**★★★★★ — suzbl, July 2023**

> Blake’s vision for our house, after listening to our wants and needs, was fantastic. Our “very 90’s” home was not only dated, but some of the best outdoor deck space lakeside had become dysfunctional. Our house has been transformed into a space that’s not only comfortable and welcoming, but works for both entertaining and more quiet endeavors. We love it. Thanks Blake!

**★★★★★ — Diane Coulson, Oct. 2018**

> R+R Design did an amazing job on the design for the remodel of our home.  Both interior and exterior changes exceeded our expectations.  Blake Ramsey listened to our wants and put together a plan that WOWed us from the beginning, one small round of changes and we were under construction!  First rate service and beautiful design.

**★★★★★ — Cindy Praeger, June 2018**

> If you are looking to design your dream home, Blake is the architect to help you. We first worked with Blake to help us design an outdoor veranda on our house. He did such an amazing job that every person that visited wanted one too! We recently bought properly on the lake and built a custom home. Blake was our first and only choice as our architect.  We started by creating a list of all functional needs in our home. Them we moved on to look and feel. Blake nailed it! Our home is welcoming, beautiful and everything we wanted it to be. Blake takes pride in creating something unique and special for every client. If you are looking to build or renovate, I would highly recommend Blake.

**★★★★★ — Dawn Wilson, June 2018**

> We had a very challenging renovation project for our lake home and Blake did a phenomenal job bringing it to life! One of the many things that impressed us about Blake is that he has a very strong understanding of building costs, so designs with our budget in mind. We changed course a few times with our ideas and Blake continually worked with us until we got it perfect. Blake seamlessly blended our new addition to the existing house where you will think it's always been there. I strongly recommend Blake for any design project!

**★★★★★ — mekmet, June 2013**

> Blake did such a great job from listening to what we wanted to executing his designs in a very timely manner to making any changes we wanted. Now that the home is starting to take shape we can see all his hard work come to life and could not be more happy with the result.  If you want an architect who focuses on your vision and really listens to what you want then you can not go wrong with R+R designs.

- [Hampton Views](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hampton-views-pj-vj~7182511)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 28
  - Description: Hamptons Style Lake Home. What started as a renovation soon became apparent it was more of a tear down of the existing. Although we kept about 75% of the existing foundation, the rest was a total rebuild. The clients were very into an indoor/outdoor experience and wanted as many great views to the outside as possible. I'm always up for a challenge. "If you are looking to design your dream home, Blake is the architect to help you... " Cindy P.

  - Description: English Manor with a French Flair. Occupying two smaller lots, this Custom Home takes advantage of a spacious front along the street.

  - Description: A mix of Craftsman and Traditional Styles gives a comfortable formality to this custom home. Located at The Point at Lake Norman in Mooresville, North Carolina, this builder desired his home to be a unique blend of detailing and efficiency using small home techniques in planning the layout to accommodate a variety of spaces. This One Story look actually has a spacious attic structured as a 2nd floor and a full-sized, daylight basement overlooking the water at the end of the cove.

- [Lake Norman Rear Makeover](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-norman-rear-makeover-pj-vj~101246)
  - Location: Cornelius, NC
  - Photos: 5
  - Description: Make-over for a rear patio on Lake Norman. A typical 90's 'cape cod' home on the lake. Nicely designed on the front in a Southern Coastal style, but with a very tiny, open patio and a gargantuan concrete stair has no 'curb' appeal to the lakeside of the home. The owners envisioned something that looked as if it had been there all the time and matched the rest of the house. Using a mix of Classical detailing with a Nantucket flavor, the house ties together nicely with the rest of the elevations.…
- [Face Lift on Lake Wylie](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/face-lift-on-lake-wylie-pj-vj~244982)

  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 18
  - Description: Keeping in my tradition of taking anything on, this ugly duckling took some thought to turn into the beautiful swan song the owner wanted. In considering all aspects of the house we set to give this renovation a Sedona feel.
- [Radical Transformation at Lake Norman](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/radical-transformation-at-lake-norman-pj-vj~3147856)
  - Location: Cornelius, NC
  - Photos: 13
  - Description: When I first saw the existing home I was thinking that this might be one of the biggest challenges in renovation. But I've always enjoyed a challenge of making a 'new' home out of that's 'design' challenged. Most houses I given a face-lift to at least had something to work with - Decent massing. This however was going to take some radical surgery. After talking with the couple who owned the house and understanding the desperation they were in to do 'something' to make things better, and talking…
- [A Grandeur Expansion](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/a-grandeur-expansion-pj-vj~3564691)
  - Location: Shelby, NC
  - Photos: 24
  - Description: Situated on Kings Mountain Lake this project majorly transforms a sizable, contemporary lake home into a grand scale residence with a mix of old world and classical overtones. With too much investment in the existing property only modifying and adding on made much better fiscal sense than starting over.
- [Pool House with Bar, Gym & Wellness Center](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pool-house-with-bar-gym-and-wellness-center-pj-vj~3151409)
  - Location: Davidson, NC
  - Photos: 5
  - Description: "Our family gave Blake a long and varied list of functional and style requirements for our pool house/fitness center/guest house/sports bar/outdoor living space and grill area. He was able to add all the functions onto our existing house and no one can tell the addition is not part of the original house. Blake worked flawlessly with our builder on a very complex design. We highly recommend Blake." - Tony & Kathy B.
- [Lake James with a New View](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-james-with-a-new-view-pj-vj~101222)
  - Location: Lake James, NC
  - Photos: 5
  - Description: Renovations to existing lake home near Charlotte. Primary work was to redesign the rear deck into something more attractive and functional having an outdoor living feel. "You’ll see a (lower scale) copy of your deck a couple of doors down and our next door neighbor copied the truss you designed and the front rock stoop… Imitation is the biggest form of flattery, right??? Thanks for all your help – we absolutely love what you’ve designed (and so do the neighbors)!!!" - Frank & Michelle G.
