## About

Balcones Architects was founded in 2010 by Jana Rodriguez.  Our passion is to create spaces that uniquely respond to our client's needs and connect to the natural place in which they are located.  We remain aware that we are not just designing buildings but creating places for the human experience.  “Form follows function” as the renowned architect Louis Sullivan is famously quoted.  The function can only be deciphered from an understanding of the human need.  The ability to carefully listen and respond to the human need results in the best defined form.  Sincerely caring about our clients and considering how they will interact in our designs years from now is our highest priority at what we believe sets us apart from other firms.  Essentially the building is only an expression of how the people inside use it and we consider it our duty to best translate this for our clients and create beautiful and inspired spaces that elevate living.

**★★★★★ — Cori Schwartz, Sept. 2022**

> Balcones Architects recently assisted us with a residential project involving a roof structure rebuild and other updates to a 1960's era home. Their experience was essential for the project’s success - not only with the repair of critical structural elements, but also with suggestions that will greatly improve the enjoyment and value of our home. From our experience, we have seen that Balcones Architects are responsive to their clients' needs and questions, communicate clearly, and have excellent working relationships with the other engineering, construction, and design professionals needed to complete any project. If I ever did have the opportunity to build my dream house, from the ground up - Balcones Architects is the firm I would trust with making it real. I can't recommend them enough!

**Comment from Balcones Architects:**

> Thank you Cori.  I appreciate your kind words and for trusting us to
>  work on your home.

**★★★★★ — Lamar Sellers, Aug. 2022**

> Jana was amazing to work with! She is knowledgeable, talented, and detail-oriented. The design process was smooth and her rates were very reasonable. Jana was a pleasure to collaborate with and it never felt like she was pushing her vision on us -- she was very receptive to any changes we wanted or details we wanted to include. She worked both with us and with our builder to make sure our project stayed as close to our budget as possible, and worked very well with our builder when any questions about the plans arose.
>
> Overall, we would highly recommend using Balcones Architects to anyone, and we will certainly use them again if the need arises!

**Comment from Balcones Architects:**

> Thank you Lamar.  I really enjoyed working on your project and with you all!

**★★★★★ — Derek Baker, Oct. 2021**

> I have worked in the home building industry my entire adult life and my wife and I could not be more happy with the plan and design that Jana created for us.  Jana expertly navigated the line between style and function and I receive glowing feedback from everyone I show my plan to.

**Comment from Balcones Architects:**

> Thank you Derek!  You all were great to work with!

**★★★★★ — LARRY, Sept. 2021**

> Jana is such a strong professional. We employed her to write new plans for a complete remodel of our Canyon lake home. She listened and took notes intently as we shared and explained the changes we desired to make our Dream home become reality. She did just that and so much more. She is so committed to meeting your goals and desires and staying in constant contact to make sure all is good and favorable. I would never hesitate to hire Jana as i would look forward to working with her anytime. She does understand and helps Dreams materialize.

**Comment from Balcones Architects:**

> Thank you Larry and Debbie!  I appreciate the kind words.

**★★★★★ — President Guenther, Sept. 2021**

> Balcones Architects were the utmost professionals during the remodeling project of San Marcos Academy's Lower School. Not only did they expertly deliver their project, but they were also thorough in making sure that every inch, angle, and color matched their specifications to the nth degree.  I would highly recommend Balcones Architects for your residential or commercial projects. You will be pleased not only with their delivery and service, but you will gain a firm with experts in both professional knowledge and committment. - Dr. Brian N. Guenther, President San Marcos Academy

**Comment from Balcones Architects:**

> Thank you Dr. Guenther.  We are honored to be part of the SMA Team!

**★★★★★ — HU-513460750, Aug. 2021**

> Jana designed and drew up the plans for the house that we are currently in the process of building in Wimberley Area. We could not have had a better experience working through this process with her. She was extremely helpful in working to discover what our tastes in a home involved and then giving helpful input for us to consider. The outcome in the design has both my wife and I thrilled to see the completed project over the next months...... Jana is extremely talented and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing design work of any kind. Her knowledge of materials and design possibilities are very impressive .

**★★★★★ — Eric Reed, Aug. 2021**

> As a structural engineer, I've worked on many projects with the Balcones team. Their attention to detail & thoughtful coordination have made them a pleasure to work with. I believe owners & owner's reps will appreciate their quality customer service and attention to detail as well. I highly recommend them.
