David was very professional, responsive, and thorough. I appreciate his flexibility as the project that I needed was somewhat atypical for what he normally works with. The work in my kitchen was great. I will definitely use him for future projects. **★★★★★ — HU-173975214, June 2023** > As a shower glass vendor we are delighted and grateful for the opportunity to work with Urban Purpose Design. David is a wonderful person that has a keen attention to detail. His projects are always well constructed and built to last. Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — Carrie S, March 2023** > We have loved working with Urban Purpose Design. They completed a remodel of our kitchen, primary bathroom, powder, bathroom, and a few living spaces. Their design ideas were fresh and exciting, a great mix of what we already knew we wanted and new ideas that we loved. They were extremely diligent in honoring our budget constraints, proposing mini areas where we could save money, and still get a good result. Plus, they finished our project before their projected schedule. Would recommend them to anyone for remodeling work or even bigger projects. **Comment from Urban Purpose Design:** > Thank you so much Carrie and Vikas! We are enjoyed and are enjoying working with you both as well. **★★★★★ — Ellyn, March 2023** > I hired Urban Purpose Design to renovate a bathroom and help with several other projects around my 1930s home. I could not be happier with the results. From start to finish, the team at Urban Purpose Design was professional, attentive, and creative. > > We started the project consulting with Michelle on design, who listened carefully to my vision for the bathroom and took the time to understand my needs and preferences. She and David then presented a detailed design plan that beautifully incorporated my ideas and provided practical and innovative solutions. > > The team was transparent about the costs associated with the project and provided regular updates on expenses to ensure that we were always aware of where the project stood financially. At every turn, they were open to giving cost-saving suggestions that did not compromise the quality of the final product. > > They also kept me informed every step of the way, ensuring that I was always up-to-date with the project's progress. We renovated during the peak of supply chain shortages in 2021, so this was no small feat and was really appreciated. > > The result is better than I could have imagined. The attention to detail and quality of workmanship is evident in every aspect of the renovation, particularly in the beautiful tiling. > > I highly recommend Urban Purpose Design to anyone looking for a thoughtful, creative, professional design-build firm. **Comment from Urban Purpose Design:** > Thank you so much Ellyn! We had a great experience working with you and Zach as well and we hope to again in the future. **★★★★★ — HU-231772423, March 2023** > David and I worked together on a professional level as I am a broker with Remax. David built a house for my client that took almost a year and a half to complete, it was a very detailed high-end build. David maintained a great work ethic and completed every task he started, he was very sympathetic and understanding with my clients demanding style. I highly recommend David as a builder and architect. Thank you David for a fantastic house and a happy client. Matt Rhule with Remax Center in Atlanta. **★★★★★ — HU-742783466, March 2023** > David was wonderful, his creative genius and his uniqueness in his design work, as an architect and also as a builder, are exemplary, he hit every detail and managed the crews very thoroughly. Would definitely use David for my next project! **★★★★★ — surriola, Jan. 2021** > David and Michelle did an amazing job on my kitchen remodel! Working with a tight budget and a quirky older home we ended up with a beautiful, functional and warm space. I appreciate the design/build the process to make decisions that helped with a smooth build. They are also a joy to work with. Would definitely work with them again and recommend them whenever I can. **★★★★★ — Greg Sullivan, June 2018** > Had a great experience and had great communication. Project went as expected.

The principal, David Hauser, has a strong attention to detail, is focused on client service, and also is knowledgeable about the real estate markets in Atlanta and Savannah, where I have been involved in investment and development. His graphic design services really take a lot of the effort out the front-end and simplified my decision-making.

Although our budget did not quite meet with our goals I would highly recommend David and the UP Team. **★★★★★ — Jim Halpern, June 2018** > I hired David to design and build a modern farmhouse for spec sale. The UP team brought creative energy, prompt service and successful project to me and my partners. David and the team at Urban were a pleasure to work with and delivered a product we were able to sell quickly. ## Selected projects - [Poncey Highlands Kitchen Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/poncey-highlands-kitchen-renovation-pj-vj~2372011) -

I mulled over this decision for six months and I’m so upset that I chose the wrong color. I knew that it would be a shade lighter than my cabinets, but it had some ivory veining that I thought would complement one another well. Instead, when you walk in my kitchen it just looks like the counters and cabinets clash. Ivory cabinets, white counters. My walls, crown molding, and plantation shutters are all ivory, so I fear it’s not as simple as just painting my cabinets. What would you do? Just live with it, or...? Backsplash is coming in today- subway tile same color as frosty carrina counters. Obviously I’m going for the all white kitchen, as this is my dream kitchen and just my taste:) A: Reach out to local cabinet companies. find out the cost to paint the Millwork. If they don't do it ask them for a referral a lot of these companies don't do it but they may know someone who does. It should hit between 2500 and 6000. **Q: Ceiling** *(in Photo Questions)* How tall is the porch ceiling? Thank you! A: Approx. 9' **Q: Front Porch Railing** *(in Photo Questions)* Love the touch of modern. Who did/where did you get the railing? A: Stryant Construction built the railing. Look them up! They're also on Houzz. **Q: Width** *(in Photo Questions)* How wide is this porch? Thank you A: Approximately 8' wide **Q: Flooring** *(in Photo Questions)* What is the flooring material? A: Hi Gail! This is Florida Tile Matlese color Roman Gray 12x24 http://www.floridatile.com/products/maltese **Q: Floors** *(in Photo Questions)* What are the floors? A: I believe it is Daltile Exquisite Graystone. Best of luck! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-04.*
