**★★★★★ — Brightwood Homes & Renovations, llc., Nov. 2020**

> BW Homes
> We have worked with Rick on past projects and we are currently working with him on a spec, design/build home in the South Park area. He is very good at understanding what we are looking for in design and works within our budgets. His ideas are up to date and his designing is timeless. As a GC/Home Builder we have given him some challenging projects and he has come through on all of them. We enjoy working with Rick now and looking forward to using him in the future.

**★★★★★ — Robert Settle, Aug. 2019**

> Rick has so much natural talent and his work is exceptional. He is very intelligent and has done work on some of the most luxurious and visible projects in Charlotte (Southpark). I have benefited form his work on my commercial development projects comprising town centers and mixed use (retail/office/residential). The projects he has designed for us (and other) have a timeless appeal and are very efficient and current. He is quite knowledgeable about project management and job costing.  I would highly recommend Rick Taft and T-Square Architecture.

**★★★★★ — Annette Pabon, Aug. 2019**

> Rick did a great job from day one. We were constructing an axe throwing facility something he had never worked with. He listened and was on board quickly. Dealing with the county there are always changes and crazy twist and he worked through them quickly dealing directly with the county to better understand what they needed. He provided all changes quickly and accurately. I would highly recommend him!

**★★★★★ — Jennifer and Micheal Smith, April 2019**

> We loved working with Rick at T-Square Architecture!  He was very prompt and thorough with the design of our lake house renovation! He also worked well with our builder as a team player! I would highly recommend his services to any one looking  form an architect.

**★★★★★ — Mollie A., June 2016**

> My husband and I could not be more pleased with the outstanding workmanship and professionalism of Rick of T-Square Architecture!  This was our first experience designing/building a custom home and Rick and T-Square Architecture was a great place to start!  We met Rick with a vision in our heads and some rough pictures I found online and Rick was able to design a one-of-a-kind custom home for us -what will be our dream come true!   Rick is very much into the details, design, form, and function, as well as the aesthetics of a home.  He collaborates well with his client's needs and desires- and this shows up in the design as well!   We cannot wait until our house is completed!!!!  I would absolutely recommend T-Square Architecture for your custom home design!

**★★★★★ — 4girlsandadaddy, Jan. 2015**

> Rick Taft did an excellent job on the architect drawings on our new custom home. The plans were beautifully done and we can't wait to see the finished project.
