I highly recommend Douglas no matter your reason for building, you can only imagine how spectacular a simple "wine-cellar" can be! > > Please feel free to contact me regarding the quality of Mr. Clark's work. > > Todd Savage > President > Survival Retreat Consulting > 406-241-1795 > survivalretreatconsulting@gmail.com **★★★★★ — Edw J Shannon, Architect/Spirit Lake Studio, June 2014** > I worked with Doug on joint venture projects when his office was located in the Chicago area. Doug is an architect with the highest professional standards. His construction documents are thorough and concise. Doug is also very creative. He is able to get a great bang for projects that have limited budgets. I know first hand from his 2nd story addition in Palatine, which was in my neighborhood. Doug is a design professional. He is always striving to create the optimal solution to his client's needs and desires. Doug is passionate about architecture. We taught studio classes at Judson University together. He inspired and mentored many young architects! > > It is with great privilege that I recommend Douglas Clark as architect! **★★★★★ — TARA BAKER, June 2014** > I had the pleasure of getting to know Doug in a previous position. I can confidently recommend Doug as a knowledgeable and talented architect that delivers on his projects. In addition, he has a wonderfully bright personality that brings a lot of fun and energy to the team! **★★★★★ — gharriger, June 2014** > Douglas designed a beautiful 1070 sq. ft. addition that I built on my existing home. The service provided exceeded my expectations. Douglas made multiple site visits to ensure a quality porduct as the outcome of his services and his rates are very reasonable. I would recommend Douglas Clark to anyone in need of new construction plans! **★★★★ — brianwq, June 2014** > Finding an Architect with a personality you can mesh well with on a project can be tough. Luckily Doug's got it. After just briefly meeting him, I felt more comfortable with him than many of the professionals I've worked with in my past 7 years in the construction industry. Doug has lots to say but definitely puts focus on client interests. **★★★★★ — cem262, June 2014** > I have known Doug more than 30 years. In that time I can attest to his honesty, and performance at the highest levels of quality, attention to detail, creativity, consistency and customer satisfaction. He brings a wealth of knowledge from his many years working at all levels of the industry. He is an intelligent, affable, efficient, straight-talking architect sensitive to customers' visions and budgets. I wholeheartedly recommend Doug for all your architectural needs! He is a true professional, fully invested in his clients and their projects. ## Selected projects - [Tranquility Space](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tranquility-space-pj-vj~7323122) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Before and After Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/before-and-after-remodel-pj-vj~7323121) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Modern Japanese Style Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-japanese-style-bathroom-pj-vj~7323120) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Modern Efficient Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-efficient-kitchen-pj-vj~7323119) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Exterior Remodel - Modern style](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/exterior-remodel-modern-style-pj-vj~7323118) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Children's Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/children-s-room-pj-vj~7323114) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [ADU](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/adu-pj-vj~341879) - Location: Chicago, IL - Photos: 10 - [Multi-unit project/ADU](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/multi-unit-project-adu-pj-vj~341786) - Location: Chicago, IL - Photos: 4 - [kitchen dining great room addition, Arlington Heights, Illinois](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-dining-great-room-addition-arlington-heights-illinois-pj-vj~341908) - Location: Chicago, IL - Photos: 3 - [second story addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/second-story-addition-pj-vj~341804) - Location: Chicago, IL - Photos: 3 - [Garage and landscaping addition to Oak Brook Terrace home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/garage-and-landscaping-addition-to-oak-brook-terrace-home-pj-vj~341815) - Location: Chicago, IL - Photos: 9 - [Home Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/home-remodel-pj-vj~1629204) - Location: Eugene, OR - Photos: 53 - [Water Tower](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/water-tower-pj-vj~1309952) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Fireplace Design](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fireplace-design-pj-vj~1309576) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [San Mateo Pilates Studio/Residential](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/san-mateo-pilates-studio-residential-pj-vj~5492603) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Redwood City home addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/redwood-city-home-addition-pj-vj~5492595) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 35 [See all 16 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/secure-life-homes-pfvwus-pf~97250705) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
