They know the building codes and hence can anticipate issues that may come up during permitting, designing, and constructions.

We have used other architects before, but Alex Tzang Architects is amazing. I'd highly recommend them.

After speaking with a couple of architects, we decided to go with Jessica. She really listened to what we wanted and came up with a few layout options that aligned with our vision.

They responded quickly to the city's comments, which helped keep the project moving forward without unnecessary delays. It was a great experience working with Jessica and her team. We're really glad we chose them and would definitely recommend them.

Since we were working with a small space (and a limited budget), Lisa and Ellis took the time to understand our needs, and then presented us with a variety of design options, offering creative solutions that matched our tastes, while making the best use of limited space. They were especially helpful in coming up with a color scheme that integrated the bathroom elements, and blended with the qualities of the adjoining room. Lisa then worked closely with us in choosing tile, paint, fixtures, window treatment, cabinetry, etc. so that they all worked together. We are completely happy with our new bathroom, and would recommend Lisa and Ellis and EASA Architecture for any design or architectural work. [Previously, we worked with EASA Architecture in a major kitchen remodel, and our satisfaction with their work at that time made them our obvious choice for this recent project.]

Jeanne is so wonderful, I can't recommend her enough. if you have the opportunity to work with her,…read moreyou shouldn't hesitate. She was the architect and designer for our Master Bathroom, Master Bedroom, and Basement. Our project was fairly complicated and had a lot of details to it. Choosing Jeanne for our project was easy. Early in our search for an Architect, many homes on our street in Burlingame immediately recommended Jeanne (including the neighbors across the street and diagonal to us). We spoke to 4 architects and Jeanne's ideas, creativity, organization, and friendliness stood out to us. Additionally, when we asked our neighbor (who is a well known developer in Burlingame) who he would recommend, he said without a doubt Jeanne. About a year and a half later after we first contacted Jeanne, I can confidently say the reasons we decided to work with Jeanne are still true through the end of the project. It has just been such a pleasant experience working with her. My wife and I are both very detail oriented (I work in Product Management and my wife in Finance) and we can emphatically say Jeanne is more detailed than both of us.

We are currently transitioning to the construction phase, and are excited to raise our family in such a thoughtfully designed space. Also, Geoff and team are true experts at navigating the San Francisco permitting process. They efficiently moved us through permitting, both reacting to feedback from the city and helping us manage our neighbors. Honestly, we could not have permitted the house without their guidance. In a city where building homes can be difficult, the one two punch of beautiful design + the knowledge and skill to get it across the line was invaluable. We are so appreciative of Geoff and team.

The pace of the job was very smooth right off the bat and only picked up once the work started. During the design phase the team including Liane were very pleasant to work with. Liane was extremely patient and helpful while she met us at two design stores to assist us in choosing colors and layouts. Once the work started, we were very impressed with the site prep as Eli delivered on keeping as much dust out of the the rest of the house. He made sure crew setup plastic sheeting throughout the whole bottom floor with zipper doors included so we could still access the living room and upstairs. From here, we were very pleased with the pace of things. Eli and his team are very eager to work and do not make you wait. The demo happened very quickly and before we knew it we were moving very quickly through rough electrical and plumbing. The rest of the job went very smoothly and ended up being ahead of schedule. At any time if something was not right, Eli was very open to our suggestions and critiques and always made sure his crew fixed the issue. Once the work was done Eli was very responsive and always made sure any minor issues/details were address and fixed.
