Bazazi Design

Bazazi Design was responsible for the rehabilitation of our detached garage and it's preparation for a 28 solar panel array roof installation. We sit on an historic and highly visible property and Liz's design and careful consideration of both the functionality and the aesthetic qualities was superb. Her ideas and attention to detail turned an ordinary garage into a beautiful and graceful structure worthy of being alongside of our showpiece Victorian house nearby. To our delight, the solar panels are hardly noticeable as her plans envisioned. Her blueprints were exacting and she made the extra effort to meet with our carpenter to ensure everything was in order. This saved on time, questions and materials in the end and made for an efficient project completed under budget and on time. It was easy to work with Liz from start to finish and we are very highly satisfied with the end result. We recommend Liz as she is a creative, very knowledgeable, experienced, and talented professional.

Liz was our savior when we put our in-law addition on our home. She totally thinks outside the box and is a master of small spaces. Three years later and we still marvel at the functionality, beautiful site lines, interior flow and exterior blend with our existing home.

Thimble Island House / Pot Island / Thimble Islands / Branford / Ct. Ms. Bazazi worked for me as a design architect in 2000 guiding a renovation I was doing on what had been the first small hotel built in the Thimble Islands in 1845. The property was now a 6,300 sq ft family home with 11 bedrooms. The challenge was to maintain the charm and tradition of the building Ms. Bazazi designed a new 2 story kitchen and redid the master bedroom as well as adding a sunrise porch with pergola to the already existing sunset porch - all with connecting decks. She worked up a budget after confirming with the construction manager and listened to my ideas and vision as well as giving me valuable feedback. I was satisfied enough to engage Ms. Bazazi again 6 years later to renovate a cottage on the same property. The challenge was different in that the cottage was 1,500 sq ft. She came up with a very creative design to maintain the charm but balance form and functionality as well as maintain a connection with nature and views of the water. There are 1 master bedroom and two smaller bedrooms. A nautical theme runs throughout the cottage with amazing brightwork an screened in porch. Those living in the islands say the cottage is one of the most beautiful, warm, and inviting in the islands.

Liz Bazazi is a very talented architect. She is currently working on a very complicated addition to our home doubling the square footage and dealing with very complicated roof lines. Her ability to problem solve this job is amazing. She is extremely organized and creative.
