Michael Portman,
Co-Founder Birds Barbershop
"We’ve built multiple barber shops with m(ødm) studio and already have plans to do more. The team never puts form over function, yet the result always pushes the design envelope. While other architects can have singular vision, they take a refreshingly collaborative approach with us, our builders and the local artists we bring into the buildout process.”
Jeremy Smith, Founder, Citadel Development
"I have worked on numerous projects with Mark and his team, and I can confidently say that they are always very easy and engaging to work with. I always felt like I was heard and my vision was intentionally articulated in the final design. And the most important part of all...We built some impactful and remarkable projects together that will stand the test of time.”
Venkat Mallya, Avichi Holdings
"After working with multiple architects, we finally came across Mark Odom Studio -- a group of like minded professionals who have provided quality service beyond our expectations. Mark Odom is a great leader and has assembled a wonderful team. We are very happy with the creativity Mark Odom Studio has used in all design solutions, especially given our very complex project. We certainly feel we have found a long term partner in Mark Odom Studio.”
Caroline Ellis Roche,

“I am happy to testify to Mark and Braulio’s ability to problem-solve collaboratively. Most of my experience with the firm has been in the last couple months working on The Elliott [at Pecan District—large mixed use development in Pflugerville, TX]. We have had some challenges to overcome and the team has been responsive and helpful to keep the project on track.”
Mark Padilla,

Meredith Spears, Co-Owner BKCW
“Mark and his team were a pleasure to work with on our new office. From the start of our project, Mark had an incredible vision that he was able to bring to life through creativity, problem solving and his clear love of architecture. I would highly recommend the Odom team to anyone working on restoring an older building in Austin.”
Nathan Vargo,

“I live by the idea that people show their true selves when under pressure, and when the going gets tough the folks at Mark Odom Studio roll up their sleeves and get to work on bringing elegant solutions to complex problems. I find the high touch communication is refreshing to find in todays industry, and I'll continue to work with these guys every chance I get.”
Rik Haden,

"I cannot recommend Mark Odom Studio highly enough! Mark and team are not only exceptionally sensitive and creative architectural designers but they routinely bring excellent leadership, communication, and project management skills to their projects. They also exhibit a “can-do” mentality, problem-solving ability and collaborative attitude that tremendously benefit their collaborators as well as their clients.”
Doug Cameron,
ESS Design + Build
“Sophisticated approach, down to earth attitude - just like Austin. That said, I’d rank Mark Odom Studio as one of the top three architecture firms in our burgeoning city, & would have full confidence going into almost any sort of project with them. The two things I love most about their style are their clever color play & mastery of minimalism.”
Shane Hesson,
Endeavor Real Estate Group
"Our working relationship with m(ødm) has been great over the years. I have been fortunate to work with Mark and his team on a variety of different product types (retail, office, multifamily) and enjoyed the experience every time. The development / design / permitting / construction process in Austin can get pretty tricky at times, so having a design team who understands the value of being flexible and is willing to listen is much appreciated and valued.”
Principal,
Woodrow Partners, Austin TX
“Thank you for the excellent work on both of the buildings you designed for us on West 49th Street. The Mark Odom Studio team created a design in both cases which is modern, clean and thoughtful. As a reflection of this, we receive many compliments on the projects. We look forward to working with Mark and his team again soon.”
Irit Benavi
"We had decided to undergo an extensive remodel of our home and used Mark Odom Studio to guide us with both the design and build parts of the project. His team was very professional and had great communication skills which was critical in the build part of the project. When we had tricky issues to deal with they always came up with solutions and they were 100% committed to getting quality work from the trades onsite. It paid off—we now enjoy our beautifully remodeled home daily.”
David Morin,
MNO Partners
"The communication, professionalism, and creativity of the Mark Odom Studio team leads to a design that can only be described as Authentic."
Jessica Tranchina,
Co-Owner Generator Athlete Lab
"To say we chose the best architecture firm in town is an understatement. We chose the best architecture firm in the world. When you visit Generator Athlete Lab pay attention to the small details, overall design and smart layout. Mark Odom Studio and his team including Braulio Hurtado worked tirelessly on our wellness and fitness studio to ensure it was built to perfection. From the barn doors to enclose our small group training room to the meticulous finish-out in the impeccable wet room, no detail was missed. Designing our concept inside this 1954 historic Seaholm Power Plant building was no easy task but Mark and his team never gave up. In fact they were always positive, encouraging and joyful.”
