She had time for an actual conversation, there wasn't a rush. She listened to us. > > Her style of working with customers is consultative and encouraging.

I appreciate your trust in my firm! ### All 51 reviews **★★★★★ — sallyawood, Jan. 2025** > Anne was amazing in helping us take our house that was not meeting our growing needs but was in the correct location and transforming it in ways that were better than we could have ever imagined. She was a careful listener, which showed from the first set of plans that incorporated so much of what we had asked for and things we didn't even know we needed/wanted. Her design was beautiful and fits well within our historic neighborhood. It was also functional with things like closets in every corner they would fit, knowing our family of five is always in need of storage. Anne was also very open to feedback and revised anything we asked. She also worked with us to help us meet the neighborhood zoning rules as well as those of the City of Atlanta. We would recommend her without any reservation! We used her for a big remodel in 2015 and another in 2023. **★★★★★ — Gavin, Jan. 2025** > Anne was a pleasure to work with from the initial concept meeting to the final completion of our renovation and addition. She worked closely with our builder and designer to achieve the home that we always dreamed of. Highly recommend her and her talented team. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks, Gavin! You and Chris were awesome clients - thanks for trusting us with your project. **★★★★★ — HU-959383808, Dec. 2024** > We worked extensively with Anne over many months to design our dream renovation for our home in Decatur. We would highly recommend this firm to anyone in our area who might be looking for architectural designs. Anne was so easy and laid back to work with. She is also a great listener. The first major draft of the design she walked us through was exactly what we were hoping for. We had only a few small follow up questions. We were thrilled with what she came up with, and we also appreciated she captured it so well in a single pass. **★★★★★ — Julie Smith, Dec. 2024** > We worked with Anne to renovate a kitchen/dining space and are so thrilled with the results. She really understood what kind of lifestyle we wanted to create with this design and managed to make it feel like plenty of space. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you so much, Julie! I love how your space turned out - hope you are enjoying it. **★★★★★ — swhitaker332002, Jan. 2023** > Anne was so easy to work with and delivered exactly what we were going for. We didn’t feel rushed and she talked through our question, explaining what would work and what wouldn’t and why. We love our home and feel it was designed perfectly for our family! **★★★★★ — User, Nov. 2022** > Anne and her team are a pleasure to work with. They listen to the customer and give expert comments and advice during the process. Their support during the project has been invaluable to us. Their support during the project has been invaluable to us, even though our project has dragged on and is still in progress. > I can highly recommend Anne Architecture. **★★★★★ — Michael Herget, Nov. 2022** > We had a wonderful experience working with Anne and her team. Great communication and responsiveness made them easy to work with. Their design for our home captured our vision and exceeded expectations. We’re so happy with the results. Would highly recommend them for your next project. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you, Michael. I hope you and Jessica and the littles are doing well! **★★★★★ — Jill Joyner, Nov. 2022** > Anne and her team drew up beautiful plans for an ADU to house my studio. She knows her city codes and ordinances and designs accordingly, so you don't have to deal with violations and plan changes half-way into the process. I love Anne's ability to think outside of the box and she has a warm personality. **★★★★★ — Brett Albino, Nov. 2022** > Anne was highly recommended by designers and builders in our community. We were specifically looking for an architect that had experience with older homes and also understood the historical code and standards for our neighborhood. I can't say enough wonderful things about Anne and her team. She captured the needs of our family immediately and really listened to what we envisioned. It was important to us that our renovation feel seamless and blend in with the existing 100 year-old footprint. We were so pleased how Anne honored our wishes. Our home feels like it has been this way forever and that is exactly what we wanted. **★★★★★ — Olivia Skey, Nov. 2022** > As downsizing retirees, my husband and I bought an in-town lot and engaged Anne Architecture to design our new home. It was a pleasure to work with Anne and her colleagues - they are warm, welcoming, friendly, and professional. They focus on meeting clients’ desires and expectations, are engaged with their clients and projects, and are fairly priced in the market. We appreciated their knowledge, expertise, and creativity as well as their willingness to meet with us in person or on Zoom. When we start building, we hope they will allow us to put a “Designed by Anne Architecture” sign in the yard so we can let everybody know how pleased we are with their work! **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you, Olivia! You and Fred have been an absolute delight to work with. Of course you can put a sign up! Beth and I are so excited to see your house come to life. Thank you for trusting us to help you get there. **★★★★★ — Emly Cartwrite, Nov. 2022** > She designed a covered patio for us. It came together so nicely it looks like it has always been part of our house. She was patient and spent time listening to what we were interested in and what would work best for us. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you, Emily. I'm so glad you got your project done when you did! Hopefully your new porch gave you a little more breathing room during the pandemic. I'm realizing that I have not seen it completed since it was done during that time. I'd love to get over there some time! **★★★★★ — carolecc, Nov. 2022** > Anne worked with us in developing a conceptual plan for the expansion of our small 1940’s cape farmhouse on Cape Cod. We wanted a home that would accommodate our family including grown children and grandchildren with enough comfortable space without overbuilding. Because this home had belonged to a beloved family member, we wanted to keep the integrity of the home and stay as true to its original character as well as the surrounding area as was feasible. Anne listened to our wishes and rambling ideas and after traveling to the site and experiencing the unique character of this area, she really “got” what we were hoping for. There were some challenges with the location of a septic system, setbacks, and local codes and zoning restrictions and the hope of keeping two large cedar trees on the property. She was undaunted by any of these! She was always cheerful and upbeat and offered solutions and suggestions on navigating each challenge. Anne’s knowledge of all aspects of designing and building a home is impressive. We had to make some design changes due to the current cost of building on Cape Cod, but Anne took this in stride and the design is just what we had dreamed of: a comfortable cozy home to be enjoyed for many years to come. I want to add that Anne is such a warm, relatable person, easy to talk with and always willing to listen and offer alternatives. We highly recommend Anne/Anne Architecture. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Carole and Mike - I loved loved loved working with you! It was so special to be working on the little house that means so much to you. I'm looking forward to seeing the addition come to life!! **★★★★★ — HU-249603488, Nov. 2022** > Anne and her team did a fabulous redesign of our new home on Lake Harding. Their thoughtful approach incorporated our wish list along with their design expertise to create an entire revamp that makes every inch more functional and fantastic. We were thrilled with the design and look ward to getting started on the remodel. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > What an amazing piece of property you have! We were thrilled to have the chance to transform the existing house into something that too more advantage of the views and gave you the spaces that you need to host your family. Laura and I are so in love with your plan - I hope you can get it built sooner than later and that we'll get an invite to come see it! **★★★★★ — Blair Pritchett, Nov. 2022** > Excellent design work for our new home with special attention to our rooflines and dormers !! She is gifted architect **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > So glad I could offer you a solution to your roofline problem! It was a fun challenge. **★★★★★ — megmcwelch, Nov. 2022** > Anne and her team were so great to work with -- they "get it." She had so many great ideas from start to finish (plans, designing, recommending contractors, etc.).We would definitely work with them again!! **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks Megan! I'm so glad that you had that extra space during the pandemic. Of course we had no idea that was coming!! I drive by every now and again and I love seeing your pink door - you really needed that with a house full of boys! **★★★★★ — Seth Eisenberg, Nov. 2022** > Anne Sciarrone and Anne Architecture have provided architectural design services for both my residential and commercial projects in Atlanta, GA. I highly recommend their services for any renovation construction project. Anne demonstrated incredible knowledge and thoughtful design recommendations as she guided us through the development process. She hit every timeline metric and was completely reliable in her deliverables. > > It is my pleasure to give Anne Sciarrone and Anne Architecture this Five Star Review and I would not hesitate to employ their services again. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you, Seth! I really appreciate you trusting me to help you. I can't wait to see your office all complete this week! **★★★★★ — Meg Bear, Nov. 2022** > I enjoyed working with Anne very much! Anne brought some creative ideas to the table as I sought to reconfigure my historic 1925 bungalow to be more liveable in the 21st century. Anne was responsive and I thought we communicated well. No changes to the plan were needed by my contractor to bring the vision to reality. I think having such good plans helped my project stay on time and on budget. I was pleased with the result, and would consult Anne again if needed. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks so much, Meg! Loved how it worked out for you to make better use of the space that you had. Hope you are enjoying that new dreamy bathroom! **★ — Julie Jabaley, Nov. 2022** > Horrible experience. Paid for a design that absolutely did NOT meet our budget or our needs. I contacted this firm based on recommendations through Houzz. I was very specific with my budget for a master suite reno and fairly specific with wants, though open to ideas. Anne outlined the process, which was supposed to be ITERATIVE. We got back drawings that were in a much more complete stage and that, with time to consider, we had decided did not meet our needs. Additionally, we were extremely skeptical that the design could be rendered within our budget. When that idea was shared, Anne was not amenable to making the project work. We paid approximately $2200 for nothing. Later ended up paying another architect for plans. The final $1000 was really just to make her go away. Nightmare. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Hi Julie, I tried to give you a call this weekend, but you did not answer. I was surprised to see this review show up over four years after our work together ended. Yes, we got carried away in our enthusiasm for your project and took it a little further than we typically would for a first pass. We did this with the honest belief that we were addressing every one of the items that you had on your wish list for what you described as a “primo” master bedroom “retreat”. > I had no interest in leaving you hanging with drawings that you didn't consider useful, but you never responded to my offer to complete the project. Although you had signed an hourly agreement, I was willing to cap my fee at the original total amount estimated to give you a redesign and drawings that you could permit. Instead, you accepted a credit to the amount due and we parted ways, both unsatisfied with the results. > > I trust that any potential client reading all 40+ reviews on my Houzz site will understand that your comments do not represent a probable experience working with my firm. I am proud of our 12-year track record delivering great projects with amazing Owners and we are grateful for each new opportunity. **★★★★★ — Patric Rayburn, March 2021** > The peace of mind that came from working with Anne and her team can't be overstated. Our contractor turned out to be a nightmare and on multiple occasions the plans that Anne created for our home renovation served as a resource to guard us against malpractice. On one particular occasion, the contractor wanted to charge several thousand additional dollars for an unnecessary structural change. Anne took the time to do another site visit to our home, reviewed the supposed structural issue and confirmed that the change being suggested was unnecessary. Knowing that we had her knowledge and expertise throughout the process gave us the confidence we needed to make the right decisions. I also believe the contractor behaved differently knowing we had Anne and her team in our corner. > > The kitchen and master suite renovation turned out beautifully and passed inspection. Highly recommend. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Patric - thank you so much for your kind words! **★★★★★ — HU-324838157, Jan. 2021** > Anne and her team, specifically Beth, joined us partway through our plan development. Our project was a partial interior home renovation, as well as a brand-new garage plus apartment on premise. > > Once we began to meet with them, we realized how much we needed the change from our previous architect. It was quickly evident that Anne and Beth were on a different level; they understood what we needed. They anticipated and made suggestions that were exactly what we wanted before we even realized it. > > Partially through the project, Beth noticed that our exterior existing home trim was a Frankenstein-like concoction of mismatched trim and skillfully streamlined to update and upgrade our 1922 home’s curb appeal. > > Their experience and understanding of the City of Atlanta building codes (and restrictions) was invaluable in maximizing every square foot we had. By making sure the garage was just the right size according to Code, the apartment above the garage was carefully planned to allow for optimum living space. > > Their collaborative spirit and willingness to share ideas made sure that our home renovations and final garage was/is perfect for us. Overall, our experience was very positive, and we are delighted to recommend Anne Architecture to you. **★★★★★ — Bruce Kirsch, Dec. 2020** > Anne did a fantastic job translating our vision for a new bedroom partition and set of walk-in closets into an elegant design. While we are tired of hearing circular saws and hammers, if the opportunity presents itself, we would work with her again in a heartbeat! **★★★★★ — HU-567431019, Dec. 2020** > Anne and her team of architects did a brilliant job of designing a second floor for my house. They worked with my contractor, Alair, in a seamless and productive. > I am delighted with my house and very proud of the fact that the design was made by a team of women! **★★★★★ — HU-269545036, Dec. 2020** > Nice work on our garage apartment drawings -- my wife and I were in a mess until Anne put it all together for us -- we are very happy !! **★★★★★ — HU-755141190, Dec. 2020** > Anne and her team designed a beautiful, liveable porch for us--one that exceeded our expectations. She brought great ideas and knowledge about various finishes. She helped us understand the process from the initial interview with her team to the certificate of occupancy. I highly recommend her services. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > So glad you are enjoying your porch!! Hope it has provided you all a little breathing room while you are spending more time at home. **★★★★★ — Lisa Cronic, July 2019** > Ann took our confusing and leaky deck and reconfigured it so we could really use it in a way that made sense for our family, adding stairs in the perfect spot, taking advantage of the sunshine when we wanted to lay out and gave us plenty of room to enjoy the grill area. What a vast improvement! **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Hey Lisa! Thanks for the review - I really enjoyed working with you guys!!! That WAS one confusing deck - so happy to have resolved all those crazy levels for you guys so that you can have more usable space. Love how it fits with your amazing house now - ENJOY! **★★★★★ — Irene Foran, June 2019** > Anne is an excellent listener and a professional in every way. One of our goals for renovating our home was to make sure the house looked like it belonged on the street/be respectful of the historical architecture and sizes of our neighbors homes. Anne provided creative solutions to address our storage needs, and exceeded our expectations overall. Anne met our project deadline and budget, and communicated in a timely manner. **★★★★★ — Jennifer Froneberger, May 2019** > We live in a 100-year-old home in Midtown that needed a lot of serious work. My only requirement was to stay in the spirit of the period of the home ...no walls removed ... and to keep the original floors, (nonworking) fireplaces and windows (which do not, and never will, open). Many architects I interviewed thought I was crazy, but Anne understood immediately and designed the most gorgeous, new-old home in the entire neighborhood. No detail went unnoticed, from the structural work that needed to be done, to the gorgeous trim work that I wouldn't have even known to ask for. It is still a small home (around 2000 square feet) but we use every inch of it, and every room is bright and clearly designed with love. We feel honored to live in a house that Anne designed, and look forward to many, many years of being the caretakers of such an amazing home. **★★★★★ — Chris O, April 2019** > Site-sensitive design, great follow up, and service are just a few of my fav things about working with Anne & Beth. We are delighted with our cottage/apartment addition because the project they delivered exceeded our expectations, improving every our overall property, value, aesthetic, etc. And they’re fun to work with! **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you, Chris! You guys were great fun too. So glad you are enjoying your new space! **★★★★★ — Glenwood Ross, April 2019** > It was truly a pleasure working with Anne. The job entailed remodeling our basement and building a screened in porch. This was our first home remodeling project ever and Anne and her crew expertly navigated us through the process. She helped us in setting the scope of our project considering our budget. She supplied us with a list of general contractors that we interviewed. She stayed with us from the beginning to the end of our project. Most of all though, the designs that Anne and her assistant Laura came up with were just fantastic. My wife and I agree that the project turned out better than we even imagined. We are so pleased. **★★★★★ — Debbie L, April 2019** > Anne was super to work with, as she listened to ideas and then incorporated them into the design as appropriate. She explained design decisions well and created a great looking final project. Anne was always a cheerful person to work with. **★★★★★ — Thad Gilliam, April 2019** > Back a few years ago, we had 1 child and our 1100 sf house wasn't going to be enough room for additional children. Anne helped us design our dream home - a house big enough to accommodate future kids and a home to create a lifetime of family memories. She REALLY listened on the front end, and incorporated all our desires into the finished design. From the window seats, to the pocket doors, to wide stairs, to the master layout...everything is exactly how we'd want it. We don't feel like there are wasted or unused rooms b/c she helped tease out what we were really looking for. We feel like our house is truly unique. The enormous value of a good architect is that there are no (or few) surprises during the construction process. Anne also helped us go through the variance process with the local government to get an exception to build a wrap around porch on the exterior. Her knowledge of zoning and how everything fits together is impressive. An investment in good architecture/design is well worth it. We would HIGHLY recommend Anne. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks so much, Thad! It was a real pleasure working with you guys and I'm so tickled that you are filling up those bedrooms!! **★★★★★ — Alan Cronic, April 2019** > We were very pleased with the planning, the process, and the final result of our Deck renovation. Anne's ability to translate a vision to a completed structure is incredible. Every thing we wanted and more. **★★★★★ — Kimberly Bonde, April 2019** > Anne worked with us every step of the way. She asked great questions to understand who we are and how we live in our home so as to develop a plan that was going to truly suit us. From design to drawings to coordination with our contractor to celebrating the final product we couldn't be happier. 5 stars is not enough! **★★★★★ — Peter Paulsen, April 2019** > We approached Anne for help in the remodeling of our master bath based on what we had heard from other people. We were not disappointed. She listened carefully to what we wanted. asked some helpful questions, and produced a design and construction document that allowed the project to proceed perfectly. We enjoyed her help, her personality, and her expertise. She has our highest recommendation. **★★★★★ — HU-850963205, April 2019** > We hired The firm to design and supervise a deck installation on our town home. It was a challenging space and location. Anne brought flair and insight to the task. We were able to swap ideas and achieve an outstanding result. Anne was always available and worked seamlessly with us. She had a great relationship with the contractors. Highly satisfied. **★★★★★ — Marise Parent, April 2019** > Anne was a joy to work with. I had lots of ideas and she was able to turn them into creative solutions and architectural drawings that perfectly captured what I wanted. She was very easy to collaborate with, punctual, and professional. My contractor did not complain once about the plans she provided, suggesting they had sufficient detail. I love my renovated great room and new screened-in porch with vaulted ceilings. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you for the review, Marise - you were an easy client and your space did work out great! **★★★★★ — Billy Campbell, April 2019** > Anne dis a great job on my project and was always very timely on delivery demands! Drawings were always very clean and detailed. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks for the review, Billy! Your outdoor kitchen project was a lot of fun to work on - hope you are enjoying it! **★★★★★ — kristie abney, April 2019** > We LOVED our experience with Anne Architecture. She is super creative and engaged and punctual and I cannot recommend her highly enough. **★★★★★ — ARDIN interior design, Oct. 2017** > Anne and I have worked together on multiple projects over the past 12yrs. She is always professional and an ace at providing creative ideas to meet the clients’ wishes. Every project exceeds expectations whenever she is involved!! I love working with her and look forward to more projects in the future. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks, Kelly! We do make a great team - let's do something together very soon! **★★★★★ — karen hagerman, Jan. 2017** > Anne is an amazing Architect. I have had the pleasure of working with her by providing her photography of her final projects. I would not hesitate referring anyone to Anne. She is a real talent and a genuinely warm person who takes great pleasure in delivering more than what her clients expect. Anne delights! **★★★★★ — Earth Sky Builders, Aug. 2016** > As a contractor we have worked with plenty of architects and Anne stands out as one who is thoughtful, careful, and whose designs set her apart. We highly recommend her, especially if you are thinking about working with us. **★★★★★ — Marilyn Berberich, Aug. 2016** > We hired Anne for two residential projects on our 1920s home--an extraordinary multi-level deck and a kitchen redesign. Anne takes great care when listening to our wants and needs, which delivers results closely aligned with our dreams. We rely on Anne's extensive knowledge of structural elements and spatial and interior design principles. As in any project, the ideas and plans change as the project evolves. Anne is very adaptable to fine tuning the plans and is very inventive in finding practical solutions that are also rich in design. We would hire Anne again and recommend her work without hesitation. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks, Marilyn! You guys have a special place in my heart as my first clients as H. Anne Blakely Sciarrone Architecture! **★★★★★ — gheidbreder, Aug. 2016** > Anne transformed our tired 1960's era kitchen and den into a beautiful, inviting, practical space that is perfect for our family, and perfect for entertaining friends. Her creative plan drastically changed the look and flow of the rooms, while leaving existing plumbing and HVAC intact. We are thrilled with the outcome! **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you Ginger! I know you all are going to enjoy that new space. I loved working with you guys and can't wait to see it with all the furniture moved in and art on the walls! **★★★★★ — Rob, May 2016** > I thoroughly enjoyed working with H. Anne Blakely Sciarrone. She was attentive to what I was looking for and was able to turn that vision into reality. She was diligent to work within the budget allotted but pushed me to imagine what the final product could be. She remained focused throughout the project working with the contractor and insuring that all details were addressed. She imagined what the renovation of my early 1900's bungalow could be and was able to make that happen. I continue to thoroughly enjoy the final product. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks, Rob! You were an amazing client - thanks for giving me the honor of working with you! **★★★★★ — Jason, March 2016** > We worked with Anne in 2012 to design our unfinished basement in a 1950's bungalow. We had a vision of what we wanted but were not sure how to execute our idea. So, we consulted with Anne and she was an immediate fit! She brings vision and creativity that you look for in an interior designer to the drafting table. Anne listens very well and is easy to work with. She also has the experience and skill to work with subcontractors and general contractors to ensure the integrity of her design and the expectation of the client is met without delay or compromise. I highly recommend Anne and trust that she will exceed your expectations on any project you entrust her with, **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks, Jason! It was YOUR vision! I love that your basement is such an amazing party space and it helps that you are such an amazing host! **★★★★★ — Southland Development Services, March 2016** > I have had the privilege of working with Anne on many projects. Her work is thoughtful and innovative with high regard given to her client's needs and wishes. She is very knowledgeable about new and proven materials and I love her team approach to the design. She strives to exceed her clients expectations and approach each project as a unique opportunity to create a beautiful environment. I highly recommend Anne. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks, Eric! I appreciate working with you and love having a contractor that I can recommend with confidence. **★★★★★ — drmbliss, March 2016** > Anne Sciarrone is an outstanding architect. My husband and I hired her to renovate our unfinished basement. We had a few specific ideas but mainly an overall "gist" of what we wanted. Anne immediately captured our vision and created a design that met all of our desires and beyond. With Anne's design and ongoing guidance, we renovated a full-length basement with very low ceilings, a dozen or so structural support poles, and electrical/water units right in the middle of potentially useable space into a spa-like dream that receives rave reviews from every person of every age who walks in. She designed authentic interior stone walls (built by a mason) to match our existing exterior walls, a unique wine cellar, and a gorgeous staircase behind a beautiful bar. She maximized all space so that we have a large entertainment area with multiple sitting spots, a bedroom, a full bathroom, and an incredible storage space. She created an excellent interior/exterior flow. Now people come into our home and don't want to leave. Anne was professional at every stage of development and implementation, offered excellent color suggestions for paint, stains and linens, and was available for changes or questions throughout the process. She worked well with the contractor who did the renovation even though they had no prior relationship. She did not miss a single detail, involved us in the entire process, and was an absolute delight. We highly recommend her. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks for the review, Melanie! You guys were great fun to work with - just fun people in general. Your project continues to be one that I am proud to have been a part of! **★★★★★ — Hammertime construction Inc, Jan. 2016** > My company (Hammertime Construction inc) were very fortunate to be selected by the homeowners and Anne (architect) to perform the work for the Decatur whole house renovation and addition. This was our first project for Anne. From a general contractors perspective, Anne was a joy to work with, Always available should a question arise, and answers provided to keep us moving forward. Having worked on many/many similar scope projects, This project is one of our company favorites. They floor plan and flow of the new house works well and the attention to detail is second to none, The house completely fits in with its neighbors, even though a 1000SF addition was added upstairs, The front porch and entry steps really give the house charm and character. We look forward to working with you in the future and highly recommend Anna for architectural services. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks, Ali! It was a pleasure working with you and your staff as well - great job! **★★★★★ — sallyawood, Jan. 2016** > Anne is an incredible architect who does a great job of listening and combining form and function. She gave us everything we needed and more in a finished product that was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. She took our "ugliest house on the block" and turned it into one of the best. Anne is there every step of the way to support you. We can't recommend her enough! She had incredible vision and great attention to detail. We have wonderful storage closets in every available corner but a beautiful open concept! **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thank you so much, Sally. You and Scott were awesome clients too! So glad we have this shared experience! **★★★★ — User, Jan. 2016** > S. Diane Johnson Photography photographed the finished project for Anne Sciarrone Architecture, LLC. Anne's work is beautiful and she is a very strong professional. I have worked with her on other projects and each time has been a delight. **Comment from Anne Architecture:** > Thanks for the review, Diane. I sure do love showing your photos!

It had been so meticulously restored and renovated before they purchased, but being party-throwers there was one thing they were driven to change - the kitchen!

My kitchen is north facing and I have a busy existing counter top. A: I don't have a record of what that color is as the client's interior designer chose the color. Maybe you could consult with your designer to select a color for you? **Q: What size tiles are used in this photo? Thanks!** *(in Photo Questions)* Love the look. A: @Kelly Berumen would know! **Q: Island Paint Color** *(in Photo Questions)* Beautiful kitchen! Could you share the paint color on the island? Thank You A: It is great, isn't it? You'll need to ask the interior designer - https://www.houzz.com/pro/kberumen/ardin-interior-design **Q: What are the dimensions for the screened in porch?** *(in Photo Questions)* I’m curious on the size of the transitional porch. It looks great. I have a narrow space and wanted to get an idea of what my options may be. Thank you! A: Hi there, the porch is about 8 1/2 feet wide x 15 feet long. It's quite small, but works perfectly for this client! **Q: vanity paint details** *(in Photo Questions)* What paint was used on vanity? A: I don't have that information - that was handled through the interior designer on this project. Isn't it lovely, though? **Q: Anne, is that a screen that goes across the garage door?** *(in Photo Questions)* Brookhaven Renovation-Addition A: It is, Sharon! It is a Phantom screen - rolls up into a housing that is built into the wall above the door and moves along the tracks on the side. It's motorized so it works with a switch on the wall. We are installing another one right now on a small open porch to create a screened porch for the buggiest times, but to give them more space to spill out into the yard when they don't need it. Looking forward to our call next week! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-18.*
