I need help choosing a color for our front door. Any suggestions? I would also like some advice for the garage- I don’t love having a giant white rectangle on the front of the house. Any ideas to help it “disappear” some? A: I think a burgundy red door would work well. **Q: Get quote** *(in Photo Questions)* How do I get a quote to have something like this installed in my home? A: This unit is custom made to slide in the back of a cabinet. If you have this situation, I would say find a cabinet maker and get their feedback. **Q: Need a 3 0r 4 panel gate -( 12' opening ) like a pocket door set up ?** *(in Photo Questions)* I'm remodeling a home who takes care of dogs. Would like to have the dog gate slide into wall like a pocket door have a 4' area to conceal ? Thanks Greg - Kalte Construction Company A: I don't know how you can do a dog gate similar to mine at 12'. I've seen one with wheels on the bottom, perhaps 2- 6' doors with wheels. I wish I could help. **Q: Where did you get the decorative metal piece in the middle?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: I had the grills made to the size and pattern I needed at http://www.archgrille.com/ Architectural Grille (Division of Giumenta Corp.) 42 2nd Ave Brooklyn, NY 11215 Telephone: 718-832-1200 --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
