I haven't begun construction yet so i wasn't able to provide drywall-less photos and was looking for a quick online opinion. Daniel graciously offered his professional expertise through photos and videos i provided versus immediately trying to schedule me for an in-person consultation. He even stated he'd prefer to see videos/photos before scheduling an in person consultation to see if it was even necessary. I will definitely be seeking his services when time comes for construction. 10/10 initial impression and will definitely hire for services as needed.

After searching around for several quotes, I found Daniel's pricing to be very reasonable. He was responsive, professional, and his sketch work was thorough and detailed. He was always there to answer any questions I had. Crucially, he also helped me navigate the painstaking plan check process with Public Works. Daniel made a difficult process much more pleasant, stepping in to provide policy guidance to the city to ensure my non-negotiables were approved. I couldn't have gotten through this without his expertise. I highly recommend him to family and friends, and I would definitely work with him again for any future plans.

Dimitrius got through the city's building dept red tape with ease. I think it's personality and…read moreprofessionalism, and the city people who review rolls and rolls of plans seemed to like and appreciate that plus his thoroughness in his work. Everything went smoothly from the day he stepped in. He contacted the city and spoke with the building dept manager and took over our project. We learned the hard way before finding Dimitrius to work with we had hired another company. We found LYNES Architect firm after spending months with another architect and were forced to search and screen all over again to find him. We can say from these experiences that Architects are not created equal. our previous architect kept submitting drawings and getting repeated go-backs from the city losing 3 weeks minimum each round of revisions. Not to mention the added cost of those setbacks for your project. Dimitrius was a pleasure to work with and got the plans drawn and approved on the second submission preventing any extra cost and headaches. His fees are straightforward. Just a pleasure to work with. We realized that if an Architect doesn't have a great personality and professionalism the client suffers. Lot of time and money lost waiting and dealing with months of revision the city will demand. All while your project is delayed and you're stuck. Dimitrius made sure he understood everything and all the codes and made the reviewers work easy for them and that made a world of difference. Thank you Dimitrius!

In 2018, we decided to renovate our home in Orange, CA. We started the process by looking for an…read morearchitect firm to help us with the design process. After interviewing three firms, we selected Dimitrius Lynch of LYNES to help us with architectural services. Dimitrius is an expert in his field, he met with us several times to understand our needs and then work with us to design our "forever home." After a few revisions, we finalized a design that met our needs. During the construction process, Dimitrius was also available to meet with our General Contractor (GC) to discuss changes and revisions to our design. When needed, Dimitrius was quick to provide revisions that were submitted to the city for our project to continue per our timeline. We were extremely satisfied with the services that Dimitrius Lynch and LYNES provided to us. If you are looking for an architect firm who will listen to your needs and deliver a high quality product then please reach out to LYNES.

We hired Ron to do the architectural plans for the remodel of a fourplex. He came in with a fancy camera scanner to measure everything, a very efficient process. He was very much on time with the delivery of the initial draft. We discussed minor changes and submitted to the city, and they had just had a few minor corrections before approval, which is better than other architectural teams I have worked with. After we began work on the project, we discovered a beam in the ceiling was not pointing in the right direction, leading to the need for a revision to the plans. The engineer Margarito went on site and approved changes, which allowed us to quickly adapt. Overall this was a very streamlined process, I would be happy to use his services in the future and can very much recommend him.

Ron was really easy…read moreto work with and did a great job explaining the whole process upfront, especially since we were new to permits and planning. The timeline was totally reasonable (honestly, my slow email responses probably added more time than anything on their end), and the plans were approved by the city on the first try, which was a huge relief. It was also hard to find someone willing to take on a smaller project at a fair price, and they were very thorough. Even months later, they've still been responsive with follow-up questions from our contractor. Would definitely recommend, especially for smaller renovations or additions.

My babies are growing rapidly, and with plans to expand my family next year, it was simply time to increase living space. Mid-Cities Engineering came as word-of-mouth recommendation. I was a little hesitant to be working with a company that was not local to The Valley, but I saw the beautiful work that was completed for my friend and knew I could trust Ivan to help me create my dream home. I wish there was a proper adjective to describe Ivan. He truly is creme de la creme- always so kind, answering a multitude of questions without ever losing his patience, even when he has to repeat himself. The level of detail and care is absolutely unparalleled. Ivan doesn't pass you off once you've decided to work with MCE- he's personally committed to your project as if it were his own home. I cannot wait to see the final outcome. I have no doubt that it will be a beautiful home for my babies to grow up in, and a beloved place for my family to create many precious memories in the years to come. Thank you so much in advance, Ivan!

As this is my first project, I had no idea what to expect and pretty much am surviving the process by the 'ignorance is bliss' motto because I blindly trusted him. My gut instinct was not wrong. The lengths that Ivan went through to ensure that my 1,200 square foot project went as smoothly as possible is unsurpassed. He was available for every text, phone call, and email after hours and on the weekends (my project is in Sherman Oaks). Not once did Ivan lose his patience with me (I know I was plenty neurotic). He was on the phone for countless hours with the City of Los Angeles, making sure that my project was progressing (it's always a nightmare dealing with the city, but exacerbated with this pandemic). Ivan presented options for different crews and negotiated fantastic prices for my project. We've hit a few bumps along the way, but I could always rest assured that Ivan would resolve my issues. I'm ecstatic to be nearing the finish line (I'm certain Ivan is too, but for different reasons, haha). Thank you so much, Ivan! I appreciate you more than you will ever know.
