“My husband and I are remodeling both of our bathrooms, and want to open up our kitchen area so it works better with the layout of our house. Marcus has been working with us and he's been fantastic. Even though it is just a remodel, he's given us so many great ideas to tie the whole house together, as well as help us understand what is worth spending money on for the long run, and where we could save. He's making the process really fun and exciting, and I can't wait to live in a house that is finally well designed and perfectly us. Also, he lives is San Luis Obispo, CA and we live in Santa Cruz, which I thought might be a problem when it came down to meeting one on one, but he was very flexible and has been shooting up to meet with us multiple times bringing beautiful sketches of ideas, or examples of materials for us to look at. I hightly recommend him for big or small projects. He's truely a professional.”

“I have been commissioned to do freelance photography by RRM Design Group since June 2012, so this review is not for only one project, but for multiple projects. I enjoy working with RRM because of their professionalism, community involvement, environmentally conscientious and high level designs. Each project has been interesting and unique, which has made them a pleasure to photograph. RRM has used my photographs on their web site, marketing materials, design competition submittals. A few of the projects have been published in trade magazines, including a cover photo. On the administrative side scheduling and setting up the photo shoots as well as payments have been a smooth process. Communication about photography project objectives and anything else that has come up have been excellent. I would highly recommend working with RRM Design Group.”

“Odenwald Construction Inc. built a custom home and barn/guesthouse for us in 2011. They managed the project from beginning to end with professionalism, honesty and integrity. Our property was raw land, (20 acres) and required much in the way of planning. We had no utilities and are located in a rural area. The Odenwald team handled everything from design to permits then subsequently to construction. They helped us with everything from acquiring electricity & solar energy, to heater floors and all of our many beautiful finishes. All of these feats were managed without a glitch and we enjoyed the entire process. They came in on time and in never went over the promised budget. We worked in perfect harmony. This is the best recommendation we can give in today’s world to a fabulous builder…”
