Having come from a continuous lineage of master builders, designers and developers, predating at least to Sixteenth Century Zurich, Switzerland, such endeavors evoke a passion that is ensconced in the core of my being.

The BA degree in architecture from UC, Berkeley, hands-on experience in all phases of construction, construction management, permitting processes, business ownership, Class A builder licenses, engineering coordination, real estate brokerages and contracts, land developments, and my innate and cultivated design abilities and experience — from my youth to the current day —provide me with a depth of background and acumen that pervades every phase of the design/construction/ development process — and that makes possible the level and range of expression that you see in the sampling of projects provided in this website.

As in all things worthwhile, empathy and respect are the golden keys to authentic communication between sentient beings. My humble and honored task is to utilize my talents, experience and expertise to rouse from the hearts and psyche of my clients the best of their hopes and dreams — so that we may bring about, together, such fulfillment in physical expressions as will enrich and excite them beyond their fondest expectations.

Life is meant to be delightful! Life is teeming with creativity and is begging for the opportunity to express itself!

My experience is vast, my passion is deep, my overhead costs are low, and my fees are very reasonable; so, let’s join together to make beautiful, practical, livable spaces and environments that will bless all who enter them, for countless generations to come!

I look forward to hearing from you. You will not regret it! As one happy client stated in an unsolicited letter to me after I completed her design/remodel job: “It was my lucky day when I found you! Your very pleased and thankful ‘client,’ Viola.”
