Testimonials
“SVA has made their way into the heart of Redondo Beach. They have established a name and reputation for their exceptional work, beyond the South Bay community. SVA has exceeded our learning community’s expectations and have made our schools a destination for education. I am confident that no other organization could have reignited a culture of pride and honor in schools as they have.”

“We have been working with SVA Architects since 2012 on several Design Build and Lease Lease-Back projects throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. It’s my honest belief that they are one of the best Architects in the Bay Area and we take every opportunity to team with them…we were highly impressed with their attention to detail and quick solutions to unforeseen field conditions which kept the project on track for its slated completion deadline.”

“I have had the opportunity to work with a number of the SVA team members on two different projects and in both cases, they were excellent partners delivering solid design supported by even more solid documents. They are attentive to their customer, understand the uniqueness of the student housing product and the budget constraints all University built facilities face which is critical to a successful outcome.”

“Having personally worked with Bob Simons, I have found him and his staff to be cooperative, responsive, and comprehensive in their work. During the design and construction phase of each project, his staff has been active members of the project team. I have appreciated their ability to help guide the project’s programming and construction, and to provide quick, sound solutions to the builder and to make recommendations to the District that have saved precious dollars without sacrificing quality.”
