We are a Premiere Architectural firm specializing in designing New Home and Home Addition projects serving the residents of Florida and Georgia. 

My name is Leslie, and I’ve spent over 20 years helping homeowners like you design the right new home project or create the right design for your new home addition.

Designing your home can be overwhelming process, especially if you’ve never built a new home or done a home addition. During the last 5-10 years, residential building requirements have become as complex and strenuous as commercial projects in the amount of paperwork, details, codes, and drawings.

**★★★★★ — DESIREE BRAZDIS, Nov. 2023**

> Leslie has been great with answering all my questions and communicating timely. If anything, I am the one lagging on our project. He has had quick turnaround times and really took the time to explain our options in certain design choices and let give us insight we would not have had otherwise. Would highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — HU-609760047, Nov. 2023**

> As a Project Manger and owner of two different construction companies, I have used LGS several times now and I have not been disappointed, they have been very professional and always quick to respond, very thorough in the services that they offer, I will be using them for years to come!

**★★★★★ — Lexie Woodson, Oct. 2023**

> I've worked with LGS Architectural Services on various projects over the last 6 months or so. Leslie's attention to detail and commitment to producing high-quality, creative designs was apparent right away. A building's construction is incredibly complex whether a modest residential addition or a large commercial project. If you're looking for a highly knowledgeable designer with excellent communication and collaboration skills, you're in the right place.

**★★★★★ — Ronald Webber, Oct. 2023**

> Leslie is a fantastic architect but he is also a great communicator! I had trouble finding others locally who had time and were also responsive. Thank you for giving your time to help us with our new home it looks great. We will definitely be using LGS Architectural Services again.

**★★★★★ — esparza5, Oct. 2023**

> We worked with LGS to develop the plans and permitting documents we needed for our home expansion in Venice, FL.  They were responsive and did good work.  They were great at responding to our questions and we felt like we were working with a trustworthy group.  We'd be glad to work with them again in the future.

**★★★★★ — HU-457110816, Oct. 2023**

> I designed my own home in 2021 and needed a draftsman to take my design to permitting. After having no luck finding a reasonable or level headed draftsman, I got online and found Leslie. I first spoke on the phone about a year before working with him and he was very thorough and clear and understood what I wanted. In the fall of 2022 he began work on my permitting plans and by March 2023 I was breaking ground! I would recommend Leslie to anyone looking to build, remodel or otherwise needing design services. My husband has worked as a contractor for over 35-years so I naively believed we would be "the one" with a flawless experience but that has not been the case. In reality, there have been bumps and miscommunications where I did not expect it and Leslie got us through these periods. My house is still under construction but it is surreal to see it come to life - from a dream, to a plan, to something tangible thanks to Leslie.

> I would absolutely work with Leslie again!!!

**★★★★★ — ryanschulze, Oct. 2023**

> Leslie has worked on several projects for me in several different states.  He is very attentive and responds very fast.  His prices are very reasonable and he is really good about changes.  I have referred Leslie to a few of my clients and they have had a really great experience as well.  I would recommend Leslie to anyone in need of architectural services.

**★★★★★ — Lifestyle Design Homes, Oct. 2023**

> To say that Leslie is absolutely amazing would be an understatement. He is the most professional, competent, fair and knowledgeable architect that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He goes above and beyond what most are willing to do with a smile. He is a complete joy to work with and I could not recommend him more.

  - Description: This 2 story home with a walkout basement level utilized a very narrow lot to achieve a master suite, 3 guest bedrooms, an office space, a full sized living room, a kitchen, and a dining room. It was the dream of a great client of mine and took us 2 years to think through all of the possible layouts as every move we made impacted other spaces. We maximized every square inch of this property to meet the homeowner's expectations while complying with safety codes.
