**★★★★★ — Dhari Rohrer, June 2020**

> We worked with Stephen on a full remodel of our entire home. It has been several years since the job has been complete and there isn't a day that goes by that we are not completely in awe of the job that Stephen did designing our home. It suits us perfectly.  He took two very inexperienced people and listened to us and guided us in such a kind, intelligent and caring way and the end results are nothing short of perfection.  His attention to detail, the importance he places on doing the job right and his knowledge on many subjects really helped to lead us to creating our dream home.  I can not recommend him enough. The remodel included kitchen, master, a complete restructuring of our basement entry to a three story foyer that is stunning upon entry into the home, a music room, an office, laundry room, great room, fireplaces exterior and interior, and the exterior redesign.  He was with us every step of the way with all of the decisions and the material types.

**★★★★★ — Jerry Federico, Oct. 2016**

> Choosing someone to design a 38 acre vineyard and winery was no easy task. However, we are extremely happy that we chose Stephen. He listened to our vision, did an incredible amount of background research, and was able to provide us with a design that easily exceeded our expectations.
>
> This included the layout of 38 acres, with a winery, bed-and-breakfast,  tasting room, and event center, and a outdoor concert area, as well as anticipating picnic areas within the vineyard.
>
> This project will take years to complete, but we needed to start with a master plan that would allow us to add each element in the proper order while our business grows, as well as literally our grapes grow.
>
> Over the years I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of incredibly qualified professionals, I can truly say that Stephen stands out among all of those individuals.
> If you have a project, and you looking for a professional that can deliver your vision while adding a level of creativity and understanding of your particular project Stephen is your person

**★★★★★ — Expert Window & Door, Oct. 2016**

> Stephen creates wonderful designs with a high-degree of attention to detail.  His homes are distinctive and unique.  We have enjoyed working with him on several projects where he challenged us to meet his high expectations.

**★★★★★ — JIM ALBRITTON, Oct. 2016**

> I HAVE WORKED WITH STEPHEN. HE IS A VISIONARY ,  ALWAYS A PLEASURE TO WORK UNDER HIS SUPERVISION, AND A CHALLENGE TO ACCOMPLISH HIS VISION ,ALWAYS TURNS OUT AMAZING!!!!

**★★★★★ — Danny Thai, Oct. 2016**

> Stephen is a remarkable architect.  He is profoundly creative in designing architectural layouts that exceed requirements and expectations.  We've been working with Stephen on rebuilding our family home and it has been a tremendous pleasure working with him.  We anticipate that Stephen will be our go to architect for any architectural needs in the future.
>
> Stephen possesses a rare level of communication ability, capable of extracting our crude ideas and abstract notions, then transferring them onto paper with specificity, enabling us to further recognize what is possible and what we truly needed.  Even after satisfying us with delivered layouts, he continues to go above and beyond to seek out ways that will enhance the design and revise it to better meet our needs and budget.  Such commitment to superior services is what sets Stephen apart from his peers and competitors.
>
> I highly suggest anyone with architectural needs, may it be residential or commercial, completely new construction, renovation, remodeling, or expansion, reach out to Stephen for consultation.  I believe that his approach, commitment, and creativity will blow your mind!

**★★★★★ — Business\_Name\_Placeholder, May 2016**

> We have been fortunate to provide windows and doors for several of StudioOne's projects.  Stephen always creates one of a kind looks in his projects.  He has a great eye for detail in the built environment.  I would recommend anyone considering building a modern project consider StudioOne.

**★★★★★ — A+D Studio, Sept. 2015**

> AD Studio has an extremely creative team of designers. They assisted with several new construction houses space planning, design and selections of all materials and fixtures.

**★★★★★ — danthomasson78, June 2015**

> Stephen is terrific!
>
> He provided consultation for me on a piece of land I was considering for purchase and building a new home. He quickly understood where I was in my process, gathered all the information needed, and gave me an insightful and valuable assessment. Stephen was tenacious and able to uncover subtle but important challenges with the land that otherwise I would not have considered. He could have glossed over the issue he found, or not chased down the details about the septic system. But his diligence helped me make the best decision - in this case to not buy the land.
>
> On top of that, he was a pleasure to work with, clearly treating me like a customer. He was intently  focused on helping me. The guy radiates intelligence, competence and integrity,
>
> I would absolutely recommend Stephen.

**★★★★★ — courtneydufries, Jan. 2015**

> I purchased a large Brookhaven, GA lot next to my home and spent several years contemplating its highest and best use. Until I began working with Stephen Flanagan at Studio One Architecture, I failed to grasp its full potential. To be fair, most architects I interviewed had very good ideas, but they lacked the skills, the vision, or the demeanor necessary to ensure a successful and enjoyable project.
>
> It was clear that a good architect could develop a nice set of house plans. But a great architect would listen carefully (and take notes); spend time exploring the property; carefully evaluate the market and your personal goals; evaluate the project costs and budget; establish sound relationships with your team (builder, realtor, etc.); establish realistic expectations; and of course create an awesome design.
>
> A great architect has the skills and the experience to navigate government zoning and building code issues, of which there are many more than you might imagine. A great architect has an exceptional relationship with high quality engineering firms (structural, mechanical, electrical, etc) and can ensure fast turnaround on detailed plans for permitting and construction documents. A great architect can do more than draw boxes on a page; he or she will have exceptional skills covering land use planning, landscape architecture and interior design, building material costs and suppliers, and market trends.
>
> Stephen Flanagan at Studio One Architecture is a great architect.
>
> Not only has his firm created an exceptional home design that outshines the conventional cookie-cutter homes on the market today, but he has been intimately involved in every detail of the project – from rezoning the property to interior design. I’ve been so impressed, I intend to use Studio One for my next two projects, too. I’m lucky to have this relationship and proud of their work.

**★★★★★ — Allen Lipis, Dec. 2014**

> 1\. Stephen is very respectful and cares about his clients
> 2\. Completely designed our new home. Very creative, anxious to please the client and always full of alternative solutions.
> 3\. Added many ideas we would never have thought of: location of garage, reduction of slope of driveway, stone home, creative HVAC, windows at roof line, design of great room, and construction of pergola. Full of ideas on almost any subject.
> 4\. If you want an easy to work with architect, creative, dedicated and willing to work closely on every detail, Stephen Flanagan is your man.

**★★★★★ — patriciaschene, Nov. 2013**

> Our contemporary home in the foothills west of Denver was custom-built for us.  The kitchen was a bit small and there was a divider between kitchen and family room, further compacting the space.. Studio One designed the space differently by removing the divider; putting an island in center of kitchen for cooking and food preparation; and adding a curved ceiling of interesting wood design  The length of the the island enhanced the sense of space, connecting the family room and kitchen for the first time.
> The cabinetry chosen by Studio One is very warm, uncluttered, and of a warm wood tone.  The hardware enhanced the contemporary design of the cabinets. Studio One recommended granite countertops which blended beautifully with the wood tones and the design.
> We were delighted with the end product.  It is amazing that this level of design change could transform the space, making it more functional and more beautiful --all without tearing down any of the walls.

**★★★★★ — mhnatyk, Aug. 2013**

> We contracted our residential renovation project with Studio One Architecture, Inc. for consultation and design services for our backyard decks (2).  We were interested in converting the downstairs deck into a screen porch and making the upstairs deck more spacious and open.  We wanted the finished design to look like it had always been part of the house.  Stephen Flanagan, Studio One Architect, did that and more.  He had three different designs, all more aesthetically pleasing and distinctive than our original ideas.   The designs were great and we've enjoyed our finished space/outdoor living so much more!  First, we really clicked.  We had a great relationship with Stephen; he really listened to us and made us a part of the process.  He is extremely professional; design services were delivered per the terms of our contract (timely and within budget).  His design fees were quite reasonable.  We would highly recommend Studio One Architecture, Inc. design services to prospective clients.  We were so happy that we asked for his advice and then used his design services.

  - Description: The existing home is located on a narrow corner lot along a major road in an affluent suburban neighborhood. The primary purpose for the addition was to solve a dangerous existing pedestrian and vehicular egress issue as well as to control entry access to the property. The existing home and tight setbacks restricted buildable area to just 0.07 acres. Despite the minimal land available, the site was reconfigured to add a new garage, in-law suite, swimming pool, lanai, and outdoor dining area alon…

  - Description: The project involved finishing off an existing basement for a growing family to include a guest bedroom, study, bath, children's playroom, utility closet, and walk-in storage room. Despite the small footprint, due to the existing topography, the unfinished basement was framed out with 10' ceilings. Taking advantage of the height, a barrel-vault was created over the bedroom and study with uplit scalloped cove lighting behind traditional crown molding. Double pocket doors allow for ample circulati…

## Community Q&A

**Q: Could you please tell me what the patio material is?  Looks lovely!** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: The flooring is select pennsylvania bluestone pavers.

**Q: Ivory/Cream wall panels** *(in Photo Questions)*

Beautiful home. Amazing choice of materials. What did you use for the ivory/cream wall panels? Hardie Panel? And if so, how did you install them? Rain screen? Screw hidden or painted over? Appreciate a response.

A: It is a hardipanel system.  I wanted concealed fasteners but due to cost and logistics we had to settle for  standard face screws per the manufacturer's pattern given the reveal and rainscreen furring strips.  Fortunately, they are surprisingly difficult to see and even up close they don't detract from the panel, mostly due to the quality of the installer and the painter.  Good luck with your project!

**Q: What is the flooring on the outside covered porch in this picture?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: It is standard pressure treated that's been allowed to weather and then stained and sealed.

**Q: Are the white facades smooth stucco?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I was wondering if the light colored areas of the exterior of the home were done with a stucco or plaster or something similar? Any information you can provide about the material would be greatly appreciated :)

A: Yes, it is a stucco system.  We chose to do a 3-coat system with lath and a smooth trowel finish using a drainage plane behind the lath to allow the wall to breathe better and not retain moisture given the humid southern climate.  Good luck with your project!

**Q: Furniture** *(in Photo Questions)*

What brand is the furniture?

A: We purchased the furniture on ebay (new) from a company whose name escapes me.

**Q: Could you please tell me the color and make of backsplash tile?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: The backsplash was selected by the owner, so I do not have spec info on it.  However, I can tell you the infill accent tile is a Walker Zanger and the surrounding subway tile was a simple glazed.
