**★★★★★ — cgl1009, Aug. 2022**

> Tanya with Authentic Homes did an Amazing job on our house!  We had a general idea of what we wanted and she took our vision and made it come to life.  Tanya was so patient as we made changes and was always so accommodating.  We have received numerous compliments on the house design and couldn’t be happier!

**★★★★ — HU-619416279, July 2022**

> We are planning on building a new home on a narrower We requested Tanya's assistance in designing a home that would fit the parameters of our unique lot space and that would incorporate a floor plan of our own design.  Tanya was very responsive and patient with our inquiries and requests for modifications.  She offered helpful insights along the way.   She is also affordable and was willing to take on our unique design.  We found it most helpful when we were able to meet in person.  Making modifications by email has its challenges and some miscommunications occurred.  Overall, we were very pleased with the final product.  Thank you, Tanya!

**★★★★★ — HU-67348832, Feb. 2022**

> Tanya with Authentic Homes was so great to work with.  Patient and good at communicating back and forth between ideas and plan changes. You can tell she has a lot of experience and expertise  through her ideas and suggestions.  She will draw up layouts and elevations based on what you’re going for and then tweak and make changes to make your plan exactly how you want it.  She helped us design a beautiful home.  We’re so glad we got to work with her.

**★★★★★ — Jen Walden, Jan. 2022**

> We had a difficult project adjusting home plans to fit on a steep side of a mountain in Park City, Utah. We also added a garage, a bathroom, a fireplace, a spa room, an extra closet, and a covered entryway to the existing plans. Tanya was extremely patient with us as we went back and forth with what we wanted. She also suggested some great ideas that we incorporated. Everything was done in a timely manner with a lot of professionalism. The price was reasonable and less expensive than an architect for the same service. Highly Recommend!

**★★★★★ — HU-490609721, Nov. 2021**

> Tanya has been easy to work with. I believe knowing what you want before meeting with a designer is necessary. Also being open to suggestions and adapting is necessary as well. We made adjustments throughout the process and we have come up with a garage shop plan that is perfect for our family. I would use her again for future projects.

**★★★★★ — HU-793289654, Sept. 2021**

> Tanya was amazing to work with! She did such a great job drafting the plans for our dream home.  I came with a custom house plan that I had personally drawn up.  She took the plan and made it come to life while offering wonderful suggestions and ideas that we hadn't thought of all throughout the process.  She uses Revit so she's able to create 3D renderings/views of your future house inside and out.
>
> Two of the greatest things about Tanya that I think set her apart from other architects out there (besides her unbeatable price) is one, how thorough and detail-oriented she is, and two, her quick turnaround time and responsiveness!  She would send over versions of our plan with 3D renderings/views of the interior and exterior to make sure things were looking how we wanted them.  Whenever I asked her to make any adjustments to the plan, she made them either that same day or the next, each time sending me the new renderings/plans to make sure that we got exactly what we wanted.
>
> Overall, Tanya is a great designer and she will help you design the home of your dreams!  I would (and have) recommend Tanya to any family member or friend looking for someone to design/draw up the plans for their home!

**★★★★★ — Erik, Aug. 2021**

> Seamless, fast turn-around, changes made accurately and efficiently. Great communication, always pleasant and calm. Very very happy with the end result!

**★★★★★ — HU-408838374, Feb. 2021**

> Working with Tanya Pilling was a great experience. She was responsive, professional, and worked with us closely to develop what we had envisioned for our addition. She sought feedback to ensure we were satisfied with the plans. She quickly turned feedback into a finished product. I have already recommended her to other people. I highly recommend her.

**★★★★★ — Bill Anderson, Feb. 2021**

> Easy to work with.  Very responsive, knowledgeable and thorough.  Started job on promised date and completed it without delays.  Would absolutely work with Tanya again.

**★★★★★ — HU-395952101, Jan. 2021**

> We LOVED working with Tanya.  What could have been an overwhelming process of designing a home was made easy by her.  Tanya was so easy to talk to and it was clear she really knew her stuff.  I really appreciated that she took our list of wants and brought them to life, without trying to talk us out of anything based on her own opinion.  She really designed the home that WE wanted.  And she took the stress out of it, letting us just ENJOY the process of creating our dream home.
