"Exceptional Architect – Highly Recommend Rob Drury, RA Working with Rob Drury, RA, was an absolute pleasure. He did an outstanding job on our deck project and made what could have been a very stressful permitting process feel effortless. Rob is incredibly knowledgeable, highly responsive, and thorough in his work. His professionalism, attention to detail, and calm guidance were invaluable throughout the process. On top of that, his pricing is very reasonable, especially considering the top-tier quality he delivers. We couldn’t be more satisfied and wholeheartedly recommend Rob to anyone in need of an excellent architect."

"hired Steven to guide me through a complete rebuild of a 1950's 1200 sq.ft. home into a contemporary 2,500 sq.ft. home to accommodate 2 independent lifestyle with both homes having complete autonomy. Steve was patient and creative in interpreting our design needs. the end result was not only a tremendous increase in the overall value of the community but the design completely blended into the surrounding original neighborhood home facades. Brilliant. The ideas and designs that were implanted today still are current and the quality of the space is still exciting and inspiring."

"We had a difficult case that COVID made even more difficult to evaluate. After speaking with Eran, I was ready to grasp what I can do next. I would highly recommend calling ESL Designs for a virtual consult. Do not wait until COVID is over. Your home is everything. Do not risk permanent damage if you believe something is wrong. Discuss it with trained specialists who know what they are talking about."
