**★★★★★ — Rutgers Construction Inc, Sept. 2018**

> We are currently engaged with Forum Phi on two projects. So far, we have been able to collaborate well and they are terrific communicators. Their team is attentive to client needs and provide valuable insight during the building process.

**★★★★★ — Aspen White Star, LLC, Jan. 2018**

> I worked with Gigi on expanding their space to utilize the additional square footage downstairs. We wanted to improve the storage space and the efficiency of the area.  I think we the achieved that with the finished design in the short amount of time that we had to accommodate their project. I would love to work with her again on projects in the future!

## Community Q&A

**Q: What material did you use for the hearth and mantle?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Thanks for your question. These slabs are limestone with chipped edges. Your local stone yard will be able to cut and finish your slabs to size.

**Q: Von welcher Firma sind Sofas und Fauteuils?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Wo kann man sie in Europa bestellen?

A: This was the homeowner's furniture in the "Before" picture. It was all either sold or discarded after the remodel so there is no way to tell the furniture manufacturer, sorry!

**Q: What is the Door height and ceiling height** *(in Photo Questions)*

I would love to  know the door height compared to the ceiling height!
Thanks!

A: Thanks for your question, Alec! These are custom doors ordered to max the height of the window glass and natural light coming into the hall. The hall ceiling height is 9'-0" with a 9'-8" soffit interior. The door jamb is 8'-8".

**Q: The drum light fixtures.** *(in Photo Questions)*

What brand is the drum light fixture? I love it!

A: Thanks for your question! These particular fixtures are from Perzel: http://www.perzel.fr/en/produit/350-round-ceiling-light/
However, Restoration Hardware has a comparable budget alternate:

**Q: Tile** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the brand/type of these tiles?

A: Thanks for your question! These are white travertine tiles from a local stone source (No brand or product info) and you should be able to find them from your local stone warehouse. Thanks!

**Q: Can I use your image on blog page? thanks** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: With photo credit to Forum Phi, yes.
