John Emery and Jerry Preston did an outstanding job in allowing me to approve each stage of the project before final payment, focusing on my job exclusively during the month they created the panes, and delivering four outstanding products on time. All my neighbors and friends are asking about them. I cannot recommend these two artists highly enough. And I learned a lot about the history of their craft to boot. **Comment from PRESTON STUDIOS:** > Many thanks - it is a wonderful feeling to know we successfully translated your travel experiences (and ours as well) in China into a meaningful "Feng Shui" statement which hopefully will translate into a long life filled with happiness and good fortune! **★★★★★ — katiecuckoo, April 2016** > Preston Studios have done many wonderful projects for my company. We have designed together to make some unique glass pieces. I would recommend them to anyone looking for true Artisans, if they cant create your vision---no one can. > From a door set for TNAH 2011 , to a scene of all Europe in library windows, Modern glass panels in doors in South Florida. They gave me the ability to create in glass those unique features that can you apart. I certainly would rate them very highly for there work and timeliness. **Comment from PRESTON STUDIOS:** > Many thanks Kate! It is always a pleasure to work with interior designers with such excellent taste and style and with the ability to "translate" for us what a client really is looking for. It never ceases to amaze me how I can listen to a client for over half an hour and not "get it," while just a few sentences from you makes it perfectly clear! **★★★★★ — laknerick, Jan. 2016** > Great artists, ultimate professionals! > Will make any area of your home so > Much more beautiful. Will stand by their beautiful work always. **Comment from PRESTON STUDIOS:** > Many thanks.... and we have been honored with the latest September 15th 2023 article in SPACE COAST LIVING MAGAZINE: https://spacecoastliving.com/category/arts-community/ **★★★★★ — cindy\_kaier56, Nov. 2015** > John was able to take my dream for an Asian designed front door and create a beautiful entrance to our new home.

A: Have absolutely no idea....this home is in Charolais, Viera (Melbourne, Florida). Builder is Christopher Burton Homes.
