Dane

We are extremely pleased with the final design of our new home on Kiawah. Chelsea is professional, responsive, extremely easy to work with and very knowledgeable in her field of architecture.

Sandy

Chelsea has been a dream to work with! We were looking for an architect that could translate our vision of a contemporary, yet warm and organic home on our marsh/ocean front property on Edisto Island, South Carolina. We have loved the process and would highly recommend Chelsea!

Jill

The design process with Chelsea was so much more than we ever expected designing our home could be. Not only is she an incredibly gifted architect, her ability to translate who we are as people into the home of our dreams is remarkable. She is patient, creative, responsive, encouraging and up for a challenge.
