“We are immensely thankful that Dan Pero, of "On the Line Design" was recommended to us for our home design. A++! We had experienced working with an architect prior to meeting Dan, but after two years, the designed home was larger than we wanted, the building estimate was well over our budget, and the architect fees had maxed us out. As difficult as it was, we walked away completely - after two years. When we met Dan Pero, our frustrations over a difficult, lengthy, and costly process were over! He was super easy to work with, flexible, available, pleasant, open to suggestions, quick with ideas and changes, efficient and very patient. Communicating the house of ones dreams is not an easy process. There are many nuances, features and personalized elements that individualize a home, customize it, and make it special. Dan delivered on every aspect - the process was simple and enjoyable from start to finish. The end result is that we have a home design that works for our lot, meets our wants, needs and dreams - and the fees were very reasonable. We cannot thank you enough Dan, for helping our 'dream home plans' become a reality for us. I would be happy to recommend you over and over again! Jane and Paul”

“Laura is a pleasure to work with and her knowledge, skill, and cool headedness guided us through a major remodel. We love our home, and credit Laura with creating our dream house! Our family relocated from Southern California to Upstate New York in the summer of 2015. Based on the available housing stock, we made the decision to purchase a 1960s ranch house situated on a beautiful piece of property with the intention of a major remodel. Our thinking was that buying a house with a simple floor plan would allow us a lot of flexibility to add on. In seeking out an architect to design our remodel, we were hoping to find someone who had experience with environmentally friendly building materials, a modern aesthetic, and who was local. Laura checked all these boxes! In our initial meeting with Laura we spent time talking broadly about what we wanted for our "dream house" and our budget. Laura then asked us to start saving pictures on Houzz so she could get a good idea of our design aesthetic. The next phase involved meeting with Laura at the house and walking through the space together and sharing ideas. She took lots of measurements and then, based our on discussion, she created a set of drawings. The drawing phase was iterative, meaning that we went back and forth in person and over email as we made comments and suggestions for changes, which she then incorporated into the design. For several spaces, she gave us two different design options, one which we had requested, and the other a design of her making. This allowed us to compare and contrast options. Once the design was finalized, Laura worked directly with the contractor and the town permitting office to facilitate construction. This was a huge project, one which involved a two-story addition and the remodeling of the entire interior space of the home (3 bathrooms, a new kitchen, moving numerous walls, and all new windows). When there were issues, she was readily available to be on site and worked efficiently and decisively to solve problems. In fact, I often told Laura that her presence on the job lowered my blood pressure -- she doesn't get ruffled by problems or personalities and is a great negotiator, especially between spouses! After construction was finished, I hired Laura to provide interior design consulting. She was a huge help when it came to choosing flooring material, paint colors, creating custom mosaic tile patterns and coordinating multiple materials in the kitchen and bathrooms. She was always available to look at materials in person or pictures over email and was a guiding hand when I felt overwhelmed by decisions. Since the house has been completed we have been pinching ourselves over how lucky we are to live in this beautiful home. We love having people over, as the space is great for entertaining, and the house always receives lots of compliments. Thank you, Laura, for everything!”
