♫ "We call architecture silent music"- Goethe

In music, being a good listener is essential to being a good musician.  With my practice, I make a point to carefully listen to my clients and collaborate with them throughout the entire architectural process.  I also pay special attention to context, as good architecture comes from the site and is not simply plopped down upon it.  My design philosophy frequently makes use of musical principles such as rhythm, composition, and harmonic proportion.

**★★★★★ — Erin Miller, Nov. 2021**

> Jason was our favorite part of the down-to-the-studs kitchen and basement remodel on our original 1938 home in Denver. Our home had substantial design limitations that required precise measurements to make sure the new design would meet current code requirements. On top of which, we had an ambitious wish list. Jason really took the time to listen to our wants; he understood how to keep the vibe of our home/neighborhood and translate that into a modern more functional update; and made sure he understood what we were going for. Nothing we asked for was beyond his creative limits. His attention to detail and clear communication made him an absolute joy to work with. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Jason. We greatly look forward to working with Jason on our next project!

**★★★★★ — Glenn S, Nov. 2021**

> I was connected with Jason through our contractor. We were interested in changing a 1980 floor plan including removing walls, and changing the location and orientation of all first floor spaces including the kitchen and bathroom. This was a tough footprint to work with and Jason was everything we hoped for and more in such a critical element of our house remodel. His ideas were fantastic and he was willing to listen to all of our ideas as we worked through the final plan. Jason revised the plans multiple times to accommodate changes and always did so quickly and we felt like we had a vested partner in our goals. Price was right and I would recommend Jason to anyone looking to make thoughtful and innovative changes to their property!

**★★★★★ — nowakiwsky, Jan. 2015**

> Jason designed our new lakehouse on a private water ski lake north of Denver.  He was able to translate our vision into reality.  He worked well with the limitations of the lot and our square footage desires and created a stunning home that is very liveable.  We were able to work with him remotely as Jason was located in the area of the lakehome while we were living in the mountains.  He was also available for consultations during the building process as issues were encountered, as they inevitably are.

**★★★★★ — janesalland, Dec. 2014**

> We heartily recommend Jason Ruby! Jason was very professional, creative and easy to work with. He was thorough and had great attention to detail. Jason created a beautiful addition to our home that shows amazing use of space and light.
> He worked up multiple options for us to consider, all within the constraints of limited space. He was always easy to reach and very willing to listen to our ideas. He considered all of our desires and made sure to include everything we wanted in the limited space we had available. The final product is a delight that generates ohhs and ahhs from all of our visitors.

**★★★★★ — carlynparker, Sept. 2014**

> I recommended Jason to some clients of mine who purchased a condominium in an old historic church building.  They wanted a remodel to upgrade the space, add privacy on the second floor and enlarge the space by opening up the bell tower.  Jason's design and choice of materials created a living space which was  breathtaking!  My clients really enjoyed working with him and he collaborated with them at every step.  The final product was a unique four story living space.  You can see photos on Houzz by referring to The Abbey Remodel.

**★★★★★ — thludlow, Aug. 2013**

> We thought we had a clear idea of what we wanted when we contacted Jason.  We had been playing with all kinds of ideas and plans and concocted what we thought was a great design.  At every step along the way Jason built on the ideas we had and made them better, more practical and more interesting. Working with Jason was an outstanding and affordable experience.  He remained open to new ideas throughout, and presented numerous ideas of his own.  ( He built a little model with three alternate roof designs.) Unlike some architects who think of it as "their" house, Jason always thought of it as our house and remained flexible to changes we wanted or needed to make. I never felt overcharged for Jason's services.  It is an amazing home.  We continue to marvel at what a great job we (architect and owner) did.  The design works so very well for our lifestyle, and the design elements continue to thrill us again and again.  Jason Ruby gets our highest recommendation.  He is terrific.  Hire him now before he becomes famous.

  - Description: The current owner of this Victorian in Denver's Historic Witter Cofield District desired a 2-story front covered porch structure to replace what had been removed many years prior to her ownership of the house. A chance encounter with a previous occupant of the house yielded two 1940's-era photographs which gave an idea of the original structure's appearance. Studying the photos carefully, the scale and details of the original design were interpreted and replicated as closely as possible with the…

## Community Q&A

**Q: what color is that?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What color is the house?

A: Hello, I'm afraid I do not know specifically what color the addition is.  The stucco was painted to compliment the existing house's brick.

**Q: What is the height of the skylight shaft?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the size of the skylight?

A: The skylight is 2'-10&quot; X 2'-10&quot;.  The ceiling is 8' high, and the shaft goes up from there to the roof; the shaft measures about 2' on the shallow side of the roof slope, and 3'-9&quot; on the deeper side.  Hope that helps.

**Q: The fireplace seems real shallow, do you mind sharing the source?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hi Qian,
The fireplace was existing and was salvaged and incorporated into the new remodel design.  I am not sure specifically what type it is, but I did measure it and the depth is 1'-9&quot;.  The width is 3'-5&quot; and the height is 2'-9&quot;.  Attached are some photos after the initial demo work.  Hope that helps.  If you want to know more, I can likely get in touch with the builder as he might have the information on who makes it.
