My fiancé and I had an exceptionally positive experience working with Maryam Tabrizchi as our architect for a custom home build project, completed roughly one year ago. She listened attentively and patiently to our ideas, and then seamlessly incorporated our list of ‘must haves’ when presenting us with various design options during the early planning stages of this process. Maryam readily offered suggestions for improving upon our home’s design once we had a rough draft outlined, and it meant a great deal to us that she obviously was just as passionate about this project as we were. My fiancé and I had never worked with an architect before and were initially feeling somewhat intimidated by all the decisions we would have to be making in the course of this major undertaking. Maryam proved to be extremely adept at helping us to envision and design our ‘dream home’—one that truly incorporates our aesthetic preferences and meets our current and future needs. We are so grateful to her for all that she contributed towards our home’s beautiful end result!

My husband and I hired Elie Ben Architecture to redesign the entrance floor of our home including kitchen, living and dining room, and patio, and build a second floor including the master suite with a balcony, office, and lounging area. Maryam was great to work with, she is knowledgeable, professional, and organized. She embraced our preferences, transform our requirements and wish list, and worked with us to accomplish our goal. She worked closely with engineers and our contractor to answer questions, resolve issues and to ensure the plan was properly executed.
We recommend Elie Ben Architecture to others so they can benefit from Maryam’s professionalism and great design.

Maryam and the Elie Ben team were an absolute joy to work with. We did an extremely extensive renovation of a 1950's Mid-Century Modern Home and Maryam was our architect. Our goal was to preserve the charm of a 1950s home while reconfiguring the layout to suit the needs of a young family in 2023. Maryam achieved the perfect balance in preserving the aesthetic we wanted while allowing for us to add all the spaces we wanted - a gourmet kitchen, a large dining area, a beautiful master suite, an addition for a garage, and much more. Can't thank her enough for all of her hard work and creative contributions to our home.

Our experience working with Elie Ben Architecture was superb. Maryam Tabrizchi is a world class architect. Her design style is different than any others that we had seen and that's why we worked with her in the first place. She is kind and pleasant to work with and knows what she is doing. Always professional, friendly and responsive to all of our requests.

She knows when to talk the client out of a ridiculous idea but at the same time gave us the free rein to custom design the home of our dreams. This collaborative relationship made the entire experience even better. We felt fully involved in the entire design process rather than being forced to do things a certain way.

Post design, she was available to us the throughout the entire construction process to provide any advice or guidance on issues that came up. We are thrilled with the home she designed for us and could not be happier working with her. I would recommend anyone to her without any hesitation.

If we do ever build another custom home it will be designed by Elie Ben Architecture.

We first met Maryam with Elie Ben Architecture, LLC. when she and her family were relocating to Bethesda, MD from Florida. As a Custom Home Builder in Montgomery County Maryland we have worked with many local architects, so the prospect of working with someone with a fresh prospective was exciting. We found Maryam's vision for the modern home design fresh yet practical and functional while taking advantage of current construction methods and materials to produce a timeless and cost-effective home. While also being her own client Maryam’s approach to the interior finishes and the selection process was intuitive and seamless. Our experience with Maryam as a client, architect, and designer was so delightful that we have since recommended her firm to our potential clients that are looking for a Modern Home Design. Welcome to the Team Elie Ben Architecture, LLC.
