Jeffrey Dungan Architects

Finally an architect and firm that actually listens to their client and whose desire it is to create their client's dream. Jeff and his incredible team were engaged, responsive, and, attentive to the remarkable design details that make this house our home.

My project included the difficulties of an old house built in a architectural era much different than today. The JDA team was able to add character and style to a very asymmetrical layout, all while helping me maximize value. We are thrilled!

My husband and I bought an out-of-date 1960s home because of the extraordinary view from the top of the mountain. Jeff Dungan took the footprint of the old house, and redesigned exceptional spaces. His plans called for demolition of part of the house and in its place is a magnificent living room with large windows to maximize the view. We wanted this house to look like an English estate that had been in place for years. He accomplished this magnificently while providing all the modern amenities one could desire. The main entrance to the house is through a walled garden. Jeff and his team are the best. Their knowledge of design amazed me. To be able to design and capture the vision of the owners is wonderful and so rewarding. There were challenges of course in working with a preexisting home, but they handled it perfectly. Their ideas were well thought and executed. I was a pleasure from the beginning to the end of building our home. Everyday I feel like I step into a bit of English history when I walk through my garden into my home. Its a dream come true.

As a custom home builder, Jeff is the type of Architect and person you genuinely enjoy working with. His seemingly innate talent is obvious from the moment you speak to him and reinforced by the ease with which he creates something beautiful inside of what can be complex parameters. Ironstar Building Company would confidently recommend Jeff to anyone and would love to see as much of his work as possible in the Washington DC metro area (as well as any other region for that matter).

I worked with Jeff several years back on a new home and with several other projects from his firm. Jeff is an extremely talented architect that creates exceptional spaces and beautiful homes. All of his projects are unique and his architectural style is both classic and current. He has quite the creative mind.

It's a true honor to work with Jeffrey Dungan. We're flattered when Jeffrey Dungan selects our fixtures to adorn his designs. His keen understanding of design, proportion, space, texture and materials selection makes each structure a true work of art. We look forward to many projects to come. Thanks! The Bevolo Team

Dungan Nequette Architects is a firm that is both highly talented and yet so personal you go to dinner as friends. Their talent is unparalleled and will never disappoint. Our company looks forward each time to working with such talent. Jeff is an extraordinary talent but equally likable and kind.

My wife and I hired Jeff Dungan to design a lake house for us on Lake Martin, in central Alabama. Design work began mid-2011, followed by construction that began mid-2013 with completion late 2014. We had never built a house before, let alone worked with an architect, so we didn’t really know what to expect. We chose Jeff based on some structures he had designed in the area, which we liked and he seemed like an easy person to work with. We were looking for a casual rustic feel that was functional, elegant, with great entertaining spaces. During the two year design process, we went through the typical struggles of trying to reconcile a long list of “wants” and “needs” with our budget. The budget ended up stretching quite a bit but Jeff and his staff did a great job of walking us through the endless number of options and decisions that we were faced with. We found Jeff to be incredibly creative, artistic in his drawing ability and an effective communicator. We also appreciated his focus on creating amazing exterior living spaces that blended with the surroundings and interior. Jeff has a great staff, who worked well with the construction contractor and interior decorator to create a spectacular finished product that we look forward to creating special memories in.

Jeffrey Dungan's work is beautiful to behold! His houses are well crafted, impeccably detailed, and soulfully expressed by his masterful hand. Jeff's hand drawings and preliminary sketches alone are works of art, and his finished buildings are compelling to experience. Very memorable and lasting architecture which is grounded to the earth and surrounding landscape!

I am a designer, McMillan Interiors Inc, in Birmingham, Al. Jeff Dungan is a dream to work with. His genius is continually overflowing and he is such an inspiration to dig deeper./walk the line. His respect towards every one on the job displays his true character as to whom he really is behind those spectacle glasses. He becomes part of his client's family, almost instantly, and they hang onto every word he says, as they should. Jeff is unbelievably talented, a good man, and ever evolving with his masterpieces and architectural creations. He truly breathes life into each one, quite mesmerizing to watch.

Jeff Dungan is extremely talented, innovative and passionate about architecture and it shows in all his projects! He has a love for people that transcends into his work as he creates classic, distinctive, unconventional homes for his clients. I found him to be an enthusiastic listener and team player. He combines the unexpected with the classic, to create houses that tell a story and welcomes the visitor in.

Jeff Dungan- hmmmm what can I say? When God made him he decided one was going to be enough and then SMASHED the mould. The interesting thing about Jeff is that his creative process is much like a complicated Swiss watch. Take the back off and watch all the parts spin simultaneously - I'm not sure I've ever witnessed anything like it. So when I think about what sets him apart from the fray one phrase comes to mind - "true creative genius". He constantly and consistently thinks outside the box. He really lives to create and imagine a new idea with the enthusiasm and joy of a five year old boy. He jumps, he leaps, he claps- he squeals with glee whenever he imagines another new concept! Tickled to death with each and every detail involved with the project and dogged about the details that will set this one apart from the others that came before. He remains -after all these years of doing what he does- passionate about the process of creation- constantly AMAZED- that someone likes him or admires his work! Approachable, authentic and humble,and moreover really real- a refreshing quality in a world that is often jaded and pretentious! Therein is the joyfulness and genius that is Jeffrey Dungan!
