Melissa was wonderful to work with. She was able to take all our magazine clippings and long list of wants and needs and pull together a floor plan that worked perfectly. Melissa not only thought of our present needs but gave us a plan that would accommodate our future needs as well. Great to work with, always available to talk with and extremely patient with us.

A year into our $100,000+ renovation of a pre-civil war house on Main Street, all we can say is that it would not have been possible without Melissa Clark's assistance. In addition to drawing blueprints, Melissa handled the bidding process, filed the necessary permits, met with the Historic Committee of the City government, performed site visits, and coordinated the purchase of appliances and fixtures. In all areas, Melissa was extremely quick to respond, efficient and thorough. We intend to use Melissa's services on our next project and would recommend her without hesitation.

We have been partnering with Melissa for design work for over 2 years now. She is an amazing talent. She brings fresh new ideas. Her responsiveness to my clients and professional manner has been a delight to work with in this busy construction climate. Our award for 2007 Contractor of the Year would not have been possible without her input and eye for design. Melissa, we make a great team, I look forward to working with you in the future to come.

Melissa has been wonderfully patient and extraordinarily helpful during our house hunt. She has given us countless creative ideas for remodeling possibilities and has understood our needs as a family. We couldn't buy another house without her!

Melissa did a fantastic job taking my rough ideas and sketches and turning them into an incredibly beautiful and functional addition. It has changed the whole back of our house and yet blends as though it was part of the original structure.
Also, the whole design process was smooth and efficient. Melissa is so easy to work with - she really listened to our questions and ideas. The finished plans were very detailed and thorough. I believe the high quality of the plans was a huge factor in the ease with which our builder completed the project.

In the design business, partnering with a good architect is key and Melissa is one the best resources I have. She is a great talent--listening carefully to the client’s wants and needs, providing creative solutions to design projects from A to Z, and is one of the best in the business. She is always timely and professional--a great partner. Thanks, Melissa.

In our opinion, Melissa Clark sets the bar for architectural services. Melissa is the only architect we know that can work equally well with both the Homeowners and Contractors. She is gifted in her collaborations with Homeowners to crystallize their ideas into effective architectural plans. As Contractors, we really appreciate Melissa's high caliber construction plans which are accurate, detailed, and architecturally superior. We send every design job we have to Melissa because we know no one else can match her customer satisfaction, professionalism, quality plans, and quick turn around.
