Building Designers in Rossville

“We hired Legacy to design and complete a renovation that involved adding a play area above our previously two-story Hearth Room. The work was completed ahead of schedule and as described in contract. Crew was courteous. Excellent communication between contractor and myself. The work met my high expectations and I would highly recommend Legacy for other design and renovation work.”

“We realized early in the process of building our ultimate dream home, the architect selection would be key to the success of our vision. We needed a special architect to design a home in Nashville in a new development with many restrictions.Once we met with Carson Looney we knew we had found the match for our working relationship. He is professional, visionary, creative, experienced, positive, and meetings were a pleasure. From the first meeting where we expressed our needs to the completion of the home, he took our wishes and turned them into architectural plans. He was well spoken and a gentleman in design review meetings with developers. After a year of living in the home we continue to be pleased with every detail he incorporated into the design. Early in the construction process as we interviewed builders we found they were amazed at the quality and details in the construction drawings and specifications. They said they had never seen such detailed drawings for residential construction. Carson Looney of LRK truly made the designing of our home a wonderful experience and we continue to recommend him highly! Beginning of project: February 2014… Completion: January 2016”

“very friendly and great service. Had some woodwork that needed to be done quickly and he got it done before i even expected him to.”

“We find the staff at Ralph Jones Home Plans very professional in every way. Jan has on many occasions went above and beyond the services she provided my firm. We would highly recommend Jan and the team at Ralph Jones.”

“Mark McClure provided plans for a remodel which included a laundry room/mudroom and two bathrooms as well as a screen porch addition for our home. He was extremely easy to work with and we LOVE the design. The porch is exactly what we had ever dreamed of including a sitting area with fireplace, dining area, and a grilling area. Everyone who sees it loves it! The overall design is very unique and fits perfectly with our existing 1930s Old English style home. We highly recommend McClure Architecture!”

“Beyond wonderful. We had multiple design sit downs which helped create our perfect renovation sketch. He kept the style of the neighborhood, envisioned things we didn't know we wanted, included all the things on our want list...and he was wonderful to work with throughout the process.”

“Working with Brad Shapiro was the best money I spent in the whole process. We used Brad from start to finish, not just to draw the plans and hand to the builder. He helped us create the vision for our custom home, take the vision to a concept stage, get the concept on paper, modify it on the fly to accommodate our changing thoughts or to add exciting new direction and details we hadn't considered. From there he worked seamlessly with us and our builder on every phase to complete the construction in a way that held true to the original vision and resulted in a home second to none. If you want a firm that is easy to work with and has you and your family's best interest in mind, not their own, and you want a close, personal, working relationship with your architect, Shapiro & Company is the preeminent choice.”

“Josh has done several renovation projects in our district. His designs are forward thinking and pleasing to the eye. He is always concerned about pleasing the customer and holds contractors accountable for every detail of his designs. I would highly recommend his skills for any project.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with John Beard and Dale Riser on a number of preservation-related and community development projects over the years and have found them to be committed, involved and professional in every respect. When it came time to take the remains of a 1922 bungalow and craft a new cabin out of the elements, we asked John Beard to create and oversee the design work. Through every stage of the process, we have been pleased with the talent and timeliness shown by John and the entire staff of Beard + Riser. Dale Riser transformed an unused corner of our church property into a tranquil, hallowed columbarium/prayer garden, and it was inspiring to watch him work with our priest and structures committee on that special project. I would not hesitate to use this firm again in the future.”

“The smartest thing we have done for our home renovation was to hire Howorth and Associates. They have patiently listened to each one of our hundreds of ideas and helped us figure out which ones can actually work in our home and with our budget. Timing was very important to us -- we needed to be back into our home in just a few months. The firm respects that and came up with a realistic plan to make that happen. Design-wise, I love this firm because they understood our commitment to our older home and helped us make reasonable, but beautiful changes so that we can keep living there. In short, they've made this renovation fun, easy, and inspirational for us.”
