Maggie Marrone of Marrone Architects provided architectural services for the renovation of my house…read morein Westchester and did an outstanding job at a reasonable price! You can't ask for anything more from an architect. Maggie drew up the plans for a finished basement and redesign of my entire first floor. The renovation was fairly complicated, especially creation of a finished basement which involved lowering the existing basement floor, underpinning of the foundation walls, and complicated re-routing of existing plumbing and electrical. Maggie drew up all the blue-prints, took care of all the necessary filing and permits with the Village, and oversaw all of the work performed by contractors and subcontractors. Maggie is also as pleasant as can be and was super responsive to all of my phone calls and emails. She even has contacts for engineering services at a reasonable price; you will find that engineering calculations are almost always required for any major renovation, and that a good engineer at a reasonable price is impossible to find. Needless to say, the renovation turned out beautifully, and without exaggeration, I could not have done it without Maggie's services!!! If you are considering any kind of major renovation or re-design of a home Westchester County or surrounding area, you should check out Marrone Architects (work: 914-779-5538 email: mgmaia5@aol.com).

Chaim's many years of experience helped us avoid costly mistakes and overruns. His understanding of space and finishes is 2nd to none, and his attention to detail made me and my company look great, and helped us land many additional projects. I highly recommend Pyramid Design Group and hope to be doing many more projects together with them in the future.

We chose Brian from 4 different architects based on his portfolio as well as his general demeanor in dealing with people. He gave us several design options when we told him our wish list and worked closely with us in the lead-up to the actual construction; tweaking the designs to accommodate our ideas and presenting us with alternative ideas to help us realize better design options. Brian's familiarity with Teaneck, NJ building codes was very important to our project as my wife and I had heard from other contractors and architects that Teaneck is a lot more stringent than other townships. We found this to be true during subsequent inspections during the 6-month course of construction as well as post-construction application for Certificate of Occupancy. Brian was with us every step of the way, helping us resolve unforeseen issues (HVAC) as well as providing various drawings required by the township at various stages leading up to the CO. We can whole-heartedly recommend Callahan Architecture for the quality of the work as well as quality of Brian's character.

She creatively used every inch of space and was able to maximize storage for us. The ideas she thought of, we would have never thought of and I am so thankful for.

We recently put our place on the market and received 10+ offers within 5 days at ask and above. Everyone loved all the built ins (entertainment center, mudroom area, built in benches, desk are, storage column) all which were her ideas and vision. I cried happy tears!

Jim consulted with me several times on my gut renovation project and provided expert advice.

I saw a passive house he was gut renovating in Park Slope, and it was absolutely stunning! Jim knows how to preserve historic details while bringing the design into the modern era in a tasteful, classic way. He exudes calmness and wisdom and is a pleasure to be around. Full disclosure in that I ultimately had to choose a less experienced architect because Jim's fee, although completely reasonable given his level of skill and expertise, was a bit out of our price range.

Jim is very detailed and each week during renovation, we had him manage the project with the contractor to ensure the final output was done properly. Most Manhattan apartments are not symmetrical, so the early stage on doing things a certain way goes a long way on the final look. He understands plumbing, and electrical well to communicate to our contractors. He referred us to a HVAC engineer. When it came to interior design, we had Sarah who provided feedback and suppliers information. She was also very helpful. Jim knows the DOB process well and helped us resolved many issues even during covid and DOB rule changed in 2020 and 2021. We also had him manage the project with the contractors. The contractors don't have the same design eyes and were a bit sloppy and forgetful so it was imperative to have Jim help us. Urban charges by the hour and provided an accurate estimate of the cost. Make sure what projects he's working on so he can allocate time properly. In the beginning with the design drawing schematic, it took a while cause he was on a couple of brownstone projects but overall still have a very positive experience with Jim. He was responsive.
