My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed working with Xiomara and the team at Paredes-Grube Architecture on our home addition. From our initial meeting, Xiomara was knowledgeable, helpful, and professional. I enjoyed walking through our home with her and listening to her creative vision. Now that it has come to fruition, we couldn't be more pleased with her thoughtful and practical design. I recommend Xiomara for anyone who is looking for architectural services.

Xiomara and Paredes-Grube was an absolute joy to work with. Xiomara listened to us about what we wanted and gave us terrific creative input in our home renovation. The design she provided is above and beyond what we hoped for going into our project. We are extremely happy with the service she and her team provided from start to finish. She is a true professional and I highly recommend her services.

We had a wonderful experience from start to finish with Xiomara Paredes and her excellent team! From our first meeting, Xiomara was able to clearly understand and articulate what we wanted, collaborate creatively with us in coming up with designs, flexibly adapt plans as needed, smoothly and professionally obtain necessary variances, work well with our contractor and kitchen designer, and accurately project reasonable timing and costs for the entire project. She and her team were always responsive, warm and a pleasure to work with! We all love the resulting addition to our home and would highly recommend Xiomara and her team!

Our experience with Xiomara and the Paredes-Grube Architecture team was fantastic! Xiomara is an absolute delight to know and to work with; her creative ideas and enthusiasm generated so much excitement for our home renovation, and her extensive knowledge was reassuring throughout the process. She and her team are consummate professionals, always attentive and responsive. They listened closely to our needs and took great care in every facet of the design that transformed our home and has improved our quality of life beyond measure. Numerous neighbors and passersby have asked us for our architect’s name – Of course we highly recommend Xiomara to everyone!

After meeting with few other architects, I decide to work with Xiomara without no hesitation.
When I had a first meeting with her, I knew she is a perfect architect for our own property face lift project.
Her advice was realistic, professional & practical which is not that many architects gave us such ideas and advice in the first meeting.
Throughout the entire processing, Xiomara and Paredes-Grube Architecture team were very responsive and responsible when contractor and I had a questions and concerns.
Totally no stress and smooth processing. Highly recommend!

Working with Paredes-Grube and especially Xiomara was like spending a quiet afternoon with an old friend. We talked about wishes, dreams and utilitarian questions along the lines of usage and needs. Xiomara provided plans that were quickly approved by Glen Rock and she remained engaged with my wife and I as we worked with our contractor. In the end, the finished product is logical, well laid out and extremely pleasing to the eye. There's not a day that I don't walk into our new addition and take a moment to acknowledge how much we love living in it.

We renovated our entire home last year and had Xiomara Paredes as our architect. We could not be happier with the work of Xiomara and her staff - they were professional and responsive throughout the entire process. Most importantly, with Xiomara's vision, we were able to update our house which was built in 1910, and keep the charm of our "old Ridgewood home".

It was a pleasure working with Xiomara and the Paredes- Grube team. The small details in the design made all the differences when it came to the elegance of the full scale. It far exceeds my expectations. And they were present through the whole process which was reassuring and comforting. I highly recommend them.

We had an excellent experience working with Xiomara and her team! We had some sense of what we wanted to do in our kitchen to open up the space, but the ideas Xiomara came up with and the details she incorporated in our plans were above and beyond our expectations. She is extremely professional and thoughtful in her work. The results were fantastic!

We hired Xiomara to do a kitchen/dining room renovation. Working with her was a wonderful experience. She was available to answer our questions and keep our stress level to a minimum. She is a true professional in every aspect; which is a rarity these days. Her ideas were better than anything we ever could have come up with. She was able to use every square inch to get us the most for our money and then some. We highly recommend this firm and would absolutely use Xiomara for any future remodels.

Xiomara is the epitome of a true professional. She patiently worked with my husband and I to formulate a plan for a complete home renovation of our over one hundred year old home which optimized our space with very suttle, yet transformative changes. The entire process, from conceptualization, to variance approval, to realization was effortless with Xiomara’s oversight. She is truly a pleasure to work with! Additionally, her staff is very knowledgabe, personable and accommodating. We absolutely love our “new” old home and would highly recommend Paredes-Grube Architects to anyone considering a renovation.
Thank you Xiomara!!

Our experience working with Xiomara was great!
Her creativity, experience and personality worked together to make a seemingly overwhelming renovation project a less complex undertaking.
My wife and I would highly recommend using Xiomara as her work far exceeded our expectations.
