What Our Clients Say
Honest Advice That Saved Us Thousands
Michael, with Lupine, is amazing to work with! He has designed 2 houses for us. What I like about him is that he would look at our ideas, and tell us the truth about what it would cost... then he would often suggest a different way that could save us thousands and give us the look we were going for!!! He listened to us and truly did an amazing job! Thanks again Michael!

Plans That Far Exceeded Our Expectations
In the absence of eloquent narrative, let me be succinct. Michael delivered plans for my wife's and my dream home, our forever home. He took the specs from us and the builder, and transformed them into plans which far exceeded our expectations. They were also quick to turn things around and help us with changes when we identified elements we wanted to move around at the last minute.

Above and Beyond From Start to Finish
Michael helped us design our home extension. It was so great to work with him. He was always available to answer my questions and he had some great suggestions that helped the project take shape. He is very knowledgeable and when it came to working with my engineer, he always communicated well to make sure the project stayed in compliance. He measured our home, listened to our ideas, and within a few days, he had preliminary sketches done, and even sent us 3D renderings of what it was going to look like. Michael goes above and beyond for his clients and his talent will show through your final product.

He Came to the Site and Got It Right
Michael prepared the plans for our house. He came to the site and interviewed us extensively to make sure he understood our wants and needs. The plan he gave us reflected his understanding of what we wanted. We made some minor changes, which Michael incorporated in a timely manner. I will definitely call him should I ever need any building plans in the future.
