As an Architectural Sales Representative for a Large, Bay Area Masonry Distributor, I can honestly say that SDG Architects are far and away the best firm I have ever worked with. I believe the best way to grow a successful business is to establish true lasting business relationships. SDG Architects continues to foster this quality in every way. Just a joy to work with....

We are 90% through our custom build, and we have been 100% happy with Thad and the team at SDG. Thad has the great skill of really listening to and honoring his clients’ wishes (and has the flexibility to incorporate as many as are reasonable), but he also knows when and how forcefully to guide and interject when he has a strong opinion or thinks you could be making a mistake. Many of the elements that Thad introduced (especially the lines of sight he created throughout the home) are among our favorite features of our dream house.

It's a pleasure to work with SDG Architects! I recommended SDG Architects to a few of my clients with larger projects and the collaboration was a success. SDG Architects has a great custom home team with innovative ideas and vast knowledge and experience. I look forward to work with them again and I highly recommend them.

DP Advanced Engineering has partnered with SDG Architects on hundreds of projects over the last 7 years and have found them to be very professional. The SDG team is talented, efficient and responsive. Their designs are beautiful, creative, and sustainable. They bring valuable experience working on different types of projects and also dealing with different municipal jurisdictions. It’s a pleasure to partner with a team with so much passion for their work. We would highly recommend them for your next project!

As an interior designer, I know that a home is only as good as its architecture. I have worked on a handful of projects with Thad at SDG architects, and his work embodies great design. He is knowledgable, creative, thoughtful, and a good communicator. His process is collaborative, and I appreciate how he fosters a team approach to elevate the end result of the project. On numerous occasions Thad took a seemingly impossible design idea and was able to come up with creative solutions to make the idea a reality. He and his team are responsive and prompt. I highly recommend Thad and SDG architects!

It is a pleasure to work with SDG Architecture. Whether it’s dealing with the principals of the firm or any of their talented team members, you are always made to feel that they have your utmost satisfaction in mind. Their staff has a diversity of experience who can recommend various types of architecture or product type that will be best suited for your project. They also bring valuable experience to the table from working with a wide variety of municipal jurisdictions. This experience helps set realistic timelines for your project as well as to help identify the most positive approach for gaining key approvals for your project. I would not hesitate to recommend SDG Architecture to anyone who wants to bring an innovative approach to their project.

SDG’s designs are great! We didn’t work directly with them but our custom home was designed by their team and we love it. We entertain a lot and the open floor plan is perfectly designed for that purpose. The house has great flow and beautiful exterior colors and finishes. We love our house and we greatly recommend SDG Architects and their design team.

SDG Architects has been a partner and co-collaborator on several successful projects over the past decade. They are efficient, professional, responsive, and creative. We have confidently referred several of our Custom home clients and they have all thanked us for the referral. You would be wise to consider SDG Architects for any of your design and architecture needs.

Jeff Potts at SDG designed us an incredible, award winning guest house! What I particularly like about Jeff is his open and approachable style. We've worked with many architects over the years and many simply don't want to listen to the client. Jeff listens and then delivers a design beyond your expectations. I would highly recommend working with them.
