Surround Yourself with Beautiful

"I want you to know how special this experience is for us. Each of you and your team have collectively created a very special place. We enjoyed exploring and experiencing our lake house with each other and with friends and family. Just know how appreciative I am of your talents!"

"I greatly appreciate your expertise in both design as well as navigating through the planning commission. You and Gavin did a wonderful job. I feel most fortunate to have been able to work with both of you."

"Diana and her team are unparalleled. In a community where architecturally significant homes are the norm. Diana excels in fulfilling the historic vision of the homes she works on while enhancing the structures to meet the homeowners modern needs. She is a delight to work with, as are her associates. Diana has made our historic home comfortable and suitable for life in the 21st century while keeping the integrity of David Adler's design-no easy feat. We are grateful for her counsel and guidance and have enjoyed getting to know her and the members of her firm. We would recommend her without hesitation and with great enthusiasm!"

​​"Thank you for the outstanding service you provided our family. It was a joy to work with you."

"Thank you just doesn't seem enough to say for all that you and your team has done for our family. All of the planning time was worth it and we needed to get through our emotions of the home and location and you helped us through that. Your advice and guidance was truly priceless. We felt comfortable and trusted all of you without any doubts in our minds. We know we made the right decision with working with your team."

"Melichar Architect is a pleasure to work with. On time, on budget and professional attention to detail. Diana’s creative process made the entire project fun and beautiful!"

"We are a Homeowners Association in Lake Forest and needed to replace the cedar roofs on 56 homes. We hired Bob Abell and Melichar Architects to prepare the bid docs, review and assess the competitive bids and perform inspections and draws. Because of their attention to detail and knowledgeable guidance the project came in on budget. We were very pleased."

"Diana Melichar was a personal referral from an architect friend who sits on an historical preservation committee with her. She and her architect Jennifer took a very thorough approach to develop a kitchen design ideal to our needs. Fit all of our wishes into our existing space without tearing out walls. Great eye for traditional, classic design. Creative execution of my office space by integrating it into my pantry with pocket doors so I can operate out of it during the day without doors hanging open and taking up space. Closed doors hide the space when not in use. Would highly recommend Diana and Jennifer to anyone looking for top quality service and design. Melichar also designed our outdoor space of new carport and terrace which we will execute in Spring 2017."

"Lucky for us Melichar Architects were recommended. We called, we met and the outcome was perfect! From concept discussion to a detailed plans, including contractor selection, we were professionally guided in a creative and responsive way. The attention we received was amazing. Thank you Diana, Gavin & Melichar team! You are "Pro"s" who truly understand customer satisfaction. We highly recommend Melichar Architects to all!

"Honorable/ ethical, transparent and great service is how I would sum it up. This is an addition to your beautiful architectural and interior design work!"
