TESTIMONIAL

“I met Elliott while working on a project in Boston. I was the plumbing and hvac contractor and worked closely with Elliott to fit 10lb on mechanical equipment into a 5lb bag. I thought he did a great job representing his clients vision while allowing us to fit important infrastructure throughout the home. It's a very difficult balance but Elliott was excellent to work with and the end product speaks for itself. When my wife and I decided it was time to expand our own home I immediately thought of Elliott. A lot of it was due to his easily going personality and eye for design but what was really important for us is that he does fantastic 3d renderings of the space. Like most projects we have a limited budget and time frame and can not afford to waste either on a space that won't work for our large family. Since we started working with Elliott he has been easy to get in contact with, provided a reasonable turnaround with rough drafts designs, and offered really insightful perspectives about the space we are trying to create.”
