Client Testimonials

“We were looking for a Home we could customize to suit our needs, as nothing on the market had exactly what we wanted. We met Mindi and Phin during this process and they went above and beyond even before we had contracted with them. They came to view several homes with us to help us decide on the property that could be everything we needed. I've never heard of any architectural firm being willing to do this, in fact no one was. That was only one of the reasons we selected them, they are so easy to work with! They listened to us and created a home that is not only beautiful but functional for us. Both principals of the business are professional, skilled in design, architectural integrity, knowledgeable about the building market, various contractors and assisting us to manage the process from start to finish. In the end they designed an amazing custom home, did it within our budget and have continued to be available within moments notice to assist where needed!. I would urge anyone seeking architectural or design services to use MPG, they are in a class of their own. We are underway with our building and will repost photos when complete! Thank you Mindi and Phin!”

“Our house would not be the house it is today without Mindi’s refined eye, gentle guidance and creative vision. We hired her when our house was only a shell, without even a door. Her architectural and design skills were invaluable as she guided us through paint colors, stair railings, lighting fixtures, door hardware, flooring choices, carpets, and window coverings to name a just a few. We lived in another town, and she was always willing to be at the new house to meet whatever contractor was there that day and make sure that the project was on track and meeting our design goals. She helped us transform dated yet special items from our previous homes in ways that allowed them to fit naturally into our new home. Artwork got new frames, benches and tables got new finishes and furniture got new fabrics. At the end of our project, we had a serene and beautiful home that reflected the things our family cared most about. Every person who enters comments on our home’s peaceful yet practical vibe. Throughout the months that we worked with Mindi we learned so much. She clearly and without pretension explained our options and guided us through what she thought would work best and why. We’ve lived in the house for less than a year and each day as I walk through the house I have a smile on my face thanks to Mindi.”

“We had just started exploring the idea of hiring an architect for a kitchen/great room renovation project. When my wife Erica came across the MPG website she called me over to her computer screen and said "Look at this!" We were both blown away by the designs we saw - elegant, rustic, stylish, eye-popping. Kind of, well, perfect. Erica called and left a voicemail that went something like, "We probably can't afford you but we'd love to chat." The next day we got a call back from Mindi and Phin, who were really concerned that we considered them "out of our league." They assured us that MPG works within a broad range of budgets and project sizes. We were excited. Mindi and Phin came out to meet us and take measurements. They were really nice and had this great energy. We could feel how much they love their work. Then came the architectural expectations, while - true to their word - within our budget. Awesome, right?! So we hired them to project manage our entire reno, and advise/coordinate on everything from design to materials to colors to appliances to contractors. This is our first big renovation project and they have helped educate us about the process and kept us up to speed on all the details. Every step of the way, they have been super responsive and right on target with their suggestions. All of our interactions with MPG have been incredibly positive and professional, and we can't wait to work with them more in the future!”

"MPG Home Design brought design sensibility to our home renovation. It really helps to get professional guidance quickly and without the high cost of a traditional firm. We've used her on multiple projects with spectacular results. Thank you Mindi for making our home beautiful."
- Rich Hermann, Newbury, MA

"Mindi is very organized with great construction management skills. We would not have completed the project on time without her. She's detail oriented with punch lists and spreadsheets to keep track of all the moving parts. And she has fun with her projects... she genuinely gets excited about problem solving. To top it off, she finds great deals for interior pieces and knows all the vintage stores that match the style of the client and save them money. It's great to have such a good sense of style and design along with detail contractor management all in one person."
- Trent & Stratton Lloyd, Newburyport, MA

“Mindi has a wonderful eye for design and color and works hard to ensure her customers are happy with the results. Highly recommend!”
