"Embarking on a home renovation can be a long and daunting experience so working with someone with whom you feel a trust and a connection with is really important. Larry's really approachable and has a good sense of humour - an important quality in situations where tensions can run high. He has a disciplined and very elevated design aesthetic and insists on quality materials and details in finishes. Larry's great at imagining spaces well beyond his clients' expectations. What I most appreciate about Larry is that although on the surface he may push back, he's a great collaborator and wants to deliver a home that his clients will love and be proud of for years to come.

"My wife and I met Larry a few years ago thru a friend as we were searching for an architect for our future home. We immediately hit it off with our aesthetic and vision of what the new home should be. During the process of our home build, Larry was relentless in his attention to detail, whether it be the initial drawings permit stages and build. No detail was left behind from inside to outside. He introduced us to aesthetics that we would have never thought about and what makes our home what it is today. Our home has been featured in Cdn House and Home and numerous tv commercials due to the incredible style that it has. Since that time we’ve engaged Larry on other projects for business spaces and to this day we remain good friends. Quality individual with quality tastes."

"We can’t say enough about Larry. We just love the house and have had so many compliments on what a nice space it is. He totally understood our needs, our wants, and had the artistic modern vision we wanted. Very collaborative and articulate and can thoroughly explain every detail. Would not be afraid to tell a sub-trade to do it over again if he doesn’t like it. Thank you Larry for walking us thru this very difficult time and overseeing the project. I totally would recommend Larry for his vision and enthusiasm. You will also have tons of fun along the way.
Since then, I’ve had Larry design my work studio space and once again very happy with the results and his ability to keep within the budget. Clients and co-workers love the environment and ask if I could rent it out as a live space. I highly recommend working with Larry if you have the opportunity!"

"We are beyond pleased with our home and are flattered by all the compliments we have received from our friends and family. From the beginning, Larry showed such genuine interest in our vision and found a way to ask us all the right questions to help us understand what layouts and circulation works best for us. Our vision of an open concept, modern, yet warm home was beautifully brought together. Larry combined his experience and design vision to ensure the project was a true collaboration. He was honest when we had bad ideas, but also worked with us when we were stuck having to incorporate challenging things. The style and flow that he brought to the design is amazing and perfectly balances function and design. Without Larry, we would never have been able to do this and feel such a sense of accomplishment and pride. Thanks for the expert guidance, advice and friendship Larry ! You'll always be one of the family !"

" I have had the pleasure of working with Larry a few times over the past several years. I always return to work with Larry on every house project we undertake, as he is professional, reliable and has excellent design sense. He gets to know his clients well enough to anticipate their needs and to deliver. He works well with trades and contractors and makes the whole renovation / building experience so much easier to navigate. Larry takes care of his clients and shows in the results. I have recommended him to many acquaintances and friends, all of whom have been as thrilled with his work as we have. "
