I highly recommend Zach Clanahan. We needed an architect to reinvent our backyard to make the space enjoyable for our family. Our contractor recommended Zach and we were impressed with his other projects in the neighborhood. We are glad we chose Zach! He thoughtfully listened to our objectives -- a pool house to host guests, patio space, pergola, etc. He also was very knowledgeable of the Southampton Village building codes, which facilitated approvals. We are very happy with the result and look forward to enjoying the space for years to come.

Working with architect Zachary Clanahan exceeded my expectations not only in professionalism, accessibility and competitive pricing, but also in creating an outstanding design beyond my dreams. If you want to work with an architect with exceptional skill, who listens to your needs, who makes recommendations when you may not know exactly what you want, who is honest and responsible, and who takes great pride in his work, hire architect Zachary Clanahan!
