Drafting Professionals in Seattle, WA

“I am so pleased with the work the Refine Design architecture team has delivered for our home remodel. We bought a funky 1940s house that needs a ton of love and work. At first, it was quite overwhelming to not know the possibilities of the home and what could modernize it but also maintain some of the original factors that we love. We had a couple of ideas when we sat down with the team and they not only helped bring our vision to life, but offered different ideas and a point of view we had not thought of. I highly recommend this duo - they are incredibly easy to work with and passionate about what they do. Thank you both for your help with our home!”

“We have worked with Patricia Brennan Architects on 4 different projects of varying scale - from a kitchen/bathroom remodel to the transformation of a 4-story derelict warehouse into an AIA award winning building of artist live/work spaces. Each experience has left us with a deep appreciation for the work she does and how she does it. Patricia listens closely - she listens to the physical space of the project and she listens to the desires and needs of her clients. She engages in a collaborative dialogue at the outset of a project and continues the dialogue until the project is complete. She has an amazing sense of color, a wide range of knowledge about all kinds of materials (from lighting to flooring and everything in between) and she provides recommendations for high quality professionals and reliable contractors. She’s attentive to detail, to budget, to practical problem solving and to the aesthetics, flow and functionality of a space. Each project we’ve done with Patricia has exceeded our hopes and left us with living spaces we love to be in. We feel fortunate we were able to work with Patricia for the first time 22 years ago – after that initial experience we knew whenever we embarked upon another project she would be the only person we would call. Her work has added to our lives immeasurably.”

“We've toured the residential and commercial projects created on Bainbridge Island by Coates Design, and have followed their work for years. Our office was in the same building, and we often stopped in to learn more about their projects. We've always been impressed by their great architectural sense of aesthetics, and their ability to create innovative work that blends well into the surroundings of the project location. Very professional, very pleasant and very accomplished.”

“JT was clear, helpful, open to design ideas - with plenty of his own. He clearly has a lot of experience and patience with his clients. He is a clear communicator, and was very helpful to work with.”

“After hearing countless horror stories about the remodel and construction process, I have to say that architect Jeff Babienko and his team at bARC have made the journey better than we could have ever imagined. His approach, vision, professionalism and attention to detail are nothing less than top notch. Babienko has a very thorough up-front exploration process that we thought a bit excessive, but discovered that it is this very process that allows him to steward the project with all the nuances of "feel", aesthetic and functionality that we were after with the remodel. While we forgot certain elements of what we wanted along the way, he and his team did not. It was amazing! The entire journey was a very collaborative, seamless and an entirely transparent process. His expertise as the interface with the construction team was invaluable and we can't imagine having done it any other way. We won't work with anyone else!”

“In the realm of architecture, finding someone who not only designs a house but crafts a home tailored to your dreams is like discovering a hidden gem in a sea of stones. Matthew isn't just an architect; he's a dreamweaver, a magician who took the blueprint of our aspirations and transformed it into a tangible reality that exceeds every expectation. We purchased land near Pine Lake in Sammamish with permitted plans, but we found ourselves uninspired by the proposed house design. Despite numerous revisions, the essence of our vision was missing. Seeking guidance, we turned to Matthew, who quickly identified flaws and presented fresh design options. Entrusting him with the decision-making process, we were captivated by his vision, prompting us to halt construction and embark on a new journey to craft the home of our dreams alongside Matthew. Matthew's approach isn't just about drawing lines and angles; it's about understanding the soul of a space. He didn't just listen; he absorbed our dreams, our fears, and our aspirations, infusing them into every curve and corner of the design. His probing questions sparked conversations that delved deeper than architectural aesthetics, forging a connection that transcended mere client and architect. Throughout our collaboration, Matthew exuded professionalism like a beacon in the night. His guidance was not just about making decisions but about empowering us to make informed choices that resonated with our vision and budget. His transparent communication and unwavering support transformed what could have been a daunting process into a journey of discovery and joy. Matthew's design transcends the ordinary, weaving together elements of comfort, elegance, and warmth in a tapestry of architectural brilliance. The way he seamlessly integrated indoor and outdoor spaces, framing breathtaking views with each window, fills us with a sense of awe and gratitude every time we walk through the door. For anyone seeking not just a house but a home—a place where memories are made—I wholeheartedly recommend Matthew. His talent, his passion, and his unwavering commitment to excellence make him not just an architect but a trusted partner in the journey of turning dreams into reality. As we eagerly anticipate the commencement of construction, we extend our heartfelt thanks to Matthew for his invaluable contributions. We are truly fortunate to have had him by our side throughout this transformative process. Shweta and Shilen”

With them you get the full package: superior design sensitivity with experience in the trenches of residential construction. They consider every detail of how the building will be experienced inside and out. Rest assured that you are working with one of the most talented design teams in Seattle.”

“Sketched up some ideas for our future home and got exactly what we were looking for. The drawings turned out great. Gabe was very easy to work with and supportive of all our ideas and little changes to make this our perfect forever home.. I would highly recommend him.”

“Renovation design for our 1910 crumbling craftsman - updated the look while preserving craftsman character. Punched out the roofline to create a dramatic front porch that casts lighting into a beautiful cedar ceiling you can see from a block away. We have the most unique craftsman on the block that is both beautiful and functional. Highly recommend!!”
