Report
When I think of architecture I think of the Sater Designs. I'm in my early 20's from Atlanta Ga and I design homes myself. My dream are to design and build luxury homes and I look up to the Sater Design Group in homes to better myself. I would love to meet Dan and learn more than what I don't know yet. Everyday is a learning experience.
