Exceeding Expectations
I cannot say enough good things about Contextus Architecture and Design and their incredible team! The results speak for themselves, especially in the old vs. new kitchen. We hired them for a complete renovation of a historic Victorian 3-story townhouse, and they exceeded our expectations in every way.
Maximizing Space
Contextus maximized every inch of our home, ensuring that each nook and cranny served a purpose. They skillfully preserved the historic external structures, allowing us to avoid a historical review and audit, which was incredibly important. One of the most impressive changes was moving the kitchen from the back of the house to the center, creating a seamless flow from the living room to the kitchen, dining room, and out to the patio. This transformation has made entertaining a joy.
Personalized Design
From the start, Contextus listened carefully to our concerns and asked in-depth questions about our daily activities to design a space that truly fits our lifestyle. They also incorporated personal elements into the design, drawing inspiration from our beloved travels, art, and even our fur baby dog. They created mood boards and color layouts with various options to capture the atmosphere we envisioned.
Attention to Detail
Their attention to detail was remarkable, helping us select every fixture, door handle, and hinge to ensure a clean and modern look that remains timeless. The team at Contextus was not satisfied until we were completely happy, and even then, their commitment to perfection went far above and beyond the requirements.
Focus and Avoiding Unnecessary Changes
Contextus kept the renovation as simple as possible and ensured we avoided unnecessary demolition or build-outs. This approach kept our project focused and helped manage any potential cost overruns with our contractor.
Gratitude and Fair Pricing
We are deeply grateful for their dedication and the extremely fair pricing they offered. We definitely think that we got the better end of the deal (THANK YOU!!)
Thank you, Contextus, for turning our house into a true home!“

In terms of the missing suitcase, there was a misunderstanding on my part, so they will be returning the suitcase. They will also file a claim so that my chair can be replaced. In light of their prompt response, I am updating my review to give them 5 stars. We all make mistakes (clearly I did in my initial review), and it is refreshing to see a company which takes these issues seriously and handles everything courteously and professionally. The move itself was professionally organized and completed, and I was satisfied by the speed of the packing and delivery. Given the company's response to my issues, I would now recommend them highly and will utilize again in the future. Original review for reference: I paid for 3 movers and a flat rate for all day move from a 1-bedroom to a 2-bedroom ($2700 flat rate and I tipped $600). This price is reasonable, but my review is about how they broke my Eames lounge chair ($6300) and did not cover via insurance (they only cover $1 per pound per item). They also stole my Rimowa luggage - I told them to put it in the front closet, but then noticed 2 days after the move that my front closet did not have my luggage, only leftover packing supplies.“
“JoSo Studio reimagined my kitchen and I couldn’t be happier with the result! Joe envisioned a complete redesign of the room that neither myself (or any other contractor) had considered that made the most use of the existing space, while making it more user friendly. I now have an open concept kitchen, with two islands and much more storage, and it feels like the space has tripled in size. Joe put so much thought into how my family would use the room when developing his design, and his input was invaluable throughout this process. He even connected me to the contractor who remodeled the room, and checked in with me as construction took place. I highly recommend JoSo Studio for all your redesign needs!“
