### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Jenna Houseman, Aug. 2026**

> Working with Brian Patterson Designs was an absolute pleasure, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience or the results. From our very first conversations, Brian and his team took the time to truly understand our vision, how we live in our home, and what we wanted the finished spaces to accomplish.
>
> What stood out most was their combination of creativity, professionalism, and incredible attention to detail. Brian has a gift for seeing possibilities that you simply don’t see yourself. He was able to translate our ideas into a thoughtful, cohesive design while also bringing practical solutions that made our home more functional—not just beautiful.
>
> I also really appreciated the holistic approach. Brian Patterson Designs offers architectural design, interior design and décor, and project management, and that level of coordination made the entire process feel much more organized and manageable. They worked thoughtfully through selections, finishes, fixtures, and all the details that can easily become overwhelming during a renovation.
>
> Brian and his team were responsive, collaborative, and genuinely invested in getting everything right. They communicated clearly, listened to our questions and concerns, and maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the project. You can tell that relationships, integrity, and quality workmanship are important to them—not simply completing a project, but creating a home that truly reflects the people who live there.
>
> The finished result exceeded our expectations. Our home feels more beautiful, more functional, and more us. We especially appreciated that the design never felt cookie-cutter—it felt intentional, timeless, and tailored specifically to our home and lifestyle.
>
> I would wholeheartedly recommend Brian Patterson Designs to anyone considering a renovation, addition, new build, or comprehensive interior design project in the Atlanta area. Brian brings an exceptional eye for design together with the organization and project-management expertise needed to actually bring that vision to life.

**★★★★★ — Claudia, Aug. 2026**

> Brian and his team did an outstanding job helping me with selecting all that was needed for an upstairs expansion. They came prepared, listened to my concerns and stayed within my budget.  I would highly recommend.

**★★★★★ — Mary Nettles, April 2026**

> I have known Brian Patterson for about 30 years. My home was the first home he had designed and built from dirt up.
> Since then, he has designed things for me over the years. Including a fabulous steam shower bathroom he designed for me and is now being built by my contractor. He has great ideas and wonderful spatial awareness of how things need to flow and make sense.
> I wouldn't pick and paint color without his advice!

**★★★★★ — bamakye, Aug. 2025**

> Had an amazing experience with BPD. We did a whole house renovation, we had initial plans from our architect which we were super excited about, Brian came in and made adjustments that took the layout and vision over the edge. He helped us select all the finishes listened to our preferences and steered us in the right direction when needed. I love how our home looks and even more how much better it functions for our family we are so grateful!

**★★★★★ — HU-67099929, Jan. 2025**

> Brian and his team designed and executed a total renovation of my 75 year old house that had not undergone a major renovation in 30 years.  He reconfigured the layout in a way that I never imagined to enlarge primary bathroom and kitchen and make the house more functional.  In guiding me through the selection of finishes and fabrics, he was sensative to my esthetic and helped me incorporate a number of family pieces into the design.  I feel like I have a completely new home that honors the age and design of the house and incorporates my family history.  Brian and his team always made themselves available to answer my questions and concerns and maintained a great working relationship with the contractor who executed his designs.  I have been overjoyed with the results and consistently receive compliments from my friends over the renovation and design.  I cannot speak highly enough of Brian and his team.

**★★★★★ — Janet Goodloe, Dec. 2024**

> The plans for our home took into consideration the craftsman style of our home and my decorating style.  We are head over heels about the way our house feels and flows.  Highly recomMend Brian and his team.

**★★★★★ — Julie Carpenter, Dec. 2024**

> I've worked with Brian for almost twenty years on various projects and am always pleased with the process and the outcome.  Brian has a knack of knowing how to fully understand what it is I am looking for when I've been unable to clearly verbalize that myself.  He has an amazing eye for design and found fabulous solutions for tricky situations.  I highly recommend Brian and his team!!

**★★★★★ — Bill Ferguson-Georgia American Developers, Dec. 2023**

> As a General Contractor building homes for decades, I know the many residential projects we've done with Brian and his team run smoothly, are well coordinated, time-sensitive, and are always designed and built right.  He knows how to put things together well and comfortably handles any hiccups along the way.  This creates beautiful homes with exceptional outcomes.
>
> For my team, he delivers excellent drawings and official documentation, follows correct procedures, makes relevant decisions, and communicates effectively with everyone involved: vendors, fabricators, other contractors, and neighborhood/city/county officials.  He effectively manages complex situations and personalized designs with tremendous value.
>
> Most of all, the homeowners are thrilled with the results! Brian Patterson Designs, Inc. gets a 10+ from me!

**★★★★★ — HU-203916, Dec. 2022**

> I continue to be impressed with Brian Patterson and his team. We contracted Brian to design an addition for our home, adding a master bedroom, basement, and sunroom. Brian was very accommodating to our desire to approach the project in phases rather than all at once and incorporated that into his designs. What most impressed me about Brian was his attention to detail. In projects I've worked on in the past, a lot of things can get lost in conversation, but Brian writes everything down. The project plan he creates for the general contractor who will ultimately be doing the work is incredibly easy for us to parse and gives us confidence the project will be done correctly. I couldn't recommend Brian enough.

**★★★★★ — Tom Burrell, Dec. 2022**

> Brian and his team are incredibly knowledgeable and made the process of planning the major renovation of our home smooth. They listened to our budget and concerns and helped guide us towards options and ideas that met our goals. They demonstrated an immense amount of patience with us as we made decisions...and then changed them or added to the plans as the process went along!

**★★★★★ — Michelle Kotheimer, Dec. 2022**

> Brian does beautiful work - and most importantly, is incredibly easy and supportive to work with! He is always on time, very hands on with project management, responsive, and has the highest standards of quality. He helps guide you through the contractor selection process, design decisions, and quality reviews with what seems to be effortless precision. I have neighbors with nightmare stories about their kitchen reno - not us, because of Brian’s team’s commitment and utmost professionalism. He is a GEM!

**★★★★★ — Julie Carpenter, Dec. 2022**

> Brian and his team are awesome to work with. They listen to their clients in coming up with a great a concept. They then turn that concept into a plan that contractors use to complete the project. I really enjoyed working with Brian and will use him again and recommend him to friends.
