"In modernizing historic houses, the Deavers are attentive to how architecture can strengthen human and neighborhood connections...Not only does the house relate to the vibrant streetscape, but the rear addition provides a visual link to Austin's urban forest."
-Cheryl Webber
"Nick's daughter, Jes Deaver, AIA, has brought her own sensibilities to the firm, honed by her work with a West Coast architecture firm, but even more so by her background as a filmmaker and writer. Her perspective has sharpened the firm's dedication to the process of custom design and construction, as experienced by the clients. Nick calls it, 'an architectural discovery mission.'"
-S. Claire Conroy
"Meaningfulness is a recurrent theme in the Deavers' discussion of architecture. It goes beyond individual design to the neighborhood, community and city."
-Laurel Delp
