My expirience with Tenay and Julian was amazing. We redo our kitchen, and added a second bathroom to our house. The space was pretty small and they provided a beautiful and functional solution. They handled all the permits with the city of Coral Gables in a very efficient way. I'm already planning how to continue working with them. 100% recommend!

I have worked with Julian Quinn for about 4 years while at Jacobs. Julian is
excellent to work with, very professional and knowledgeable in the field. After we both left Jacobs we kept in touch and I recommended him to some
people who were looking for an architect professional. He is a great
designer and I'm confident blank design + architecture will be a success.

We used Julian for plans for a sunroom addition in our home and could not have been more pleased with the work! He was responsive, open to helping us plan the room of our dreams and was available throughout the construction process if our contractor had a question about the plan. We would highly recommend Julian for any design and planning needs!

I hired Blank Design to draw and design my commercial building. The service was fantastic. The most important thing was the communication. The owner always returned my phone calls, always took the time to explain the process and provided me with valuable information. Excellent customer service, excellent work, excellent final results.

We worked with Julian as part of our renovation enclosing a carport and turning it into a master bedroom.
Julian was very professional and friendly during the entire working process, and was always there to answer questions and offer advise along the way. We were very happy and would definitely use him again in the future.

Finally, an architect that listens to what you want and how you want to do it rather than treating us like school children. Even after the contract was finished and they were paid; anything related was handled with a minimum of fuss and quickly. It was a pleasure to work with them. I would highly recommend them. I will be using them again.
