expertise & experience:

Lawren did a great job for me on a couple projects that required out-of-the-box thinking. In addition to being innovative, Lawren is efficient, timely and a pleasure to work with.

​What I’ve recognized is Lawren’s expertise in creating plans that work. He has a talent for aesthetically pleasing design coupled with construction simplicity.

Our experience with Lawren was great. He had great design ideas and a very usable set of plans which is just what we asked for.

It was nice to have Lawren, who is knowledgeable about building departments and what their requirements are, to walk through the process with me. I appreciate his expertise in design and consultation that he offers his customers.

I had a very positive experience working with Lawren on my project. He was very receptive to my ideas and proved adept at incorporating them into the design.

It has been a pleasure working with Lawren for the past 15 years! We have always been on the same page, have communicated well and I truly appreciate his talent for design and his professional advice. His drawings are put forth in an understandable manner and are easy to read. We have many satisfied clients who are pleased with their homes and look forward to many years of enjoyment in them.

As a custom home builder, I have worked with Lawren on many projects and I really appreciate the way he interacts with my clients. He listens well and then produces. I’m consistently impressed with the way he can place a house on a piece of land and everything makes sense: window placement, room sizes, door swings, and overall functionality of the home. I highly recommend Lawren for any custom home design.
