Scott Sullivan established Sullivan Design Company in 1994. Since then he has designed hundreds of homes from the mountains to the coast of North Carolina. Sullivan Design Company is a small firm that specializes in view oriented projects.

In 2001, Scott ventured into the stock house plans business and established a relationship with Southern Living magazine and has been featured in that magazine along with Coastal Living magazine and the Southern Living House Plans magazine.

Both our custom and stock plans draw inspiration from historical precedents. It is our philosophy that design should honor the classic styles by incorporating that influence into modern needs of people.

**★★★★★ — Laurie Case, Oct. 2015**

> Scott just finished the design of our new ocean front home in Pine Knoll Shores, NC. His design far exceeded our expectations. He was a pleasure to work with, a great listener, and made the design process virtually stress free. We love the interesting roof lines on the outside, as much as we love his design of rooms with character (and great ceiling heights and lines) on the inside. Thanks again Scott for a terrific job!

**★★★★★ — User, Sept. 2015**

> I have had the privilege of working with Scott and his team on numerous occasions. He has always been able to not only meet the desires of the clients but provide exceptional service with clear and concise plans that make working on his projects easy.

**★★★★★ — User, May 2014**

> Our company has collaborated  with Scott Sullivan of Sullivan Design Company on many projects over the years and we have found him to be a thoughtful and talented designer of beautiful custom homes.  He listens to client's needs and desires and with careful consideration to property layout and restrictions he puts on paper homes that we are proud to build for our clients.

**★★★★★ — marisarsc, Feb. 2014**

> Scott helped us design our dream home.  He was able to take our ideas and make them a reality.  Scott was patient throughout our design process always open for new ideas or changes.

**★★★★★ — beverlylmcgee, Feb. 2014**

> Scott Sullivan is a talented professional and visionary.  His easy going personality and knowledge made him a pleasure to work with.  The custom home design process was exciting, very creative and stress free.  He listened to what we wanted, added suggestions, and within a few consultations developed what we wanted.  Our custom home is in a neighborhood with an Architectural Review Committee.  Scott was very knowledgable of the process and handled everything from preliminary plans to final approval.  We would strongly recommend him to others without hesitation.

**★★★★★ — jimbubbawade, Feb. 2014**

> I'm a builder....  Scott Sullivan has designed custom spec homes for me for fifteen years..  his homes always attract attention.   He is very good at listening to me about what I want as a builder, and meeting my needs.   He has a great eye for detail, and his homes always have a great deal of street appeal.   His plans are very good, my subs always comment on how clear they are.   And he's a good guy !
