our testimonials

"Studio21 was easy to communicate with and we always got quick responses to calls, texts and emails. I’ll never forget the day we walked into their conference room and up on the screen was an image of a BEAUTIFUL home, and I said “that’s the kind of home I want” and their response was “this is your home”. It truly took my breath away, as they really understood us and made our dream a reality."

"We had the pleasure of working with Bill when we built our first home. What we thought would be a stressful and daunting process was an absolutely pleasurable experience. They listened to us with great attention and did not miss any details that we wanted included. It was amazing to see how they pulled our idea of an ideal home from our minds and conceptually put them on drawings."

"Our project was a 1000 ft. addition, adding a primary suite, large family room, and a basement with 9ft ceilings. Our addition is seamless and we still receive compliments two years later on how beautiful our addition looks. Our family enjoys being together in our new large rooms. Entertaining is functional and fun and possible! I highly recommend Studio21 Architects for design and/or build services."

And who can forget the array of colors in the changing leaves, albeit for what feels like mere days. The stars certainly aligned for us in this [...]

Recently, I realized that the YouTube series I’ve been working on hasn’t been shared with you all with the fanfare it deserves. As this newsletter goes to print, we’ve uploaded nine episodes, and while that does mean this series is not exactly new, it is likely new to many of our Studio Pages readers. So, let’s officially welcome our not-so-new-anymore series, Design + Build Decoded!

As your friendly neighborhood Studio Pages writer, I can easily attest to the fact that the process of writing these Project Spotlight articles is the best part of my job. So much goes into the creation of these newsletters––not that I’m complaining (I promise!) ––especially the Project Spotlight articles, and I feel incredibly lucky that so many of our past clients, after many months of [...]
