“My wife and I hired Jeannette Architects to assist us with a major remodel (interior/exterior) of our 3,500 sq. ft. ranch style home in Newport Beach. The task: incorporate warm contemporary design into our 1970's "woody cabin." As a real estate developer and because it's our third major house remodel there were many design elements we knew we wanted but many more that we needed help with. As capable as Jeff (Jeannette) is with his design sense, we believe that it's his ability to listen to his clients, understand client goals, how we will live in the space and how that fits into our budget is what sets Jeff apart from other architects. The Jeannette team met aggressive time constraints, produced a thorough set of construction documents, were always quick to provide clarification and answers to our questions and were great resources for product and material options and information. True professionals that we would use again and confidently refer to others. Our project is nearing completion and I can't wait to share photos.”

“I have worked with Gary for almost 30 years on both small and large projects. We are very impressed with his design abilities, thorough construction documents and diligence in following up on details. We would highly recommend him.”

“Paul helped me with a remodeling project on my Dana Point rental home. We ran into some difficult issues in dealing with the planning and building department. Paul is a very experienced architect who knows the building codes very well. We got the permits and his architectural designs were great! I would definitely use Paul again.”

“JIM COANE is the single, most-trusted, most relied upon name in my every real estate holding. I have been fortunate to be able to call upon Jim since 1993 for every one of my real estate ventures, residential and commercial. The environmental enjoyment of space is vital to my employee's creativity and success, my company's growth and our personal happiness. My collaboration with him has achieved enormous and unexpected benefits. Jim's designs and insights have brought balance, logic and extraordinary comfort to my completely out-of-balance life. It is incalculable how many compliments I get from clients, potential employees and celebrities who visit our offices. His home design has also proven to be a timeless masterpiece, still garnering unsolicited compliments 25 years after the last wood plank was set. Jim Coane is a treasure and his genius and craftsmanship are gifts that impact almost every hour of my every day. I could not be more blessed.”

“We were in the market for several years for a house in Laguna Beach before we found the one we wanted. During that search, we heard many hair-raising stories about how difficult it can be to remodel in Laguna, so we decided to use a local architect and were referred to Anders Lasater. Turned out to be a great referral, because Anders and his staff not only helped us navigate the labyrinthian planning department process, they also provided us with a wealth of information about what works and what doesn't in Laguna. The remodel turned out to be much more complicated than expected because of numerous elevation changes on the property. They stayed with the project from start to finish, dropping in on short notice when we needed input. We asked for several large modifications along the way and those were handled with patience, care and creative suggestions. Anders himself went to speak with neighbors when they raised concerns and was a partner in the whole process.”

“Where do we begin? Stephanie Osorio went above and beyond during all aspects of our project. We wanted to build an ADU, it was our first project, and we were GREEN. Stephanie was with us from day one, and walked us through every step. She was attentive, beyond knowledgeable, listened to all of our questions and concerns, and offered suggestions but was never pushy. After we obtained permitting from the city, Stephanie was MVP during the building stage. She was the necessary bridge/mediator/therapist during some challenging times between us and the contractor (even though it wasn’t part of her job description), and we can honestly say we’re not sure how the project would have ended up without her expertise and excellent people skills to guide the project through to completion. As a result, the finished product is beautiful, and we would recommend her 100 times over. We really can’t stress enough how valuable she is with her knowledge, work ethic and communication skills, not to mention the fact that she is genuinely a kindhearted and lovely person. She is committed and cares about her work, and it shows. We’d be happy to speak to anybody wanting more information regarding her company, and we’d vouch for her time and time again.”

“Over the past 30 years, we have had Brion Jeannette Architecture design 4 remodels for us and they have done 3 remodels for our adult children. We are consistently pleased with the attention we receive on our projects. The creativity of their designs and their ability to solve issues that inevitably arise during a construction, is what has made our multiple experiences exceptional. Their designs exceed our expectations, giving us more living spaces and more storage spaces than we thought possible.”

“I love Meredith and Mariam at MAAM. My husband and I hired them to design our home, he then hired them again for his office and we hired them a third time for a pool design. No reason to mess with a good thing! Impeccable tastes. Incredibly smart. Super trustworthy. They are the best!”

“We have hired Caroline in the past and she did an AMAZING JOB for us! A Beautiful and Creative mind, and a pleasure to work with. We definitely recommend her to anyone looking for Great Work!”

“I am working with Dan Ziese Architecture on a hillside project in Los Angeles. We just completed a renovation project near Glendale. He is a pleasure to work with...... and as you can see, I have hired him again for another project! Great guy and great work-fast and efficient.”
