This was my first renovation project and she was there to guide me every step of the way. She was incredibly patient with me and led me through some very difficult decisions. She constantly went above and beyond while helping to manage the contractor and the trades effectively. Without her strong skills, calm demeanor and intelligence this project would not have happened. I am so glad I hired Ampersand. **★★★★★ — Alex Lee, Feb. 2017** > I have worked with Amy Lopez-Cepero on several projects forboth my residence and office, with budget ranging from $500,000 to $2 million. She is a true professional who possess both design and technical skills. She is an excellent project manager who can get things done on budget and as on time as one can expect for any architectural projects! And importantly, when working with the contractors, Amy stood clearly on the side of representing the client's point of view, which surprisingly, is not always the case with architects. I would recommend Ampersand Architecture highly without any reservation. **★★★★★ — Eva Kim, Feb. 2017** > My husband and I worked very closely with Amy on our first apartment renovation project. She is professional, honest, extremely responsive, attentive to detail, and has a similar and pleasant aesthetic preference which made it all enjoyable to work with her. We would hire Amy again, if needed, and we will continue to recommend her to others. **★★★★★ — rr2017, Jan. 2017** > We have been working with Ampersand Architecture for a while and are extremely happy with their services. They are talented and hard working, professional and very pleasant to work with. Ampersand Architecture are involved in every aspect of the project, coordinate the different experts and oversee its progress. They are very reliable and we highly recommend them! **★★★★★ — Taylor Ullman, Jan. 2017** > Amy and team worked tirelessly to make sure every detail was considered and to our liking. She had an open mind, listened hard to what we were trying to achieve and facilitated decision making with tremendous thoughtfulness and patience. She made the project positive, open and fun and went above and beyond to work seamlessly and flexibly with the contractor and subs on our behalf.. We also felt that our project came first and any problem along the way had an immediate and thoughtful solution. We could not have imagined a better process and outcome. ## Selected projects - [Mid Century Modern House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mid-century-modern-house-pj-vj~2250676) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 14 - Description: JSA (Joel Sanders Architect), Design Architect and Ampersand Architecture, Architect of Record Photo by Mikiko Kikuyama - [Essex Loft](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/essex-loft-pj-vj~2308810) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 13 - [Gramercy Park Loft](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/gramercy-park-loft-pj-vj~2250709) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 [See all 3 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/ampersand-architecture-pfvwus-pf~345738025) ## Ideabooks - [amyjlopez's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/55874856/list/amyjlopez-s-ideas) — 2 ideas [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/ampersandnyc) ## Community Q&A **Q: Shower tile link?** *(in Photo Questions)* Could you please tell me what the tile in the shower is?
