Accolades

Engaging Barley|Pfeiffer to design our retirement home was one of the smartest things we've ever done. The build of our house is far superior to typical construction in our area. More important, though, this house fits us like a glove. Their comprehensive design process incorporated not just our taste, but how we live, from the room flow to the allocation of HVAC components, etc. Living and building four hours from their Austin office was a bit of a challenge, but we coordinated well and they were on site at all critical junctures. The level of detail in the plans and specifications far exceeded what one typically gets, even in a full custom build. This was critical to ensuring the energy efficiency of our home. We've been in the home for two years and continue to be impressed with how little we spend to heat and cool it. We highly recommend the team at Barley|Pfeiffer Architecture.

5+ stars for Barley/Pfeiffer! They turned my 50’s 1,350 sf ranch home into a 1,850 sf custom home that exceeds my expectations more than I could have thought possible. The process started with Alan sketching out ideas on a floor plan of the existing structure and working very creatively with what I wanted versus what was possible and affordable. Within a couple of months we had come up with a working version of the final plan and I had a series of meetings with Alan, Peter, Dillan and the rest of the team discussing all aspects of the renovation in great detail. The end result is an extremely comfortable, gorgeous house built on the more seasoned framing of the house's 50’s lumber and foundation and without sending the demolished house to the landfill. I love living in this house and that’s all thanks to Barley/Pfeiffer. Highly recommended.

Peter Pfeiffer recently spoke to a group of young professionals on Green Building Science. Not only has he been a pioneer in energy efficient building; he continues to inspire a new generation to be better. He is a trusted advisor to many and we are fortunate to have him in Austin.

Collaborating with Alan & Peter from Barley Pfeiffer Architecture was a wonderful experience, where our visions aligned well to create a dream space for our clients!
