Client Experiences

  • “Jo is an EXPERT in both design, and historic renovation to create a house that works with a modern flow and respects the historic nature of the setting and neighboring community if one is dealing with historic boards. She has great vision and knows how to utilize all possible space to allow for best use of light, air and traffic flow.”

  • "I had the pleasure of building two new homes with Jo Machinist in the past few years. The project called for 2 homes on a horse farm, one for the horse trainer and one for the caretaker of the property. The final result fully upgraded the look of the property. I am very happy with the finished product and highly recommend working with her; she not only provides the technical and architectural part of the project, she takes design and functionality into consideration."

  • "Jo has amazing taste and knew exactly what to do she worked with me on how to capture the sun rise and set, how to frame an iconic tree and bring the Hudson River and the bridge into each room. Jo always told me she would make my home my dream and together we did. I feel like I live in a SPA everyone who visits wants to move in. It was more than jus the house it was the entire property she transformed."
