**★★★★★ — chelle\_schneider, Dec. 2015**

> We had recently purchased a lot and worked with KJ to design a home new home to build on it. KJ did a great job! He captured all of our ideas in his design, was flexible,  and was very pleasant to work with.

**★★★★★ — Mason Joiner Homes LLC, Dec. 2015**

> Royal Oaks Design provides my clients with high quality residential architectural design services. I feel KJ's experience and creativity sets him apart from most home designers. One of his many talents is his ability to relate to his clients...delivering beautiful, architecturally correct home plans that reflect the personal needs and wants of the client.

**★★★★★ — User, Nov. 2014**

> Kootenia has hired Royal Oaks Design over the years with great success. KJ has great ideas for luxury homes but best of all he can work with the clients and design what they are looking for not just what he likes. I would recommend Royal Oaks Design for your next luxury home design.

**★★★★★ — Vanessa DeBruin, Sept. 2014**

> Kieran was wonderful to work with and took time to listen and understand what we would like for a new home design that would fit our family's lifestyle.  He is exceptionally creative and ensured he created the style of home we were looking for.  He combined our suggestions with his expertise to produce the home design of our dreams.

**★★★★★ — Olde South Design Studios, July 2014**

> Kieran's work with Royal Oak Design has always been exceptional.  His attention to detail is without compare and the designs he develops are architecturally and artistically beautiful.  Truly a master within the field.

**★★★★★ — Mark D. Williams Custom Homes, Inc., March 2014**

> I have personally used Kj and Royal Oaks Design on many of my most successful home projects.  Kj offers great feedback while meeting both the clients needs and mine as the builder.  The most important tool to me, is that Kj LISTENS to the client. This seems obvious but when the drafts come back and you see the clients eyes light up as if to say " That's IT!!".
> Kj is very responsive in communication and his turn around on projects keep us on time and on budget. Kj is one of my "go to guys" when I need a thoughtful, intelligent and classy design.

**★★★★★ — Michels Homes, Feb. 2013**

> We have had the opportunity to work with KJ on a couple projects.  KJ's creative design and rational approach to each project is shown not only in the complete prints, but in the final result of the homes we have worked together on.  We look forward to working with KJ going forward!

**★★★★★ — David Frosch, Feb. 2013**

> KJ is one of the most creative professionals in the housing industry. He ethics stand alone in this World we have. He has a friendly personality and is able to take your dreams and assemble them on paper called a blueprint. I highly reccommend KJ for any architectural project you may have now and in the future.

**★★★★★ — Sicora Design/Build, Feb. 2012**

> We have worked with KJ on a number of projects over the years and have always been impressed by the creative and unique architectural approach that he brings to each project.  In a business that is focussed on individual design solutions, there isn't anyone that I trust more than KJ to bring unique ideas to help meet our client's needs.
