The construction process went great. We were living in the house the whole time except for I think 5 days we spent with my mother. Everyone was very considerate about keeping the dust contained and were really good about cleaning up afterward.
Description of Work: Jibe Design did a beautiful renovation of my tiny old fashioned kitchen, totally opening it up and making it one space with a wonderful added dining room with lots of windows looking out onto our back garden. Juliet is easy to work with and listens to what you want. She has lots of creative ideas and is good at problem solving. Her work really transformed our living space. We absolutely love it!

Description of Work: I met with Juliet. She is very nice and friendly. But she put together a proposal that made no sense and made too many promises she couldn't deliver on. After going back and forth on proposal for weeks at the last minute she pulled and wasting a lot of my time and money.

Response from JIBE DESIGN
The project involved providing recommendations to remedy existing water damage to a townhouse due to poor construction by a previous contractor. We brought a forensic architecture expert onto our team and put together a proposal. After further discussion with the potential client, our team decided we would not be able to provide services to his requirements and we withdrew our proposal.

Juliet is a clear communicator. She helped us understand the process of planning and building and had excellent recommendations for who we could work with to complete our project. Her professionalism was much appreciated.

Juliet was great. She listened to both of our concerns and wants for the master bath and then worked to create the design of both of our dreams by providing inspirational images so we could begin imagining our space. The process was very collaborative and fun. After sketching out a few possibilities, we decided on two final designs. Juliet drew up the top two plans so that we could get estimates from contractors and decide on the final plan. The contractors were impressed with the professional design and Juliet was available to answer any of their questions. We only wish that she lived on our coast so that she could oversee the entire process!
Description of Work: Juliet designed a master bathroom gut and remodel for our 1920s craftsman home in Southern California, with multiple options in order to get bids and estimates from contractors.

Juliet designed our ideal rear patio and garden for our Center City Philadelphia home. She was a pleasure to work with, always prompt and very responsive to our many questions. The space is somewhat tricky; with her expertise and resourcefulness, it not only is maximally utilized but is stunningly beautiful to boot. We continue to receive frequent compliments on the space, and for this we thank Juliet for her terrific design.
Description of Work: Schematic design, design development, and construction documentation for patio/garden design. Work included coordinating with a structural engineer, metal fabricator, and general contractor.

I’ve worked with Juliet of Jibe Design since 2006. Juliet is a hard working, very smart and knowledgeable Architect. She has an eye for unique and creative design elements. She doesn’t hold back or slow down if decisions need to be made. She’s VERY responsive. She works well with contractors and has a good understanding of the construction process. She would be a great asset on a project that required an Architect's involvement from early planning stages through construction close-out. I would trust Juliet with any of my future projects.
Description of Work: Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documentation and Construction Administration Services. Work included coordinating with Structural, Geotechnical, Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing/Fire Protection Engineers.
