We added a laundry room, bedroom, and bathroom to our existing 1919 craftsmen. Her design and expertise helped us maintain the craftsmen details throughout the entirety of our home. She was essential in guiding us through both the historic and city permit process. We are beyond grateful for Stephanie and her willingness to walk alongside us during our first home renovation. We highly recommend Osorio Architecture. **★★★★★ — Rob & Anna, Aug. 2026** > We had the pleasure of working with Osorio Architecture on a major transformation of our ranch-style home. Our goal was to update the home into a warm, Craftsman-inspired design with transitional and modern elements while creating something that felt personal and connected to our vision. > > Stephanie came highly recommended by friends, and from our first meeting we appreciated her warm, open, and collaborative approach. She took the time to listen to what we wanted and helped guide us through the design process in a way that was easy to understand. > > One of the greatest benefits of working with her was the structure and organization she brought to the project. She clearly explained each step, helped us understand the decisions involved, and kept everyone aligned throughout the planning and construction phases. Her 3D modeling was especially valuable because it allowed us to see and understand the transformation before construction began. She was able to take our ideas and turn them into a cohesive design that felt warm, inviting, and uniquely ours. > > She was also instrumental in coordinating with our contractors, structural engineer, and the city approval process. She stayed on top of details, quickly addressed drawing changes, and helped ensure the project remained compliant with code requirements. Her responsiveness and attention to detail gave us confidence throughout the process. > > Beyond her architectural expertise, what stood out most was her personality and willingness to help. She was always available for in-person meetings or Zoom calls, answered questions clearly, and genuinely cared about making the project successful for everyone involved. > > A major home renovation can be complicated, but having Osorio Architecture as our partner made the process much smoother and more enjoyable. We are extremely happy with the result and grateful for her creativity, guidance, and dedication. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an architect who brings both professional expertise and a personal touch. **★★★★★ — Jermain Hollman, July 2026** > Working with Stephanie and the team at Osorio Architecture on our garage conversion renovation was an A+ experience from start to finish. Their level of professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to quality were evident every step of the way. > > Stephanie was incredibly responsive, friendly, and easy to communicate with, always taking the time to answer questions and keep us informed throughout the process. Stephanie’s expertise and thoughtful approach gave us confidence that our project was in great hands. > > If you’re looking for an architectural firm that delivers exceptional quality, outstanding service, and truly cares about their clients, I highly recommend Osorio Architecture. Our garage conversion renovation exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. **★★★★★ — HU-306865705, June 2026** > We hired Osorio Architecture to help us initiate "aging in place" modifications to our house. Our project merged two bathrooms into one space resulting in: 1) room for an all-in-one washer dryer combo in the house \[no more doing laundry in the garage\] and 2) a beautiful roll in shower. Of course, ample storage for bathroom linens and other supplies was included. Stephanie was great to work with. She listened carefully to us and asked many questions to ascertain what we wanted and needed. Follow up was very timely, and the process of reviewing drawings and requesting changes was very smooth and stress-free. We also appreciated her leading meetings with the builder. We highly recommend Osorio Architecture for Stephanie's professionalism, warm client-centered focus, and follow through ensuring our goals were met. **★★★★★ — HU-781988016, May 2026** > We worked with Stephanie on a small project and I give her the absolute highest recommendation. She is a clear and capable communicator who also patiently listens to her clients; she is responsive, highly competent and professional, thorough, extremely knowledgeable about craftsman design and local Long Beach ADU regulations, as well as warm and friendly, which is a bonus. If I ever needed future architectural services, I would hire her again in a heartbeat. If you’re looking for a great Architect, look no further, she delivers! **★★★★★ — Karen, Sept. 2025** > Stephanie was professional, incredibly attentive to detail, and meticulous at getting the designs just right for our project. She faced down the HPOZ board armed with research and ready to answer all their questions. Crafting the perfect design was definitely a group project between Stephanie, myself, and my spouse. Stephanie was the ideal partner - she always showed up prepared, having done extra reading beyond what was required, and she communicated expectations and upcoming deadlines clearly. Stephanie also struck a good balance between offering her wisdom and listening to our (quirky) preferences. Once construction started, she was firm with the contractors about placement of outlets and other small but important details that I would not have noticed until it was too late to adjust them. I cannot recommend Stephanie highly enough. **★★★★★ — A C, July 2025** > The process of designing and submitting plans for our ADU project was a breeze thanks to Stephanie of Osorio Architecture. She provided fresh ideas and was able to creatively navigate the challenges of building a beautiful and functional studio. Stephanie converted a 160sqft bike shed into a spectacular light-filled 234sqft home- complete with washer/dryer, dishwasher and full sized bathroom. Whole-heartedly recommend without question! **★★★★★ — Renate Boronowsky, Feb. 2025** > Working with Stephanie was an absolute joy from start to finish. She not only created a stunning design that perfectly captured our vision but also stayed deeply involved throughout the entire construction process, ensuring that every detail was executed to perfection. > > Unlike many architects who step back after the design phase, Stephanie remained present and engaged until the very last finishing touch. She visited the site frequently, catching potential issues before they became problems and advocating for us every step of the way. Thanks to her keen eye and dedication, she identified and pushed for necessary corrections—saving us time, money, and stress. > > Stephanie was truly invested in the success of our project, treating our home as if it were her own. Her expertise, attention to detail, and unwavering support made all the difference, and we can confidently say that we couldn’t have done it without her. If you're looking for an architect who combines creativity, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to her clients, look no further than Stephanie Osorio. > > We are forever grateful for her role in making our dream home a reality! **★★★★★ — AC R, March 2024** > This is a long overdue review of Osorio Architecture and our experience working with Stephanie. We were referred to Stephanie from our Interior Designer and are so very, very grateful and fortunate that we were. Stephanie is personable and takes her job seriously, she simply wants to do a very good job and truly cares that you are happy. The job of an architect isn’t easy especially for a couple like us that had our entire home remodeled and there was a permit process. Stephanie understood what was needed and diligently walked us through it. We also saw her in action with the electrician ensuring that the work was done as indicated on the construction documents that she drew up. Stephanie definitely understands the importance of her role and sometimes it may seem like she wants to “go by the book” but I cannot tell you how valuable that is because you gain a very good understanding of the pros and cons of any decision and she wants you to understand that before final decisions are made. And, along the way, Stephanie is personable, and such a delight to work with. She has great follow-up and follow-through and is very efficient in her work. We really enjoyed Stephanie so much throughout the process and grew to really respect her honesty, integrity and loved her bubbly personality. The project is over now and we miss the interaction with Stephanie. I trust that anyone one working with Stephanie will enjoy the same great experience that we had. We highly recommend Stephanie and Osorio Architecture. **★★★★★ — Maureen Neeley, Oct. 2023** > I am so happy with Stephanie Osorio and her architecture firm. I am not an experienced home renovator, but I was absolutely able to rely on Stephanie for guidance and direction. She was the perfect fit for me and my Accessory Dwelling Unit project. She listened to my needs and had such creative ideas to make them into reality. She worked directly with the city to answer questions and with my contractor to manage any areas that had potential to be problematic. I was so impressed by her calm demeanor and easy style. She kept me apprised at every step, offered well-thought options, and made this project seamless. Which, by the way, came in under budget and in a timely fashion. What a joy. I have recommended Osorio Architecture to many friends without hesitation. **★★★★★ — HU-628780981, Feb. 2023** > Stephanie was extremely creative and reliable as my architect. I added an ADU to the back of our house. The construction project turned out great. Her expertise as an architect was the difference. Highly recommend her services. **★★★★★ — Glenda Gomberg, Feb. 2023** > Stephanie Osorio is a dedicated, talented, and attentive architect. She recently designed our kitchen, dining room and family room remodel. Her design skills are clearly evident and the resulting remodel is all that we desired. Most importantly, she listened to everything we wanted out of the remodel, not just the items on our wish list but the overall feel when entering our home. We had experienced a bad remodel and waited nearly 25 years before attempting this one. We were very discriminating in choosing an architect and Stephanie Osorio was, by far, the very best choice. She guided us through city requirements, our desire to build as "green" as possible and looking towards future needs. Stephanie connected us with resources to help with environmental impact, and attended every meeting. Her knowledge of materials and building requirements was considerable and she kept a close eye on our budget. She was very organized, kept us apprised of timelines and checked in with us regularly. Construction can be overwhelming and she was there to help the entire way from our first design meeting to the last item on our punch list. In addition to all of this, Stephanie is a wonderful, caring and responsive person. It has been a pleasure to work with her and we highly recommend Osorio Architecture. ## Selected projects - [Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~7726569) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Garden ADU](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/garden-adu-pj-vj~7726566) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Tiny ADU](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tiny-adu-pj-vj~7726563) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Long Beach Two Story Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/long-beach-two-story-remodel-pj-vj~7726559) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Long Beach Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/long-beach-remodel-pj-vj~7223691) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [Accessory Dwelling Unit](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/accessory-dwelling-unit-pj-vj~6786156) - Location: Long Beach, CA - Photos: 23 [See all 6 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/osorio-architecture-pfvwus-pf~2117903260) ## Ideabooks - [Stephanie's Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/142145367/list/stephanie-s-ideas) — 1 idea [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/stephanie-osorio2) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
