### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Gary Bailey, July 2016**

> We contacted Miles at Milestone Studio and made arrangements to meet at our project site. Miles was on time brought a positive attitude. Miles listened to our thoughts and dreams and presented us with some fresh ideas. He came prepared and delivered us a design in a timely manor. Miles worked closely with us to develop a design that we decided to build. I would highly recommend Milestone studio to anyone who is considering building a home.

**★★★★ — Daniel W, Oct. 2014**

> Miles designed our house for us last year and we are finally about to move in.  He listened to the reqs we had before starting and turned them into a great floor plan.  Thanks!

**★★★★★ — douglaspeterson, Oct. 2014**

> Miles Osterman was recommended by our contractor, and that plus an initial meeting convinced my wife and I to hire him to design our new home.
> We had a basic idea of what we wanted and Miles was more than happy to take our basic idea and refine it.
> He was busy with several projects but completed ours in a timely manner and ready for permit application.
> We have not started construction yet, but site work is underway and things should be started sometime in November.
> To sum up, Miles did a great job for us and I would highly recommend him.

**★★★★★ — tmiller48, Oct. 2014**

> We interviewed others about designing our new home but Miles stood out.  Miles was open to our ideas, which were not the norm in the area that we were building, and we appreciated that.  Miles had great input that incorporated our design needs and our wish list.  We also appreciated Miles willingness to do plan revisions as needed and in representing our interest by presenting our design esthetics to our home strict owners architectural control panel.

**★★★★★ — thibler1, Feb. 2014**

> Miles designed a covered, two tiered, backyard deck and patio for us. He was kind enough to
> structure it in such a way that we could build it in two stages allowing us to evaluate the central design
> before committing to the entire plan. He was very good at communicating with both my wife and me,
> which was very important to us. He has very good ideas and is comfortable thinking out of the box He
> welcomes and almost insists on involving a/your contractor early in the process as part of his desire to
> help set expectations for the project especially as it relates to cost. He sets these expectations without
> being harsh or condescending and he respects the importance of your project big or small. He also
> supports the concept of ‘sweat equity" for the Do It Yourselfers out there, which we are. We will
> definitely call on Miles in the future for any design work we may need.

**★★★★ — nascargirl75, Jan. 2014**

> He has some great ideas, seems to know his info and flow of the project.  Always on time, very polite and respectful, hard worker.

**★★★★★ — tracyterry, Jan. 2014**

> My wife and I just broke ground on our dream house in El Dorado Hills.  One
> of the reasons we are so excited about this project is Miles Ostermann.  We
> hired Miles to draw up our house plans, and he certainly gave us more than
> we expected.  Miles draws up plans with more than just an artistic angle.
> He also brings a practical side to building…where you not only know your
> house will look good, but will also be livable and practical to build.  This
> ability has actually saved us money and made our house a home.
>
> Miles also acted as our liaison with the Serrano architectural committee.
> He represented our interests in meetings with the committee.  In this way,
> Miles more than met our expectations.
>
> In conclusion, we are extremely pleased with all our interactions with Miles
> Ostermann.  With his help, we know we will have a house we can be proud
> of…and live in….for many years, and I would certainly recommend Miles to
> anyone needing his expertise.
>
> Sincerely,

**★★★★★ — wizar, Dec. 2013**

> Milestone Studio designed our recent remodel.  Miles worked closely with us to come up with a wonderful great room plan and master bedroom addition for our mid '70's ranch style home.  He knew what it would take to see our vision and work within our budget.  We now have the home we always wanted!

**★★★★★ — lci2013, Dec. 2013**

> One of the best architects we have had the pleasure to work with. Really wraps himself around your project goals and budget and timely delivers his plans and drawings. Very thorough, understands home construction we highly recommend this firm.

**★★★★★ — angelakoli, Dec. 2013**

> My husband and I had Miles draw up plans for us for a custom home.  Miles was great to work with, very detailed orientated.  Miles always took the time to make sure he understood our needs.  Our house is in the process of being built and we are beginning to see the fruit of Miles's labor and we are very happy with the results.  We would highly recommend Miles and if we have any future needs we would choose Miles again.

**★★★★★ — allanpriest, Dec. 2013**

> Miles (Milestone Studio) provided an innovative design for a ~900 square foot addition to our vacation home in South Lake Tahoe.  He was very easy to work with, solicited and included our input and questions throughout the design process, and created an efficient and cost-effective luxurious addition to our home. During construction, Miles was readily available and timely in providing direction and clarifications to sub-contractors and issuing revised plans to address changes made by the homeowner.   He was consistent in his focus on practical design elements while ensuring a high quality end result. I would highly recommend Milestone Studio for design services for any size project.

**★★★★ — 9carter, Dec. 2013**

> Milestone Studio performed design services for the construction of my new home.   Miles was extremely detail oriented, with a strong sense for proportion, constructability and cost effective design.   We got exactly what we wanted without the need for changes or compromises.   Mile's design was well coordinated and anticipated all the functional and structural requirements.    He works extremely well with the contractors and engineers.

## Community Q&A

**Q: Pendant lights - gorgeous** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you share where you got the pendants from.

A: Sorry, the builder pulled in an outside interior designer so I was not in the loop for that part.

**Q: color of cabinet paint, what tiles on backsplash, origin of range hood** *(in Photo Questions)*

Love this kitchen and calm vibe. can you share color name on cabinets, what tiles (they look like they hava a low sheen), and Love the range hood w/brass accents & where it came from

A: Suzanne, The owner on that project was also the interior designer, so I don't know what colors they ended up with sorry. There are a few online color matching software programs that could help. Best I can do.

**Q: Where can I get the front door? Is it local to Sacramento area too?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Got this from the Owner/Contractor: front door was a custom door from Jeld-wen IWP.  However I have since used The Pivot Door Company and they are great to work with as well.  Andrew Kelly from Nor Cal Allied Doors can order the IWP door and The Pivot Door Co you can go direct to their website.

**Q: Wall sconces?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Hello, can you tell me where you found your wall sconces, please?

A: The owner found those. I'm not sure where they located them...sorry.

**Q: pool table** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where did you find the pool table?  Will you share manufacturer info please?

A: You would need to check with the interior designer. I did the Architecture and house design. The interior pro is Tanna Johns 4johns@comcast.net

**Q: What paint color?  Also, what wood did you use on the ceiling? Thanks!** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Sorry, not sure. I would check with the contractor. Wichert Homes
