### All 5 reviews

**★★★★★ — Larry Whatley, Aug. 2017**

> We met with Steve once in person and described what we were looking for in a home.  He did some rough sketches and with very few changes we had the home we were looking to build.  We lived in Houston so after the first meeting all of the discussions occurred either by phone or email.  Steve was super easy to work with and designed us an outstanding home.  We were totally pleased and would highly recommend his services to anyone.

**Comment from Austin Design Group:**

> Thank you Larry! It was a pleasure working with y'all as well!

**★★★★★ — Jennifer Garner Interiors, April 2015**

> I have had the pleasure of working on Austin Design Group's architectural designs for many years. I have found their firm to be lead by talented professionals like Steve Todd. They are responsive, detail oriented and easy to work with. The plans they design are very unique and always very current. Happy to work with them anytime, and would recommend them to anyone wanting to design the house or project of their dreams.

**★★★★★ — Sterling Custom Homes, Dec. 2013**

> Sterling Custom Homes has built over 80 custom homes designed by Steve Todd of the Austin Design Group. Steve is a gifted designer who always displays the highest level of professionalism and integrity. We not only refer clients to Steve, we have also collaborated with him on several "Parade" homes over the years. Steve's designs have helped us earn the Texas Association of Builder Custom Builder of the Year award, three times! Steve and his team are top notch professionals.

**★★★★★ — Pillar Custom Homes, Inc., June 2013**

> Pillar Custom Homes has used Austin Design Group for close to two decades.    Steve Todd, partner, is a skilled designer and knows his craft well.   His designs are cutting-edge, functional, and aesthetically optimal.     His easy going demeanor affords him a superior rapport with my clients that makes me proud to have him part of my "team".    I strongly recommend Austin Design Group.

> Michael Cohen, CEO/President

**★★★★★ — laurelcasas, March 2013**

> Austin Design Group is currently wrapping up designing our home, and I cannot say enough good things about them.
>
> Steve is an extremely experienced, professional designer while at the same time very down to earth and super easy to work with. His designs are beautiful and practical at the same time.
>
> They are reasonably priced and do the same (or better!) quality work than several more expensive agencies we considered.

## Community Q&A

**Q: Where can I find those vanities/cabinets?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Beautiful bathroom!  Very masculine and feminine at the same time.

A: Thank you! They did turn out very well. I do not know if the cabinets were custom built or were purchased from a company. The interior designer on the project was Chelsea Kloss and she is on Houzz Chelsea Kloss Interiors, I am sure she would remember.

**Q: how far apart are your batons please** *(in Photo Questions)*

Pretty house

A: Thank you! I believe they are at 16" o.c.

**Q: what color are the cabinets and who makes them** *(in Photo Questions)*

What color are the cabinets and who makes them?

A: I believe these were custom built cabinets and finished on the job site. The interior designer was Turnstyle design and they also have a site on Houzz and this home is featured. You can check with them and they may can give you more details,

**Q: That light fixture is GORGEOUS! Mind sharing where it's from?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: I believe the Interior Designer chose that fixture. Turnstyle Design is the designer and they have the photo on their page as well and can help you I'm sure.

Thank you for your interest!

**Q: Can you give any details on the range hood** *(in Photo Questions)*

size, make, model, cost?

A: I'm sorry but the only information I have on the range is that it was a 36" wide range. I'm not sure of the manufacturer. The hood was custom built I believe around a remote hood.

**Q: coffee tables are GREAT!** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where did you find these coffee tables?

A: I'm sorry, but we don't know the answer to that. we did the architecture and the owner handled the interior furnishings.

Thank you for checking though!
