"Having worked with Cali Architects on the renovation of a 3-unit residence, Albert Hezghiayan showed an exceptional ability to work through the complexities of a multi-phased project. The team at Cali Architects works in a collaborative manner and is proactive in presenting solutions within the spirit of a project's overall design intent.

Manager

Andrea Iwon

I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents. I should be incapable of drawing a single stroke at the present moment; and yet I feel that I never was a greater artist than now.

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the bliss of souls like mine.
