FROM OUR CLIENT 

TESTIMONIES

‘‘Client reserves right of privacy | Project: Private residence in Fort Walton, FL.

Design Design Studio became known to me through mutual connections and upon hearing about their work in various discussions. After an initial meeting my wife and I found Joe to be extremely passionate about his profession, a quality we felt of great importance particularly in residential design, which reinforced the impressive breadth of work in his niche portfolio. He listened attentively to the requirements of our growing family and over the course of the following months, in coordination with other consultants, developed an extremely beautiful, carefully considered, comfortable family home. I found the company to be very client focussed, innovative in his ideas and professional and would have no hesitation in recommending him for future appointments.

‘‘Tim Condon | Project: Private residence in Myrtle Beach, SC.

Donnelly Design Studio in my view, designers par excellence, the quality of service provided far out stripped any experience I have had in previous construction projects both in South Carolina and Georgia ... Joe saw my beach plot for 10 minutes in Myrtle beach and instantly visualized a concept design beyond my wildest dreams.

‘‘Al Posada | Project: Bait shop/Restaurant in Gainesville,GA .

Thank you Joe for the beautiful rendering you provided. I was battling with the Board of Commissioner’s for over a year to get my restaurant project built. I went to multiple architects for blueprints but the board kept turning me down. I’m so glad I got a hold of you to create a rendered model for my project. When your rendering was presented, I was so surprised they said yes and approved my project right away! They all said only in one condition, it has to look like Mr. Donnelly’s rendering if you want to build it! I have no hesitation recommending Joe for any future design projects he did a great job!

‘‘Judy Guilfoil | Project: Good Shepherd Columbarium in Cumming,GA .

Upon returning to Good Shepherd, I was struck by the power and beauty of the columbarium and garden known as ‘Good Shepherd columbarium & Memorial Garden’, designed and supervised by Donnelly Design Studio. It is an extraordinary structure, yet still has the ability to blend harmoniously with the church facade and grounds. Joe’s vision is a gift from God and has been absolutely blessed with a design talent! Thank you so much for what you have done for our church Joe! God Bless you!

‘‘Client reserves the right of privacy | Project: Private Residence in Elijay, GA .

Joe Donnelly was able to interpret my vision of a modern house and enhanced it with impressive architectural details. My needs and desires were always first priority and I felt spoiled at times. I attribute his ability to understand client needs due to his studio’s diverse experience. Joe’s knowledge of design, and high degree of professionalism, and his eye for detail Made my dream home a reality.

‘‘Anna Wright | Project: Private Residence in Santa Rosa , FL .

Our love story with a beach far away has now lasted for over 10 years and finally we have our own sanctuary on it. From the initial drawings we understood that our search for shapes and atmospheres had come to an end. Joe created an extremely sophisticated organic home without disturbing our contact with the surrounding environment, which was of great importance to us. The precious woods from the island, the whitened tree trunks washed in by the sea, the shells, the fossilized corals and exposed wood-work have created an overall effect that we consider to be of exceptional beauty. We would like to thank Donnelly Design Studio for their outstanding work, of which we are extremely proud.

‘‘Client reserves the right of privacy | Project: Private Residence in Blue Ridge, GA .

Joe designed a real fortress for me, which today seems as if it has always existed on the mountain side. The purity of the defensive shapes and the incredible chromatic integration with the environment represents a creative success as well as a possible challenge to anyone who wishes to confine contemporary man in smaller spaces. I thank Joe for having understood my willingness to build something extraordinary in a place so special for me.

‘‘Carol P. | Project: Trinity Columbarium in Lilburn, GA .

Joe designed a beautiful Columbarium and memorial garden for our Church. Thanks so much you did a great job, we love it!
