Architect reviews in Oakland, California

His attention to The whole project is what adds to his creativity. People forget things like trim boards and for knobs.

Called this company regarding a commercial project we had going on. They do NOT do any kind of commerical projects. In fact, the woman who answered the phone was very rude and hung up on me when I mentioned commercial work. From my VERY little lack of experience with this company, I would not ever call them again for commercial or private architectural work.

We did a major remodel: new kitchen, 3 new baths, and an ADU in the backyard. We couldn't be happier with our remodel. BPA & D did a great job from start to finish.

I can not recommend Buttrick Projects more highly. The home the Buttrick Projects team designed for us is stunning, unique, responsive to our needs, and every little detail is thoughtful, functional, and beautiful. I would work with them again in a heartbeat.

A number of years ago, I had the opportunity to work with Jerome Buttrick on the renovation of a classic, now landmarked house in Berkeley designed by William Wurster. At the time, I was impressed by how aware and sensitive Buttrick was to the key elements that make the house an icon of the "second generation Bay Area tradition." We modernized the open plan design and strong indoor/outdoor relationships to accommodate a more contemporary functional kitchen and service area of Wurster's first "shed roof house." As a friend and admirer of Buttrick's talent I have kept up with his ongoing architectural projects. I am increasingly impressed with his deepening sensitivity to the evolving Bay Area aesthetic and his skill in moving that aesthetic into the future. I believe that he, with a few other architects practicing in the region, are designing projects that can be said to define the third generation of Bay Area Architecture. Many of his residential projects have an urban character responsive to the contemporary generation of residents that also maintains connectivity with the strong geography and landscape of the region. They are definitive projects of the present and near future.

We have been tremendously fortunate to have Jerome and Ivor guide our residential remodel. From start to finish they prioritized our aesthetic goals with vision and commitment to excellence. They are kind and a pleasure to work with. They communicated well with both my husband and I, as well as with our contractor, working together to achieve something beautiful.

We have recently completed our second renovation with Buttrick Projects. Their strong design vision and attention to detail are second to none, and everyone in the office is deeply committed to their clients. The renovation of our house has been featured on an architectural tour - enough said.

We engaged Buttrick Projects A+D on a full house renovation/rebuild, as well as for three additional, smaller projects over the past 20 years, and have been repeatedly impressed by the quality of their service, attention to detail, and their ability to get things done. Jerome and his team are great people, excellent designers, and have a breadth of experience in the design and construction process. A true pleasure to work with them!

I worked with Jerome and Ivor on an extensive remodel of my 1930's English Tutor style home. The key aspect of the project was to modernize the flow and function while staying in tune with the old-world aesthetic nature of the original home. Buttrick Projects accomplished this beautifully. We finished with landscaping the backyard which included adding a pool. The bronze water feature Jerome designed added the beauty and sound of falling water. BP A+D guides, calibrates, listens, and translates the vision of their clients impeccably.

Buttrick Projects did two major renovations on our house, a 1920s Tudor designed by a noted Bay Area architect. A full kitchen and bath renovation was followed by an extensive remodel of our 2nd floor 10 years later. We have been, and continue to be, extremely pleased with the results. Jerome's design vision and attention to detail are impressive. He struck a fine balance of modernizing our home while keeping with the traditional Tudor 1920s aesthetic. The firm was responsive to our thoughts and extremely professional in their execution. I highly recommend them.
