Studio M315

Bill Barbour worked for my Architectural firm in 2006-2007. He was a great asset to the company: organized, a good architect & designer, and always pleasant to work with. Unfortunately, the recession took its toll on my company, and regretfully I had to lay Bill off. I recommend Bill Barbour and his company to anyone looking for an inventive architect and designer. I write this in my home office, painted in a wonderful color that Bill chose for me. It still makes me smile!

Bill was great. He helped me with two different design projects. Bill was very professional, did what he said he would do and meet my expectations. He also delivered them on time. I would highly recommend his work. Tim

William Barbour Architect (Now studio M315) turned out to be the perfect company to partner with us on the remodel of our 1955 mid-century home in Plymouth, MI. A new kitchen was a must, the flow of the existing plan was lacking direction and a rarely used addition on the rear was blocking our view of the back yard and forest beyond. Bill was able to rearrange the plan to give us direct access to the addition which made it much more usable as a gathering room with access to the kitchen all while keeping with the mid-century style of the house. This created a better flow through the house and as an unexpected bonus added space to the master bedroom! Our General contractor was also complementary towards the accuracy and clarity of his blueprints. I highly recommend working with Bill and we are keeping him in mind for any future projects we are planning.

Working with Bill Barbour was a terrific experience. He is professional and insightful. He listened to what I wanted and even showed me some ideas that I didn't even know I wanted until I saw them. He worked within my budget and he turned my dreams into reality. I couldn't be happier. I would absolutely recommend working with Mr. Barbour.

My first experience with William Barbour, Architect, was 17 years ago to expand the living space by adding an addition off the back of the house. Being my first house, I was on a tight budget. Mr. Barbour was very budget minded and honest. He did an excellent job, met deadlines and very professional. When I bought my second house and wanted to redesign the kitchen and bath, Mr. Barbour was the only architect I would consider using. His modern and unique vision was exactly what I was looking for. While working on this project, he made suggestions for simple yet affordable updates to other areas of the house to continue the look throughout the house. After the completion of the kitchen and bath, I implemented these simple suggestions, i.e. update lighting, modern yet daring colors on the wall, flooring, space saving ideas, pieces of furniture, etc. The suggestions that Mr. Barbour made were so effective, that when it came time to sell I had well over my asking price. Now on my third house! Mr. Barbour is the ONLY Architect that I will ever use. For this third house, Mr. Barbour is designing a finished basement with theater, bar and recreation area. This project is by-far the most fun that I have had with a home renovation. It's all due to Mr. Barbour's creative, energetic and unique design style. It is like watching a Picasso being painted...Not sure where it's going but you trust the artist to work his masterpiece. My husband is using Mr. Barbour to design the interior of his restaurant. Mr. Barbour knew exactly what my husband wanted-a combination of rustic and modern. Mr. Barbour's attention to detail has created a unique warm and edgy atmosphere to the restaurant. I would recommend Mr. William Barbour to anyone over and over again.

Bill was great to work with on our home remodel in Ann Arbor. He was patient as we were making decisions and brought a great perspective with different ideas that we hadn't considered. We would recommend him highly.
