Syncopated Architecture

We worked withed Syncopated on a full-home renovation and a vertical addition, and they were indispensable throughout the entire process. Serina had actually worked with the home's previous owners on the plans, so we first met when we were considering purchasing the house. She was very generous to talk us through the plans before we were officially clients, and we continued working with her throughout the course of the remodel, which all in all took about 3 years. It was a long and complicated process, with Covid, SF DBI delays, supply chain issues, even a flood - basically the most challenging time ever to do a major renovation - and we couldn't have done it without Serina and team. We were thrilled with the end result and love our home. We especially valued Serina's knowledge of San Francisco codes and processes, the flexibility with which she incorporated our ideas and needs into the previous owner's plans, and her project management of the engineers and contractors during certain key points of the project. I think I've had enough remodels for life, but if I did it again, Syncopated would be my first call!

I have worked with Serina on both my own personal house and then on investment properties with a friend. For our own home Serina found a way to fit a 4th bedroom in the 1st level, while everyone else we spoke with only saw three bedrooms. The 4th bedroom made a huge difference. Thank you Serina

I wholeheartedly recommend Serina at Syncopated Architecture to anyone considering a project in SF. As we all know, there are many constraints and considerations that come into play when designing spaces in the city. Serina deeply understands the ever-changing landscape of SF regulations, and skillfully guided me to workable, creative options that helped me achieve my project goals. If you are considering working with Serina, do not hesitate!

Syncopated Architecture has been an exceptional firm for my drawing preparation/permit submittal needs. I remodel a lot of multi-family residential buildings in SF and they have exceeded my expectations over and over again for the last 6 years. I've worked with a lot of other architectural firms, but Serina at Syncopated truly knows how to navigate the City and provide a painless experience.

Working with Syncopated Architecture has been a top notch experience. They've joined in on our large-scale residential remodel ready to work with us as a team. Serina brings incredible expertise and joy to the project, with her professionalism extending all the way through the firm. They offered creative solutions, provided clean and clear drawings and modeling and come to meetings prepared.
