### All 10 reviews

**★★★★★ — NYC Remodeler INC, Aug. 2018**

> Jon Moss is an architect of a high caliber and high standards.
> He is very versatile on commercial, residential or medical / hospital projects. Committed to his clients, very responsible and resourceful.
> He is a man of integrity and a visionary designer.
> I will highly recommend Jon to anyone for any project.

**★★★★★ — A Cafarella, May 2018**

> Berg & Moss Architects were a very nice team to work with. They were professional, courteous and flexible. The estimate and drawings were completed in a timely manner.

**★★★★★ — Devin Martin, Oct. 2017**

> Great communicators, incredibly knowledgeable, over all a real pleasure to deal with. Our project was small. All we needed was a design to finish our basement with 5 rooms, but they treated us like we mattered and really helped us think through what we wanted and make the most of the available space. A few things that Jon pointed out really saved us from going in the wrong direction with one of the rooms.

**★★★★★ — Jennifer Clair, Sept. 2017**

> Chris is so easy to work with and made our home renovation much easier on us because he foresaw complications well before they came to fruition. He is exacting in his drawings and went so many extra miles to give us exactly what we wanted. Highly recommended!

**★★★★★ — Aga Maros, Sept. 2017**

> We hired Berg + Moss Architects when we were modeling our new house in Beacon, NY. Mainly worked with John, who was easy going, understood what we were asking for and went beyond our expectations. We had a pretty unique situation that required a bit more of detail on how to solve really badly made a structure to the house. They were accommodating and flexible on the price. Additionally, John helped us with the board approval by filling out the necessary papers and attended the hearing to help the case go though. Highly recommend Berg + Moss Architects to anyone looking for remodeling.

**★★★★★ — victoria\_lichtendorf, Sept. 2017**

> Berg & Moss provide a sophisticated, creative, and cost-effective approach to planning. We were so pleased with the addition to our house, and the way they stitched together our eclectic 'story of rooftops'. It is hard to find such trustworthy and pleasant architects who can work on such a variety of projects. Their wide-ranging clientale also impressed us.

**★★★★★ — E. Swanson, Sept. 2017**

> Berg & Moss designed a new house for us.  Very helpful during the construction phase of the project.  Very professional and worked quickly to resolve issues/questions.  Would definitely work with them again!

**★★★★★ — Paula Kelley, Jan. 2015**

> Chris Berg has been a fantastic architect and partner for our new home project.  He listened carefully to all of our ideas and helped them to come to life in several initial design concepts that we were able to discuss and adapt.  When we switched gears in the middle of the project to shrink the footprint of the house, Chris was right there with us with more ideas and designs that worked.  He made us feel completely comfortable throughout and was patient, collaborative and creative.  Everything you would want in a partner in such an important process like this!

**★★★★★ — ghermtoo, Jan. 2015**

> We were seeking to build our dream house and were looking to work with an architect who could listen to our thoughts, ask the right questions to understand what would work and put them into form. Berg & Moss Architects were wonderful. The design that we finalized on is unique with lots of attention paid to details and exactly what we wanted. They worked with us on every phase of construction to ensure that the design was realized beautifully. We love our home and highly recommend anyone use them who are looking for custom design work.

**Comment from Berg + Moss Architects:**

> That was a beautiful house and a wonderful collaboration.  We enjoyed working with you.

**★★★★★ — anajoanes, Jan. 2015**

> Jon Moss is GREAT and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a talented architect that can both listen to his client's needs and give thoughtful advice! Jon is easy to work with, he is thorough and competent and always on time with is work.

  - Location: Philipstown, NY

  - Description: Exterior restoration and upgrade of a mid-century home in New York's Hudson Valley. We removed layers of vinyl, plastic and years of ticky tacky retrofits to restore the home to its original painted cedar siding. Previous renovations of the existing garage left an awkward relationship with the driveway which we tempered by installing plantings and concealed trash storage.

  - Location: Philipstown, NY

  - Description: The owner wanted to bring some curb appeal to their small cape home. The idea of a front porch that engaged the street was an immediate hit however it required a front yard zoning variance with the town. The improvement was unanimously approved at its first appearance. The porch is now an engaging element with the street and its residents.
