As a Realtor who assists both homeowners and builders/developers, I rely heavily on a great architect that can collaborate with myself and my clients. Jacob and Brian at Clements Wimsatt Architects are some of the very best in the business and are top-notch professionals in every way! They make my job easier, and my clients are always extremely happy with their work and with their professionalism. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Working with Clements Wimsatt has been an absolute pleasure. I worked with them on several projects - a modern sunroom addition, two new construction homes, and a 10 unit multi-family building. I have been very satisfied with their overall work on each project and I am exceptionally happy with their attention to detail. The drawings they produce are very thoughtful and intelligible - to customers and contractors alike. I would recommend them to anyone in need of a creative, professional, and experienced architect. Five stars!

Clements Wimsatt Architects have been fantastic partners throughout our home build project in East Nashville. Through conversations and imagery, they helped us define the way we would imagine our home. Building on those ideas and adding his own advice and creative perspective, Brian Clements designed a beautiful modern home that absolutely embodied our dreams! Another differentiator of the Clements Wimsatt Architects firm is their "Construction Administration" phase. Beyond the design itself, Brian shared with us invaluable guidance, contacts and recommendations for selecting contractors, materials, final design details, and more.... They will go above and beyond to ensure the construction process goes well, and the final result is exactly what we had imagined. It is an absolute pleasure working with Brian and Jacob, thank you for helping us build our dream home!
