They created a home that was beyond our expectations! Started out with wanting a nook to read and enjoy the view… got that and more! Lance is amazing and has an amazing team with Rohs being patient as we changed things (we appreciate your insight and patience) and Sarah our interior designer who guided us in creating our vision board and color palette ( we appreciate your eye for detail). His team behind the scenes also are professional and gifted. Thank you to you all for walking this journey with us and creating us our gorgeous home > ! **★★★★★ — kingedward, Feb. 2026** > I am a retired Architect and General contractor in Florida and had a family project I needed to oversee in Denver, Colorado. I researched firm and found F9 with a little luck. WOW, F9 is the bomb - this is the best Architectural firm I have ever worked with. They are honest, intelligent, caring, professional and timely. They should receive 10 Stars as 5 is not enough. I cannot give them a higher level of recommendation. Simply the Best **★★★★★ — Craig Hall, Nov. 2025** > Lance and his team have done a great job > We have been pleased with their designs, ideas and service. > My wife and I will be using them again for future projects. **★★★★★ — Symmetry Builders Inc, Nov. 2025** > At Symmetry, we always pride ourselves on building strong partnerships with our clients and architects; but working with Alex Gore, Principal, and Alex Gresh, architect, at F9 Productions has taken collaboration to a whole new level. We truly value the collaborative teamwork approach with you! > > From the very first schematic design for this unique hybrid project, combining a concrete tilt-up warehouse with a steel-structured office, F9 delivered design options with short lead times. This allowed Symmetry's preconstruction department, fueled by combined expertise, to present selection options to the ownership group with a quick turnaround. Alex and Alex consistently provided clear communication and embraced a collaborative spirit throughout the preconstruction process. This built trust within our teams, allowing us to move seamlessly toward the tilt-up construction phase. We're excited to see this project come to life and continue our successful partnership with F9 Productions. **★★★★★ — Paul Duchsherer, Nov. 2025** > Excellent company to work with. Alex, Lance and their team are professional, hard working, task and deadline oriented people. If you’re looking for high quality design and construction, I would highly recommend you give them a try. **★★★★★ — ronaldhomeowner, Nov. 2025** > I cannot possibly write a more praiseful review than I am for F9 Productions. They are an absolute treasure in Longmont. It is a team of some of the best architects and design professionals anywhere, and their dedication to their clients is unmatched. > > After an incredible design they put together, we ran into some building challenges and F9 stepped in and resolved everything effortlessly and professionally. They stepped up where other architects may have backed away and left the challenges for the builder to resolve. They immediately took on the challenge and came up with brilliant solutions. > > A special shout out to Alex Gore and Jason Buss whose architectural talents are unmatched and who time and time again assisted us in getting the design we wanted, getting all the approvals, and solving building challenges on the spot. > > If you need an architect, you would be crazy to use anyone else in the Boulder/Denver metropolitan area. I cannot recommend them highly enough. **★★★★★ — cjwarren2002, Oct. 2025** > The is the second time I've used F9 and I'm just as impressed this time as I was last time. I had an urgent pillar issue develop suddenly and contacted F9. Luckily for me, somehow Lance and company made time in their busy schedule and addressed my problem right away. The project was finished quickly with no issues. I can't recommend F9 highly enough - I will definitely use them for my projects in the future. Thank you, Lance. **★★★★★ — David Mitchell, Oct. 2025** > F9 Productions and their staff are a delight to work with. I have teamed up with them for over 12 years as a structural engineering consultant and they are my favorite architectural firm. The drawings are well done, the designs are creative and the projects get done on time. Highly recommended. **★★★★★ — Donna Alps, Oct. 2025** > Wonderful company and wonderful staff! We have worked with F9 for years and would highly recommend them. You can expect a smooth project every time due to their experience and knowledge. **★★★★★ — John Schenne, Oct. 2025** > I really appreciate the awesome work, attention to detail, great customer service and responsiveness by both Lance and Rohs. These guys are both outstanding! **★★★★★ — Robert Villani, Oct. 2025** > We wanted to do a major remodel of a recently purchased home in the foothills above Boulder Colorado. We interviewed several contractors, designers and architects but settled on F9 productions and we couldn’t be happier. > > Lance Cayko and his team are professional, talented, responsive, and fun to work with.
