“We had a fantastic experience working with Rich and Rod at Altius Design Group. Rich made the entire process incredibly smooth—he not only incorporated all of our requests into the design, but also introduced unique and innovative ideas that elevated both the feel and functionality of our home. His collaboration with the builder was exceptional, which made the journey stress-free and efficient. We wholeheartedly recommend Rich and the Altius team for anyone seeking thoughtful, creative, and professional design expertise.”

“Working with Leah at Studio Architects was an exceptionally pleasant experience. She is knowledgeable, talented and creative. Our design development was detail oriented and communication throughout was clear, concise and constructive. She is able to quickly incorporate changes to improve the aesthetics while adhering to the cost of the project. Our client meetings were in-depth with clear agenda's and the on-site visits were productive and appropriately timed. Her values, guidance and follow through contributed to a residential build that we would not hesitate to repeat.”

“We worked with Locati Architects and Design from start to finish on a significant, top to bottom, home remodel on Lake Couer d'Alene in Northern Idaho which was completed in 2011. The Locati team helped us transform a random and poorly designed & constructed 8000 SqFt "Northwest Contemporary" to an absolutely phenomenal 11,000 SqFt world class "rustic elegance" show piece. The project was extremely challenging and we had not done proper due diligence in selecting a contractor. Locati Architects went above and beyond in every way imaginable to make the project a phenomenal success. Our home is as gorgeous as any Locati home and every single member of the Locati Architecture & Design Team were top notch professionals in knowledge, demeanor and a shared desire to make our home as amazing as possible-in lieu of challenges that could easily sabotage most construction projects-especially one of this caliber. We cannot thank Locati Architects enough for their high levels of professionalism. No one could set the standard of excellence higher than they do. Every interaction from Amanda in design to Dave & Boone in project management and Kyle as lead architect went above and beyond our already high expectations in every way. Building a home can be extremely stressful and our poor choice of a contractor tested us in every way. Locati Architects exemplified maximum patience while maintaining hope and focus to bring an incredible project through the finish line. In our experience and opinion, the only thing superior to the world class Locati home designs are their people. After dealing with them on such a significant undertaking, I can hardly imagine finding another architect that would offer that down home Montana warmth with the highest levels of commitment and drive for excellence and perfection. Thanks so much for such a great experience and phenomenal home. We consider you friends for a lifetime. Kevin Wolter”
