Just from our first meeting we knew Michael was the Architect for us. He did not waste anytime to get with us to find out what we wanted in a way of design. He had his own thoughts, and he respected our input. With his help we put together a useful design. Michael went to work right away to put an effective team together to get work started to be able to get a permit from the city. He was always on top of things. Michael made sure we had all the requirements needed to get the necessary information for the design review process. He is fun to work with and has an enthusiastic sense of humor. He managed all the necessary steps and even took on some of the responsibilities that we did not want to do or have the time for. If you need an Architect Michael Barber is the one for you.

Understanding the consequences of each of the choices and how they all fit together is uncharted territory for us. Enter Eric. Eric walked us through his method of taking a base sketch and presenting "what if" options in a quick and efficient way that showed not only where we might be heading off-course but also generated a brainstorming session which, we're certain, will produce a far better result. Our enthusiasm for the project also got a boost - no small side benefit. We're more than satisfied - highly recommended!

We loved our experience and wholeheartedly endorse Winder Gibson to anyone looking for a full service architecture firm. From the outset, Geoff and his team demonstrated an exceptional understanding of our family's needs, which they transformed into a beautiful house design that resonates with our aspirations and lifestyle. We are currently transitioning to the construction phase, and are excited to raise our family in such a thoughtfully designed space. Also, Geoff and team are true experts at navigating the San Francisco permitting process. They efficiently moved us through permitting, both reacting to feedback from the city and helping us manage our neighbors. Honestly, we could not have permitted the house without their guidance. In a city where building homes can be difficult, the one two punch of beautiful design + the knowledge and skill to get it across the line was invaluable. We are so appreciative of Geoff and team.
