He is in the process of designing our new home in Flagstaff, AZ. He stays on top of the process without delays. He works with only the finest builders to make sure the project stays on task. I highly recommend Daniel Eastburn for the job! > Approximate completion date-2021 **★★★★★ — Lani Calbert, Sept. 2015** > Daniel Eastburn and his staff at Design Barbarians did an amazing job for us designing our new home at Pine Canyon Golf Club in Flagstaff. Daniel really "listened" to what "we" wanted and did whatever he could to meet our goals! Building in the pines, we were concerned about the home being dark, Daniel integrated things like a light well which brought in tons of natural light - his thoughtful attention to detail really made a difference!! He also made numerous site visits throughout the construction process, attended builder meetings and other sub meetings regarding our project, the outcome was something we are totally thrilled with! We highly recommend Daniel Eastburn/Design Barbarians! **Comment from Design Barbarians Architects:** > Thanks Guys--- we're really proud of your house and loved working with you both. > Lani and her designer Julie White really made it sing! **★★★★★ — sallylynch46, Aug. 2015** > Design Barbarian Architects were the best choice for us to build our dream home in the pines. It included full architecture services and coordination with the interior designer and contractor. They were creative helped to cut our costs and even came up with a garage addition in July 2015. They were so accommodating to our needs and wants and did above and beyond for us. Daniel Eastburn will definitely be your friend for life at the end of your project. **Comment from Design Barbarians Architects:** > Thank you so much Sally! It was a dream project-- We had a good Team: Denise Weber Interiors, Jon Poindexter with Builder Showcase Construction. **★★★★★ — michelleandersonaz, Aug. 2015** > My husband and I hired Daniel Eastburn in 2014 to design our vacation home in Flagstaff, AZ. Our lot posed some challenges and Daniel was able to deliver exactly what we wanted despite this. His homes stand out with their attention to detail and handsome elevations. Daniel listened to us and was able to fit all our wish list items into the design. He had a great rapport with our General Contractor and our Interior Designer. He stayed with the project all the way to the end and beyond. We moved into our home in April and couldn't be happier! **Comment from Design Barbarians Architects:** > Thank you-we did have some site challenges but I feel we got the house flow working beautifully. I really had a good time working thru all the challenges with you guys and the Team: Nancy Gillenwater, Interiors-Jon Poindexter, Builders Showcase Construction. **★★★★★ — cpedvle, June 2014** > Just hired his company to help with a detached garage im building.
