Natasha Jansz Design

As an interior designer for many years, I've worked with several architects, and I was choosy about who I would hire for my own project. Mark Nichols is hands-down the best one I've found to collaborate with, bringing creativity and solid know-how to the table. From the outset, my husband and I had some very specific ideas about the architecture of our ground-up construction project. Mark was great at listening and interpreting these ideas into something buildable - layering in lots of valuable ideas of his own. Mark is approachable and a strong communicator. He was consistently conscientious, and helped us so much in dealing with the city and various consultants to keep our project on track. When unexpected issues arose, as they always do during construction, we really appreciated his partnership in solving the problems to keep moving forward. Our completed project is stunning, and we couldn't have done it without Mark. I would not hesitate to recommend his architectural services to any of my clients, colleagues and friends.

I have completed several projects with architect Mark Nichols, including various ground-ups, T.Is, and special projects with challenges in scope and condition. Throughout all these years and projects, Mark was and is a great architect to work with for the following reasons: (1) his drawings are clear and detailed enough to make our job smoother, (2) he is one of the best communicators I have worked with in the industry with unmatched transparency, availability, clarity, and very straight forward (3) he takes responsibility of his projects and commits to its completion and success. Most importantly, Mark is a good and genuine person, and I consider him a friend above a client.

Mark helped design our dream back house! There were so many moving pieces but we never felt stressed out as mark was able to be in loop at all times and communicated really well with contractors, our interior designer and the engineer. We knew from his renderings that he was talented and that we were making a special place, but it far exceeded all of our expectations. Thank you for the incredible work Mark!

I worked with Mark at Baylis Architects as the Principal overseeing his efforts on commercial and mixed-use multi-family projects. Mark served a variety of project roles helping to bring designs from concept to reality. He's worked on small scale commercial projects -- office space tenant improvements -- to large scale 250+ unit mixed-use developments. He also worked on the high-end custom homes team while at Baylis. Mark is familiar with the full design process and has experience getting projects permitted and built in multiple jurisdictions. He is committed to finding the right design solution inherent in each project.

Thank you for the review Meredith. I feel fortunate to have worked on so many great projects while at Baylis as well as with great people.

Bill Bue

Our experience working with Mark is somewhat limited because he was the junior architect on the team that helped us build our house, but we did interact with him in that capacity on multiple occasions. We enjoyed working with him. He is bright and conscientious and always seemed prepared for the tasks that he had been asked to do. He helped us out with visualizing the design of our home and guided us through the permitting process.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the review and the kind words. I really enjoyed working on your beautiful home. Johan sent me pictures and I think it turned out exceptional.

Hien

I worked with Mark on my insurance building buildout, complete renovation (gut) job and can't tell you how impressed I am with Mark's design. The plans were instantly approved at the city without any questions or revisions needed which was fantastic! The office looks amazing and I get compliments from every client that comes into our office. He also went above and beyond to get me some publicity from a local newspaper journal as well. Highly recommended and will be working with Mark again for future projects.

I am so happy to have used Mark for a kitchen and bathroom remodel! I really love his style and design choices as well as his work ethic. Turnaround was fast and his suggested contractors were great as well. I recommended him to my neighbors - and they were very pleased. I loved working with Mark 5 stars
