**★★★★★ — Mark Hackett, April 2018**

> In today's fast paced world their are but a few true craftsman left. Bob is truly one of them. I had a vision of a reproduction of a 19th century barn I wanted to build on my property. It had to look the part on the outside with rough cut board & batten siding and a standing seam metal roof. But the inside had to accommodate four 12' doors down stairs, with a 36' X 48' game room upstairs. Bob's plans were nicer than I could imagine... With a 2nd floor roof peak 26" supported by five huge southern pine trusses over a checker board tile floor.
>  Our family has truly enjoyed and used this space for family reunions, graduations and numerous other social events over the years. Not to mention the daily usage of our children and their friends. Thanks Bob for making our dream a reality!
>  Thanks Bob for helping to put together our

**★★★★★ — Kirt Patterson, April 2018**

> Bob helped us design our dream home several years ago - it's the house featured on his webpage!! We had never built a house, much less designed one, and we were fortunate to have Bob guide us with our new project. Bob is an expert designer who not only helped us efficiently utilize the square footage in our house, but he also made suggestions of his own on enhancements which we welcomed and included in our final plans. Bob is a great guy to work with, and more importantly he's honest and can be trusted to help you come up with some exciting plans for your project!!

Mr. Kirchman's grasp of vision and professional design execution in multi-media is persuasive, stunning, professional.
