As a contractor who works in high-end residential remodeling, we value design partners who are not only talented, but practical, responsive, and deeply engaged throughout the entire process. Hart Wright Architecture consistently delivers on all of those fronts.
We’ve collaborated with Eliza and Stuart on complex, custom home remodels in San Francisco—projects with tight site conditions, high client expectations, and lots of moving parts. Their drawings are exceptionally well done—clear, buildable, and thought through—and our field team regularly comments on the difference that makes during construction.
What we appreciate most is their presence and leadership. They don’t disappear after design; they stay involved through pricing, scope coordination, and build-out. They advocate for their clients while also understanding how to keep a project moving forward on-site, which is a rare and valuable balance. In a city as complicated as San Francisco, that level of coordination and professionalism makes a real difference.
Hart Wright is a trusted partner, and we’re always glad when they’re on the team.
Building and maintaing a great relationship with Hart Wright Architects has been a truly amazing experience over the years.

As a contractor who values quality work and partnership, I always look forward to my next project with Hart Wright. During any construction project, the key to success is a strong and balanced relationship between the owner, the architect and the contractor. When we were building a multi-year, multi-million dollar remodel with all of the usual challenges, I knew I could always rely on Hart Wright Architecture to be an outstanding partner to both my construction team and the clients.
Eliza and Stuart are engaged architects - they are principals who are directly involved with their projects. There are no layers of staff between them and the project. They were always available at crucial times to come to the job site and work directly with the construction team. They believe in their work. They are problem solvers and decision makers. They guide projects with a steady hand.
I wholeheartedly recommend Hart Wright to anyone looking for a top-notch architect for their next project.
As building contractors, our working relationships with architects are critical to the success of our projects. Hart Wright Architects understands this. They demonstrates it with thoughtful, timely communication and decision making. This helps us to keep or projects moving forward which makes a our clients happy. They also make beautiful, cost effective designs which are ultimately what our clients are looking for. We recommend Hart Wright Architects without reservation.
