"Daryl Stanton has been used by us in designing our new home. We valued her knowledge of, and dedication to, principles of minimal damage to natural resources, use of natural, non-toxic materials, and modesty in design. She quickly understood our needs and was flexible in her provision of services, adapting her input to our wish to play a role in designing too. She provided multiple options for us in addressing design problems. Daryl was invariably a pleasure to work with. We would not hesitate to recommend her services to others."
