How may I be of service?

I’m delighted to help you get to know Scatterday Architecture. If you are reading this,
it is likely because you are looking for some architectural design assistance.

Let’s cut to the chase. I do house plans, but what is even better is that
I help ensure that you have the right house plan for your property.

I am fully insured and licensed to provide professional architectural design services for residential, commercial, educational, and historic preservation projects. I love designing kitchens and baths, renovations and additions, and can even help with handicap accessible adaptations.

Interested in sustainable design and energy efficient planning? I do that too!

I listen. I create. I collaborate. I follow your priorities.
Your budget. Your timeframe. Your design preferences.
In all that I do, I do it with excellence, at your service.

Have you ever tried writing a paragraph about yourself? A paragraph that wasn’t like every other bio you’ve ever read about someone? I just can’t do it, the ‘usual’ that is.
So here’s what you need to know about me:

I’m a registered architect, a creative thinker, a problem solver,
a designer, a lover of having the right tool for the job.(Have been at it for close
to twenty years.) I’m an aunt, a sister, a daughter, a niece, a friend, a best friend.

I’m a volunteer and a Tennessee Volunteer. I’m a neighbor, a community organizer, a board member.
I’m a reader, a traveler with more places to experience on the horizon. I am a hockey fan,
a hockey player and an even bigger fan of independent thinking, conserving resources,
being active in my community, and giving my time and talent to serve others.
I’m an encourager, a sharer, a concussion overcomer and a non-profit starter.

But above all, I am a person who seeks God’s plan first in my life, fully relying on Him for everything in all ways, thankful for the life He has provided me, even the difficult things. Ask me sometime!

Why am I putting all this out here for you to read? Because if we’re going work together, you need to decide if I’m the right architect for you. The design process is only successful if we’re in it together based on mutual trust. We’ll be spending a lot of time across the table from each other, and as with all things, even in business, it’s about people and relationships. So I thought I’d go first, break the ice, and help you get to know me a little. Looking forward to meeting you. ~Wendy
