Boone Low Ratliff combines amazing creativity and a thorough knowledge of design with a practical understanding of how people actually live in a house. Jacquie was a dream to work with, her brilliant ideas, knowledge of green building, and use of light and space created a home that is not only beautiful, but also incredibly comfortable to be in. We absolutely love our home!

Amazing to work with – from concept to completion! Jacquie Low and her staff were outstanding! We love our new home and the green components that Boone Low Ratliff Architects incorporated into the design. We also thank you for monitoring our project costs and keeping on budget. Thank you, Boone Low Ratliff!

We love the house! We are very happy with it. We are continuously amazed by the level of craft and carefulness you all put into your work. It really shows and is a very rare thing to find these days. We are sure glad we found you all! Thank you so very much,
– Fico and Kristen

Just wanted to send you a note to tell you how much we still love our house and also to tell you that people are still stopping by and showering us with compliments. Thanks again for all you did to make this work out so well.

This past year has been HEAVEN!!!! The building is a joy to work in, a magnet for partners and is really transforming our work. My favorite statistic this year is that volunteers who work out of the North County Center spent 20% more time volunteering, on average, than the year before! They don’t want to go home! Thank you Jackie! I tell everyone you are a genius!
– Karen Delaney (Executive Director, Live Oak Resource Center)

The house is really incredible…. you did such a great job on the design and the whole thing has been really fun! Joel (the contractor) is doing a great job and I am very happy we went with him. I hope that you two continue to work together in the future. Every day more and more things happen and we obviously can’t wait to move in.
Thanks again for all you have done (you should be proud!!)

Dear Jacquie,
Chris and I are settled into our new home and Jess and Pete and the kids are in theirs. It’s our very own compound. We are so grateful for your brilliance as an architect and every day I am awed by this beautiful space we now live in. Thank you so very much for truly making our dreams a reality. We will continue to think of you as we appreciate this wonderful space we call home.

House is being framed. Paul, K.T., Clemente and the crew are doing an amazing job, and it’s starting to look really fantastic! Thank you so much for all the effort and thought you put into it. It is going to be a spectacular space.Thanks again,

Dear Jacquie,
Our family had the best experience imaginable with this firm. We could not have been more pleased with our architect, Monica Ratliff. We initially chose her as architect for our remodel because we were impressed by two of her projects in the Seabright area of Santa Cruz where we live. However, beyond giving us a great design for our extensive remodel, she was able to work beautifully with our opinionated family, as well as with the contractor and city agencies. She helped us navigate challenging situations with neighbors and government agencies with great professionalism and consideration. She brought respect for the character of the neighborhood to her design, and yet she managed to give us literally every detail of what we personally wanted in our house, without compromising the quality of the design. She consistently saved us on the cost of our project with her knowledge of rules and regulations, her concern for energy efficiency, and her dedication to quality all around for a reasonable price. Not only was Monica top notch, but any contact we had with anyone else at Boone Low Ratliff left us impressed by their competent and caring professionalism.
– Ann Duren

Dear Jacquie,
“We got our final from the City! If you want to come by and celebrate, say hello, visit your Beautiful Baby you midwifed in our backyard, let us know. We would love to show you and thank you for your vision manifested… (the windows upstairs are perfect and let in so much light!)”
