What others say about us

“We had to renovate an older building, and Barnett made it stand out. He used his attention to detail in creating new architectural details and upgrading fixtures with creative use of lighting while keeping costs to a minimum. Barnett was a pleasure to work with. He listened to our team’s comments and suggestions and was able to make adjustments quickly. I would highly recommend Barnett and his team.”

Deborah Butler, President | Butler Enterprises

I had the opportunity to purchase a very large and unique building here in Alachua County. The building started its life as a military armory in the 1950s, and the challenge for my company was updating it while honoring its rich history. We interviewed several local architecture firms and only one stood out: Monarch Design Group. I met with the partners who truly understood what I was trying to accomplish. In a very short period of time, we had a design that updated the building without sacrificing any history...the design truly spoke to us! Updating a 70-year-old building wasn't easy but members of Monarch were there every step of the way...from public meetings to interviewing contractors! The end result is simply stunning and so in the Monarch team!
