antonym is a collaborative architecture studio driven by the belief that creative friction sparks transformative design. |
Antonym is focused and detail oriented but doesn't stray from the big picture of what our family needs from the space. Their adaptive work style meets unexpected project challenges with ease and confidence.–client, Lark Court
Monica is the patron saint of renovation. She took the time to get to know my wants and needs, her attention to detail and wide breadth of knowledge helped me to adapt my vision to changes that were occurring in my life as the project got underway, and her patience and flexibility allowed me the space to process choices at my own pace. She is truly a talented and supportive individual. I couldn’t be happier with my kitchen and with the creative relationship we built, which I hope to revisit when it is time to do my bathrooms.–client, North Carolina
Monica's training, diverse experience, and innate sense of style have contributed to her excellence as an architect. She exhibits all the qualities you'd want in someone working with you - organized, dedicated, flexible, direct, and approachable. Above all, she possesses the unique talent of looking at a space and seeing all that it might be. Over and over, I have seen her identify small, practical tweaks that can elevate a space exponentially. She takes your scattered ideas and musings and transform them into a cohesive theme and vision.–client, Malcolm Drive
We reached out to a lot of designers (from Google searches, Houzz, and IG) but our timing was tight and we needed more of an architect's eye than a designer/decorator. Antonym was perfect! Rounded out what our little team needed!–client, Oxford Ave
Monica’s innovative designs and ability to “get” my lifestyle needs were key to my successful renovation. I appreciated the way the project unfolded and know what could have been a daunting, mind numbing experience turned out to be an enjoyable collaboration of possibilities. Her professional yet easy-going approach helped me to make choices I originally ruled out, but over time grew to embrace, and now love as signature pieces of my remodel. She was there every step of the way, from As-built drawings, selecting a contractor, to building permits. Couldn’t be more pleased with the end result!–client, Francis Place
