Patrick was timely, easy to deal with and his charges were very fair. We had some unique issues with our project and Patrick was very thoughtful and creative in his approach. He is a careful listener and was always responsive and easy to deal with. His work product is excellent. He was very helpful in communicating with the City relating to any questions they had about our project. We would recommend him without any hesitation. **★★★★★ — crosbycs, Oct. 2023** > I’ve worked with Patrick personally and professionally for the last 10 years, and he is one of the most honest and upright individuals I’ve ever worked with in the industry. His attention to detail and his willingness to listen to what the client wants and then work that into a design that also satisfies code requirements, and engineering requirements is second to none. Would recommend Patrick to anyone! **★★★★★ — Missy Enberg, Oct. 2022** > Patrick went above and beyond our expectations. His professionalism and skills as a designer and architect helped us incredibly. We did an entire inside and out renovation. His space planning inspired us to choose an incredible kitchen layout and and create a contemporary look. He was very easy to talk through our ideas and provided great guidance from the start to finish. Please consider Patrick for your next renovation. He is really the way to go!!!!! **★★★★★ — markrice123, Sept. 2022** > We hired Patrick to design our custom dream home for us in Bend Or. Patrick took great care in listening to our wants and needs, which turned our vision into a reality. Although plans changed as the project evolved, Patrick was very adaptable at fine tuning the plans and very inventive in finding practical solutions. Not only is Patrick talented and detail-oriented but he was professional, collaborative, and accessible throughout the whole process. We highly recommend Patrick and would hire him again without hesitation. **★★★★★ — Darcie Mueller, Sept. 2021** > I began working with Patrick in late 2019 on the redesign of my 1970's era home. His process was very straight forward, we had an initial meeting and walk through at my home where we discussed current pain points, ideas and goals of the future space. He took field measurements and within a few weeks I was able to review the initial design. Patrick and I worked through a few revisions, he was great to work with listening to my ideas and offering his expertise and experience around flow, resale value and aesthetics. I wanted light, airy, usable living spaces tailored to my family's way of living and Patrick delivered that and more - The end result is a beautiful, open concept design that my family and I will enjoy for many years to come! Thank you Patrick! **★★★★★ — Rachael Carnagey, Sept. 2020** > Patrick was referred to us by our builder, Mike Arnett/Lifestyle Homes to design a new build for our lot in Sisters, OR. Patrick was very attentive, listened to what we were trying to achieve in the new design, what we loved about our current home, and what we wanted to change. He offered design ideas from his experience, and has been great to bounce ideas off of. He was extremely patient with our updates, and even more patient while working through a difficult and tedious process with our Design Review Committee. Patrick even helped write up responses to them for us for a more professional polish. > > Besides being very easy to collaborate with, Patrick is extremely personable. We are looking forward to having him come and stay with us in the new home he designed for us. The Carnageys would highly recommend him! **★★★★★ — Jeff Stiling, June 2020** > Patrick designed our dream home that will be built 2H 2020. The site is in the Willamette Valley wine country, so we had specific ideas we wanted incorporated in the design that worked with the site. Through teamwork with our builder (Pat Huske - Ironwood Homes), Patrick worked with us to come up with a fantastic design. We iterated several times on ideas, moving some walls and making adjustments literally real-time on Zoom video calls. It was a very positive, productive and valuable effort. Patrick's fees are quite reasonable and his turnaround / response times extremely fast and reliable. My wife and I HIGHLY recommend Patrick Schmitt to design your home. You'll be glad you did and happy with the whole experience. **★★★★★ — Warren-G, June 2020** > My wife and I started working with a custom home builder in 2019 to come up with a plan to build a home for us on our small farm in Helvetia (near Hillsboro OR). The home builder does a lot of work with Patrick and recommended we work with him to design our home and come up with the plans that the builder would then work off of. We started working with Patrick and from the beginning he made it a very easy process for us. While he lives in Utah, we are in Oregon and I was skeptical at first how a long-distance design process like that would work. But Patrick was patient and understanding of our questions and concerns and even graciously worked with us as we scrapped the entire first version of the plans and went in a totally different direction. He even came to visit us here in Portland so he could see the property and get a feel for what he had to work with. Patrick did all the research and coordinated the various different companies we needed for things like the geological survey and the engineering plans. We plan to start building in Spring 2021 and are really looking forward to seeing Patrick's plans come to life! Thank you again, Patrick! **★★★★★ — Mike Maxwell, March 2020** > I have been working with Patrick on a project in Bend Oregon. My lots are particularly challenging, on a hillside of nearly solid rock with mandatory height restrictions. He has been amazingly creative in working within the parameters on this project and has been super collaborative with me, the engineers, the geo-techs, surveyor and the city of Bend on every step to keep the project moving. I also have to say that his design is well thought out and beautiful! Everyone from the trade contractors to my leasing agent comment on the beauty and design of the project. He is really a gifted designer and a great partner to work with. **★★★★★ — Michael Sitter, April 2019** > Because of our location we were never able to meet Patrick in person. Still, he read through the home owners design requirements, listened to what we wanted and designed our vacation home exactly like we wanted on the first round. Patrick is easy to communicate with and makes requested changes quickly. I would use Patrick again and would recommend him to anyone. **★★★★★ — Carlos Mc, March 2019** > Excellent work . I have work with different architects for years and have never run across someone like Patrick . Very professional and very meticulous. I can’t say enough good things about him . > Thank you again Patrick . **★★★★★ — Christopher Yeager, Sept. 2018** > This is the second time we've worked with Patrick and he will undoubtedly continue to be our go-to for future projects. The plans Patrick provided us are first rate. It's a pleasure to work with him, readily providing guidance gleaned from his wealth of knowledge and experience. Well beyond providing the exceptional drawings, he helped me to understand decisions that would need to be made, their implications and the potential obstacles I might encounter with permitting and the like; as well as initiating contact with other key players in the process (engineers, etc.). We've learned that the smallest of projects can be very daunting for those -like myself- unfamiliar with the industry workings, and Patrick proved to be a most valuable asset. ## Selected projects - [Modern Prairie - Custom Vacation Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-prairie-custom-vacation-home-pj-vj~7788690) - Location: Bend, OR - Photos: 22 - Description: This vacation home truly packs a punch!

A: This project was done a few years back, so all of the specs are now archived in the builder's files. Therefore, I have no way of finding out what the colors are. **Q: Love this house plan!** *(in Photo Questions)* Are these plans by chance available? Would love some dimensions. Also, what is the square footage? THANKS A: Suzanna, thank you for your great comment on the home. If you are interested in discussing this plan or a custom design, please feel free to contact me directly. Here is a link to this home on my website which will give you a little more detail - https://www.psdesignerinc.com/sunriver-custom-home. My contact info is also on the site. Thanks, Patrick **Q: soffit and eaves** *(in Photo Questions)* What type of material is used on the soffit and eaves? A: I believe we used a 1x3 or 1x4 T&G cedar on this one. **Q: Exterior Color & Manufacturer** *(in Photo Questions)* Would you mind sharing the exterior Manufacturer and color. Thank you. A: Scott, the siding material used on this is James Hardy. I don't have the specific color of this home but I have another project that has a very similar color. You can view that project here http://www.psdesignerinc.com/project-gallery See the Mountain Modern - Custom Home - Sister, OR project. The body color of that one is PPG-1007-7 Bark and the trim will be Benjamin Moore \#1596 Nightfall. Hope that helps. **Q: Which exterior colors?** *(in Photo Questions)* Can you please tell me exterior paint colors you used? A: Corey, Unfortunately, this home was done a few years ago and all of the records of the construction materials, colors, etc. have been archived by the builder. Therefore, I have no record or access to the color. **Q: exterior paint?** *(in Photo Questions)* What a gorgeous home! Just stunning. Would you mind sharing the exterior color? Thank you and have a great day! A: Thank you, Rachael! It looks like you have seen my other comment/answer on the paint color question but in case not, here you go: The roof color is black/charcoal Presidential composition. I am not sure of the specific paint color on this project but we have another one that is very similar. The body color on that one will be PPG - 1007-7 Bark and the trim is Benjamin Moore \#1596 Nightfall. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-17.*
