 “Martin’s overall design and attention to detail with the bronze windows and doors, resulted in 40 Ocean Course Drive looking  dynamite.  It is one of the crown jewels on Kiawah Island.”

Roland Gahafer – All About Windows – Charleston, SC



“We worked with Martin on building our dream home in Kiawah Island. The style we wanted was very different from anything we had seen, sort of Mediterranean, but also Santa Barbara, and a little historic, but really cool and new. As you can imagine, what we were asking for wasn’t easy. And everything need to be custom, the cabinets, the fireplaces, all of it. We had a vision in our heads and still do not really understand how Martin translated that into drawings, but he did. His design was gorgeous, but more than that, he knew we wanted to maximize every inch so we could have guests. He designed an 8 bed bunk room that looks like a ship, complete with real portholes. Then when the kids said they wanted slides from the top bunks, he made that happen too. Martin was a joy to work with. He listened carefully and really understood what we were dreaming of. He was a calm force during the chaos that can be construction. We also had a fabulous builder and finished the house on time. We have spent four summers in our home and have yet to find one single thing we wished we had done differently. We love our house more than we even imagined we might, it would not have been possible without the talent of Martin Cizler.”

“Martin, It has been a while since we finished the 297 Tom Watson Lane project together. Yet, to this day, the entire family loves their home! Working with you was a delight. The design and construction details were complex. You were there at every turn to explain your intent and to create a smooth building path that created a “one of a kind ” home. You were flexible and open to suggestions from both me and your client. I hope you prosper in your own business and continue to design homes that excite your clients.”

Warm regards, Steve Koenig – Koenig Construction 


“Martin has my endorsement as an outstanding Architect. My company has been involved in hundreds of construction projects over the past 40 years and we have worked with many highly regarded Architects.   I have had the pleasure of working with Martin on several projects and in all instances, Martin has been incredibly responsive when it comes to providing detailed drawings and information to support the project.  Martin has the depth of knowledge and experience to lead a project from pre-construction planning through to completion. From a builder’s perspective, our success can often rely on the Architect’s support & collaborative involvement.  Under Martin’s lead, everyone is motivated to put their best effort forward for the common goal of making the project a success. In a crowded field, only a small group of architectural firms stand out in my opinion… I consider Martin Cizler Architect to be one of the best.”
