My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Working with Minh and his team was such a joy. They have helped us with the beginning stages of bringing our house dreams to life and we are so excited to share with them the final process! Absolutely fantastic team to work with, would highly recommend!

We did a renovation of a very old house and we had such a wonderful experience working with Pinnacle. They really took the time to understand what we wanted and helped bring everything together, from the plan layout and functionality to the colour scheme and overall design. They provided great suggestions and were incredibly responsive. Being completely new to this experience (we’ve never gone through this before), they kept us up to date on the entire process. They handled all the back and forth behind the scenes, particularly with the permitting process which we’ve heard can be a real headache. We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for someone who can handle the architectural planning side or interior design side, or both!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Minh in early 2025. We needed to renovate our current home to meet the growing needs of our family. Our home which is over 100 years old has undergone several small renovations over the years resulting in a patchwork home. Needless to say improving the layout was a challenge. Minh’s vision for our home blew us away! He listened to our needs and came up with an innovative layout, all while considering time, budget, and other constraints. Minh’s interpersonal skills, creative talent, and technical expertise are truly outstanding. I would absolutely not hesitate to recommend Minh or work with him again.

Minh was fantastic. We came to the point where our children needed separate rooms and needed a new layout for our house. Minh was able to balance our needs and our wants. Minh showed us so much more was possible than we had ever imagined. The end result, a design that added a room and improves the flow and feel of the space. We will be recommend Pinnacle Decision Design Associates to our friends and family.

Working with Minh was an exceptional experience from start to finish. His meticulous attention to detail and proactive communication style made the entire process smooth and efficient. Throughout the design phase, he took the time to understand our family's specific needs and provided thoughtful recommendations that truly enhanced our project. What sets him apart is his comprehensive knowledge of local building codes incredible ability to navigate through all the complexities at the City of Vancouver, which proved invaluable during the approval process. He maintained consistent follow-up on project progress and kept us informed at every stage. His adherence to industry best practices while remaining flexible to client preferences demonstrates his professional expertise. For anyone seeking an architectural designer who combines technical excellence with outstanding client service, I highly recommend Minh and his team. His ability to transform our vision into a practical, beautiful design while navigating the complexities of permits and regulations made our project a success.

We had the pleasure of working with Minh to design our family home and had a great experience. From the very first consultation, Minh was thoughtful in his design to try to bring our wishlist and vision together. He was easy to work with and knowledgeable with City bylaws, able to navigate the requirements and challenges. Minh’s communication was always clear and timely, which helped keep the project organized and on schedule. We are forever grateful for our new home and appreciative of Minh’s help in getting us here. We would recommend Minh to anyone looking for a talented and accountable designer. - Alice and Alan

No hesitation in recommending PDDA Ltd. to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional design firm. Minh has always been very calm, professional and patient while explaining until I understood. We already had some ideas about building our house but this was augmented by new suggestions which proved better than we could have expected. The process was very straightforward with all steps and building plans well explained. The work was carried out with complete transparency. Not only is the house design absolutely stunning, but the configuration of the rooms has been so cleverly done. He designs practical buildings without compromising the look or some great features. We absolutely love it. Minh has helped us realize our dream home!

I am delighted to write a review! Minh’s professionalism and artistic vision were evident throughout the entire process. He not only understood our unique needs and preferences but also tackled every challenge with remarkable patience, skill, and creativity. His ability to transform our ideas into a reality exceeded our expectations, and we loved the final outcome and are incredibly pleased with his work. If you are looking for someone who is both professional and deeply talented, he is the designer you need!

Our builder recommended Minh to design our family home and laneway house and we are very happy to have worked with him to build our dream home. Minh is detail-oriented and very knowledgeable about the local zoning regulations and codes which made our work efficient. His initial design of our home checked off our entire wishlist. We only had some minor edits and he was very quick to attend to them. He looked after the whole application with the City of Vancouver and put us at ease through the entire process. If you are looking for someone to work with you on your next project, my family and I highly recommend Minh and his team!

We hired Minh from PDDA Ltd. to help manage our building project. I got to know Minh through another project he was involved in, which was rather complex and had a lot of municipal hurdles to jump through. Minh's knowledge of the municipal regulations made everything so much easier. His organizational skills, clear communication, and problem-solving were outstanding, keeping the project on schedule and within budget. He was exceptionally responsive to our needs, ensuring our vision was realized. We wholeheartedly recommend Minh and his company to anyone in need of a reliable and dedicated project manager.

We do not hesitate to recommend Minh for any of your projects. He is very knowledgeable, experienced, has a good sense of design, & is a pleasure to work with. He is very thorough in his preparation, incorporating our requirements into the drafting of his designs. His first draft was almost perfect, encompassing most of we envisioned our house to be like! We only made minor revisions. We are confident that Minh would meet your expectations.

We worked with Minh in 2021-2022 to design our forever home. He was patient, professional, and had great communication. He listened carefully and made sure to customize our home to suit some of our specific needs, like making sure our existing furniture fit in the space, building a nook for our upright piano, fitting in a kitchen pantry, and creating a large kitchen in the basement suite. For the exterior, he created a design based off our inspiration images and we love it. Even after receiving our building permit, if we had any questions, he always answered them quickly. We found Minh very easy to work with and would recommend him to anyone.
