His exceptional vision, attention to detail and respect for functionality remodeled the house I liked into the home I love. In addition to compliments from neighbors and friends, complete strangers have stopped by to admire and take photographs of our home. **★★★★★ — bbradley04, April 2014** > Sarkesian Architects designed our lodge in northern Michigan. We spent our first season there last summer/fall and it is all we hoped for and truly our dream house. **★★★★★ — agadore, June 2013** > We decided to gut our master bathroom and begin from scratch. We live several states away from Jon's firm yet were able, through the use of Houzz ,to relay working ideas to him. We needed to make our bathroom handicapped accesible and Jon's extensive remodeling experience and knowledge of the latest products available for bathrooms helped us make choices so our bath worked for us. > We really appreciated Jon's 'can do' attitude, his attention to detail, that he was easily accessible for questions ,and returned phone calls in a timely fashion. His extensive experience enabled him to point out features of design that we had not considered. > We had the plans in our hands on time as promised and are ready to start the project. The design is a outstanding and precisely matches our needs - a masterful combination of form and function. **★★★★★ — elin37, May 2013** > Jon designed a new entry way for our very dated 1960's colonial. The drawings look great, and our contractor bids are right in the range Jon estimated for the project. The final product looks great and the neighbors keep stopping by to compliment the new look. **★★★★★ — Nicole Reinkensmeyer, March 2013** > We consulted with Jon to help us with reshape an old 3300 sq ft outdated quad level home into a 4000 sq ft Tuscan inspired dream. Jon worked with us on an extremely tight deadline, one week, to do full phase 1 drawings and sketches. We are so grateful for Jon's help and time, considering phase 1 typically takes a month or longer. > > What really impressed us was Jon's professionalism and passion for his work. He had a lot of great ideas and input for us, and the finished proposal was absolutely terrific. The project was going to cost around $400,000 to complete in its entirety, and Jon's proprietary formula for calculating cost, which uses data from 100s of previous jobs, was within 5% of the contractor's bid. > > We ultimately decided not to purchase the home and move forward with the gut and renovation due to personal reasons. However, Jon is without a doubt going to be our architect should another project ever arise. > > My wife and I cannot recommend Jon enough. When it comes to choosing an architect, you cannot go wrong. ## Selected projects - [Metamora, MI](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/metamora-mi-pj-vj~38002) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 15 - [Bloomfield Township, MI](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bloomfield-township-mi-pj-vj~38008) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Birmingham Craftsman](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/birmingham-craftsman-pj-vj~38591) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Northern Michigan hunting lodge](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/northern-michigan-hunting-lodge-pj-vj~38597) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Royal Oak Craftsman](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/royal-oak-craftsman-pj-vj~488229) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Bungalow addition and renovation in Royal Oak, MI](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bungalow-addition-and-renovation-in-royal-oak-mi-pj-vj~488296) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Royal Oak, Mi Bungelow](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/royal-oak-mi-bungelow-pj-vj~487956) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Tree House - S.E.

It's my own home. **Q: What colour grey is on the wall** *(in Photo Questions)* I love the walls...what colour and brand of paint A: I will check with the client and get back to you. **Q: What are the plants you have used in the front please, looks lovely. Thanks** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Underneath the grape arbor we have hydrangeas. In front of the porch there are box-woods. Hope this helps. **Q: Spruce Up the Front of Our Home** *(in Design Dilemma)* We need help with the front of our home. We have a small porch and balcony. I like the idea of beefing up the columns and creating a uniform look. I also like the color scheme of gray with black shutters, white trim/pillars and possibly mustard yellow doors. However, I am open for ideas. I don't know if we should paint the brick or not??? A: I recently did a design for the renovation of a very similar house...this might be helpful to you.
