About the Architect

We chose Peek Design Group to draw up the plans for our addition and the front porch remodel.

This was a debate ... not selecting Peek, but whether or not to have architectural drawings and the expense that comes with it. But boy, was it worth it!

The main benefit is that it gave us concrete plans to hand over to prospective contractors and to say, "Bid on this." Levels the playing field quite a bit.

Dale was great ... he met us back in May (I think) and listened very intently to what we wanted to do. Then he brought out Lauren to draw up initial designs based on our feedback. What we got back was beyond what we could have dreamed up. They were brilliant. Two thumbs up!

These are just the preliminary drawings. The architectural drawings are so detailed, I thought it was just easier to drop the prelims out here.

This is so cool! Love it. You will feel like you have a new house! We added an outdoor living area and pool and now we NEVER leave home! Love seeing your plans.
