“My wife and I had been planning for some time to build. Our hesitation was finding an architect who would embrace our vision. Our aim was a traditional structure to complement our reconstructed 19th century barn. Charles listened carefully, provided option sketches and useful advice, all very much with our vision in mind. We could not be more pleased with the final plans and could not recommend Charles more highly.”

“My wife and I were lucky to have captured the time and attention of Charles just as our family was expanding and we needed to adapt our townhouse to accommodate children.  Charles was able to adapt our house and make it both more functional and more beautiful.  The changes made perfect sense and enhanced the livability of our Bangkok, Thailand home.  The home later sold at a premium to the houses around it.”

“I hired Charles to execute a re-design of a large portion of my front facade at a house I own outside of New York City.  I was impressed throughout the entire process.  From the initial meeting through the design, and then oversight of construction, Charles was easy to work with and professional.  I found his design to match well with my intentions for the facade improvements.  He was able to masterfully bring to life the concepts I described to him!  The designs were highly detailed as well. The materials and design suggestions he made were reasonable and clearly described.  He is clearly an expert.  After the design phase, Charles then oversaw the construction and helped to ensure the construction stayed true to what he designed and came in well within our budget.  It looks amazing and is very well executed.  I recommend Charles without reservation to anyone who is seeking a highly competent, collaborative, and expert architect.  I will certainly be using him again!”

"After looking at homes for close to a year, I found an incredibly beautiful raw lot of land with an older home on it. A wooded acre, a year round ocean view, 35 minutes from Wall Street, high atop a hill, it was a hidden gem in need of more than a typical architect could bring to bear. After I purchased it, I contracted Mr. Beck. He spent many hours and days studying the property, its surroundings, the home itself, and the elements of nature. Mr. Beck then designed a beautiful modern neoclassical addition for the home that brought together not just the interior structure, but melded it naturally with the outside as well.  Thank you Mr. Beck."

“I knew Charles as a brother with the former Intercessors of the Lamb community (a Catholic monastery) in Omaha, Nebraska when I was a sister with the community from 2009 to 2011. I know that Charles was in a formation program with the brothers of the community and was involved in intercessory prayer ministry, youth ministry and music ministry. I had the opportunity to work with him in music ministry and he is a very pleasant person. I would recommend Charles for any employment.”
