“I can't say enough good things about Brechbuhler Architects. The plans are incredibly accurate, the renderings are complete, and they are hands on every step of the way. Each drawing is unique to the individual. You don't see any copy and pasting from one plan to another, which causes inaccuracies in the project. Not to mention they're just a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Brechbuhler for any and all projects.”

“We worked with Locati Architects and Design from start to finish on a significant, top to bottom, home remodel on Lake Couer d'Alene in Northern Idaho which was completed in 2011. The Locati team helped us transform a random and poorly designed & constructed 8000 SqFt "Northwest Contemporary" to an absolutely phenomenal 11,000 SqFt world class "rustic elegance" show piece. The project was extremely challenging and we had not done proper due diligence in selecting a contractor. Locati Architects went above and beyond in every way imaginable to make the project a phenomenal success. Our home is as gorgeous as any Locati home and every single member of the Locati Architecture & Design Team were top notch professionals in knowledge, demeanor and a shared desire to make our home as amazing as possible-in lieu of challenges that could easily sabotage most construction projects-especially one of this caliber. We cannot thank Locati Architects enough for their high levels of professionalism. No one could set the standard of excellence higher than they do. Every interaction from Amanda in design to Dave & Boone in project management and Kyle as lead architect went above and beyond our already high expectations in every way. Building a home can be extremely stressful and our poor choice of a contractor tested us in every way. Locati Architects exemplified maximum patience while maintaining hope and focus to bring an incredible project through the finish line. In our experience and opinion, the only thing superior to the world class Locati home designs are their people. After dealing with them on such a significant undertaking, I can hardly imagine finding another architect that would offer that down home Montana warmth with the highest levels of commitment and drive for excellence and perfection. Thanks so much for such a great experience and phenomenal home. We consider you friends for a lifetime. Kevin Wolter”

“I think there are three things that make Rob adn his firm unique. First, they work very hard at the beginning of the process to truly understand your vision for the project and to translate that into concepts and drawings. Once that is agreed to, he becomes the "defender" of that vision throughout the entire process. Second, they do very detailed drawings, much more than most other architects according to the builders we spoke with. This ensures that we get exactly what we want and there are no surprises. As an example, all of the cabinets are explicitly drawn out with moldings etc. Finally, Rob and his team act very much like a general contractor in that they interact with the builder, landscape arcihitect, interior designer pool contractor etc. This takes a lot of pressure off of us to make sure we get what we want. We interviewed several other architects and generally found that once the permit drawings were completed, they were done with the project. With Rob, he stays involved until the day you move into the house. He and his team are very professional and fully understand the concept of what you want create the end result is Exactly what you want. Rob is now working on a second home for us in South Carolina in low country. The first was in New Hampshire on a lake.”
