Great design springs from productive collaboration between vested partners with the development of shared pride in the end product. The free and open exchange of ideas is critical to seeing any design achieve its full potential. Lodestone Design Group was formed with the understanding that an architect s role in any design project should extend far beyond drawing plans. A truly valuable architect will add reason to the cacophony of voices and should provide direction along the design path for participants who may be less experienced navigating the design and construction process. Jeffery Van Sambeek is a licensed architect and head of Lodestone Design Group. Jeff brings the value of more than a decade of experience in architecture, planning, interior design, and construction management to every project he participates in. His work experience includes several hundred unique structures including homes, offices, stores, restaurants, and municipal buildings.
