David designed and supervised our house renovation. The scope of renovation was building an…read moreadditional garage bay, new screened porch and deck, laundry room, extending existing family room and kitchen and renovating all bathrooms and the kitchen. Our challenges included transforming a standard traditional house into contemporary style home. A few architects that we interviewed had no idea how to approach the project. David drew us a picture of our new house in the first meeting in 10 minutes. Then he took the house measurements, entered them into an architectural software and produced a computer design of our house renovation. At any stage of the design we were able to see the pictures of the new design or get into 3D viewer and "walk" around the house trying on the new spaces. David helped us to find the right GC. David guided us through the entire construction process, helped managing the billing schedule and controlling the budget. David introduced and designed many interesting details in the house: the new stairs, kitchen, fireplaces, front entrance, doors, windows, trim. He paid attention to every little detail and worked on it. He designed and implemented innovative lighting ideas in the house. David explained all his ideas to the contractors while he was overseeing the construction, frequently visiting the site. He detailed the tile layouts and the plumbing fixtures locations to agree with the layout. David found a kitchen maker who made our challenging kitchen exceptionally well. David always knew the best materials for the task and where to find them for the best price. He is a very professional, knowledgable designer. He is very efficient to resolve any problem or find a competent professional who can do that. We have now our dream house that has a lot of light and space. We are convinced that our house would never be that great without David's work.

We hired Light House to design a beach house for us. We thought we knew what we wanted, but David…read moredesigned a house that we would have never thought of that we adore. He has more ideas in one minute than most people have in their lifetime! But he is also very practical and budget-oriented, and continually suggested alternate materials or methods that would get the same effect for less money. He also designed all the furniture and lighting, even the pool. I can't imagine ever leaving this house- it's actually hard to go on vacation now, because we miss all the custom touches. We just can't say enough.

We used Kevin's design for a new build in Concord and love out home!…read more Kevin worked closely with us to get a sense of our style of living (many outdoor activities with kids) and designed an amazing home for us that fits our needs and design preferences. This was our first build and we found it very helpful that Kevin was accessible (email, text, phone) and came to weekly on-site meetings with us and the builder. He did a great job translating some of the technical speak from the builder and even playing mediator between my wife and I on a couple minor items. (I still don't think you can spend too much on a "man cave") :) We've had a few requests for our architect's name and I never hesitate to recommend him. We'd certainly use him again.

Allen and his team came up with an amazing plan to bring my newly purchased and outdated condo up…read moreto a new and modern day look that both my fiance and I wanted. I initially had reservations about using a designer in general because I wasn't sure how everything would look and I wanted my house to be mine after everything was said and done. Allen was very receptive to my concerns and helped both me and my fiance understand the remodeling process and helped to keep in in control of the process. His suggestions ended up being exactly what I was looking for and then some! He was even able to help me work around the restrictions of my condo association which was amazing! Highly recommended I can't say it enough.

Allen and his team at Sovereign Design Associates are simply fantastic. We entered into a full home…read moreremodel and huge addition with a lot of trepidation. Essentially, most of our house was demo'd for this major project. We were nervous about everything, cost, design, etc and Allen walked us through each step, making us extremely confident about the project. He is very thoughtful and experienced when it comes to both function and thinking long term to resale value. Allen made many suggestions that we did not know were even possible to increase the functionality of our (new) home. We are now in the midst of the renovation/addition and he is still involved in the process to make sure we are happy with the design. I really cannot say enough about him as well as the contractor that he referred us to. We would highly recommend Allen and SDA (so much so that 2 of our neighbors are planning to work with him in the near future)!
