My wife and I needed someone to design our dream home. We were so happy that we picked Studio Hamlet to do the job. Russ guided us through the process and made everything so easy. He took the fear and anxiety about such a big decision and transformed into the excitement and great expectation of living in our dream home.
Russ helped us to understand all of the ins and outs of home design and construction. He also made picking materials and colors so easy. I highly recommend Studio Hamlet for any job big or small.

Russ was easy to work with and very professional. He thought outside the box and created a solution to our remodel project that solved many issues and captured a better overall look to our home while keeping with the architectural integrity of our style home. Cant wait to have him come back on another project!
