Demetriades + Walker is located in the Northwest hills of Connecticut. The work is primarily residential, spirited by an innovative approach to modernism and site integration. A site and client responsive approach is fundamental to all projects. Stylistically, our work embraces innovative modernism, as well as the vernacular tradition; we believe the choreography of light, volume and spatial progression transgresses stylistic labels. We research and select materials for sustainability and for harmony with our architectural objectives, balancing dynamic and contemplative aspects. For over twenty years, our architecture firm has taken an innovative approach to modernism while embracing the land, our clients' needs and the vernacular tradition. The timeless aspects of good design - light, volume, space, and sustainability - are the foundation of our practice.

Working with Elizabeth and Patrick was a pleasant and life changing experience. My husband and I thank them from the bottom of our hearts for helping us to create our dream house. Elizabeth's attentions to details as well as her knowledge of newest materials and design trends exceeded our expectations. The team of contractors she and Patrick recommend was fantastic to work with from start to finish. If I ever need to built a house I would definitely choose Demetriades and Walker.

Elizabeth and Patrick were fabulous to work with - from understanding our needs, aesthetic and budget, translating that into a wonderful concept and plan, soliciting bids from contractors to overseeing the building process to its last detail. While he house came in on budget and within the timeframes that they had said, most importantly, it not only met all our needs, it exceeded our expectations. The thoughtfulness, knowledge and skill that they brought to the project created a house that we marvel at every time we experience it

Elizabeth and Patrick, along with their talented architectural team, were a joy to work with from day one. They listened to our needs and wants and then translated those ideas into our dream modern pond house that seamlessly blends into the forrest environment. They were able to successfully bring a clean and open look to the woods that is both comfortable and functional. We love it! More importantly, they designed so many small and thoughtful details that we continue to discover as we live in the house. From beautiful window placement to awesome fixture and stone choices to the coolest fireplaces, they guided our design journey from day one. We highly recommend working with the Demetriades + Walker team. They are extremely talented, listen, make amazing recommendations, and then bring your vision to life.

Patrick and Elizabeth designed a beautiful building that was completed in a timely manner and on budget. They were true professionals throughout, managing the builder and the myriad construction and design details. Their involvement was reassuring and helpful at every turn. We recommend them highly and would not hesitate to use them on another project.

Elizabeth and Patrick earned our complete confidence during the recent renovation of our vacation home. They understood our desire to modernize and enlarge our modest 1950 mid-century modern lake house while staying true to its relaxed nature and authentic charm. They presented us with a plan that is both functional and fun. Elizabeth is a detail person - nothing escapes her watch. She has experience and expertise in all phases of the construction process and has an excellent design aesthetic. Patrick brings a valuable sense of scale and fit both conceptually and in the field, as well as a tasteful eye regarding details. We enjoyed our consultations with Elizabeth and Patrick. They listened well, asked the right questions, and during the final phases of the project whittled down the choices that we needed to make. They supervised the construction completely and had a good working relationship with the general contractor who clearly respected their thoroughness. They represented us well during the entire process. We would not hesitate to recommend Demetriades and Walker yet hope that they do not become too popular and busy to take on our next project!

D+W are a wonderful team and working with them on our "dream house" was one of the most exciting and fulfilling experiences of my life. They are complete professionals, very detail oriented and on top of all aspects of the project from start to finish. What sets them above others -- and we spent about 6 months interviewing architects before we settled on D+W -- is their creativity and ability to translate our "program" elements into a house more beautiful and suited to our needs than we ever imagined. Their aesthetic sense is impeccable -- especially in their sensitivity to transition spaces, light and volume. We came within our budget but ended up with many elements of higher quality than we expected (e.g., shelving, woodwork). They are wonderful at advising on where costs can be saved without sacrificing quality or functionality. At the same time, they do not allow you to compromise on elements they regard as essential to basic quality (e.g., doors). They also follow all the work closely and do not let the contractor or subs get away with anything less than perfection. (E.g., they insisted some duct work be redone as spec'd in a basement storage room we were leaving unfinished to leave more ceiling room in the event we decided to finish the room.)

I am finishing up a 2 year construction of a new home with the assistance of D+W as architects, project managers and spiritual guides. It has been an extraordinarily positive experience. Elizabeth (Demetriades) and Patrick (Walker) share near perfect skill, imagination, dedication and taste as designer/architects and combine those skills with detailed knowledge of the art and science of construction.

Elizabeth Demetriades and Patrick Walker designed my Painting Studio in Roxbury Conn. in the fall of 2009. They had visited the site following some preliminary conversations on the telephone and upon arriving I had a very good feeling about their level of expertise and their sensitivity to the spatial issues on my hillside property. I liked the way they went about things - they were very good listeners and also quite good at assessing the flow of my property and the relationships between various buildings that dot the site, i.e. : house, guess cottage, free standing barn, in ground pool, etc…… and their considerations about how a New building would interact with those already in place, as well as the awareness of how spaces between all buildings would work with the addition of a new structure. In other words, there was a near musicality to the way they thought, and ultimately the way that they designed the studio. Everything was relational. The results were superb. The final studio design had plenty of natural light, lots of interior free space, and terrific views of my rolling hills and old oak trees. And yet there was enough wall space to allow for paintings to lean and be viewed as one worked on them. In addition the building sits very beautifully on the upper hillside of my property. The rolling hills move right up to the entrance door / sans walkway or stone steps or anything that would break the flow. It almost feels like the structure was dropped into place exactly where it was meant to be. Poetry in Architecture.

D&W were the architects on our house project. Our project was a 1800 sq ft addition as well as extensive renovations to the existing house. The existing kitchen was gutted and redesigned, storage was created throughout the house and the entire multi-level flat roof, which had been the cause of many sleepless nights since we purchased our house 25 yrs ago, was replaced. We interviewed many architectural firms over a two year period. When we met Elizabeth, something clicked. She was enthusiastic about our project and undaunted about our flat roof. She gave us the confidence to proceed with the project. Elizabeth and Patrick were very easy to work with. They understood our fear with undergoing this major project and were reassuring that we would love the final product. They listened to our needs and totally got what we wanted to achieve. It was important to them that my husband and I were both happy. This was not an easy task since my husband and I we not always on the same page. They were very persistent in their designs, and in the end, we got results that satisfied us both. I was very impressed with their design insights. We have lived in this house for 25 years and could not figure how to gain storage. D&W converted a bedroom into a spacious dressing area for my husband and I and relocated the bedroom in an upstairs addition. They designed a mudroom with closets, built-in drawers and a laundry room, which is the envy of all who have seen it. And they did an incredible job making it look like it was part of the original house. D&W over saw the entire project. The weekly site meetings were crucial in putting our minds at ease.. These meetings were involved... not just a quick walk through... most lasted hrs.... and they were always followed by a written report which outlined what was being done, what needed to be done... any problems and suggestions. I can't emphasize how important this was to us. We didn't want any surprises and we wanted it done right. Currently, my husband's family is in the middle of a major construction project and it is turning into a nightmare. There is no communication between the architect, builder and homeowner... no group meetings and too many worries. Another important point i want to make is that D&W were always easy to get in touch with. They always returned phone calls and followed up with e-mails. Even after the construction was completed, if we had questions, wanted opinions... they were available. They also reviewed every contractor's bill that was submitted to us for payment. This was very helpful to us. D&W were on top of things every inch of the way. This project was a huge expense for us..a once in a life time chance to get what we wanted and needed to thoroughly enjoy our house. With D&W, we achieved our goals and will never want for storage again. We felt they had our backs during this whole ordeal and that was comforting during the stress of construction.

This team understands contemporary design and architecture thoroughly with an aesthetic for materials, and style that is impeccable. After one meeting, they had a full understanding of what we wanted in a home. They were able to work around obstacles on the site with creative solutions that made our project more unique and functional than we had imagined. We enjoyed working with them.

We supply windows and doors to the projects Elizabeth and Patrick design. Demetriades + Walker is the epitome of creativity and competence. Their attention to detail before, during and after the project is exceptional. We work with a few architects and they are a favorite of ours.

Elizabeth Demetriades and Patrick Walker are terrific. They listen, they get it, and they are persistent to get something that works. I am demanding in that i will not settle and they stuck with me through out the building process. In addition, their attention to detail is extraordinary. I really feel our home is like a piece of fine jewelry that i get to use everyday. We built our house over ten years ago, and we are still enjoying the joys of living in such a beautiful place.
