“This is an amazing site. I very much enjoyed the photos of the cabins. Each of the homes are works of art. I know from experience that Stephen meets deadlines and comes close on budgets. Stephen's knowledge enables him to create not only sensible, workable, and creative spaces but also a home that is not only unique but expresses who you are. Stephen is the architectural designer you want.”

“Janet was a very hands on and helpful project manager/general contractor for our bathroom remodel. She was here everyday twice a day, keeping the sub-contractors on schedule, making sure everything was in proper order, and just making sure the whole process was running smoothly. The finished product speaks for itself, they look great! I would recommend her to other businesses.”

“Excellent experience! Made a great space that is very useful. Turned 1 stall of our 4 car garage into a wonderful mudroom and laundry room. We use the space daily and have never regreted doing the project. Very professional group to work with and the project was done in a timely manner.”

“Spring of 2014 my husband and I started planning our lake home. We had never built a home before and were tackling a cottage style custom home. After 8 weeks of pulling my hair out with terms I didn’t understand, countless hours researching on the internet, my lack of confidence in my ability to convey “charming” and “quaint” regarding the finished home would look, I was at the end of my rope. Marla Waseka, Graceful Spaces, was recommended to us by a friend and when we met her we connected immediately. It started with a simple, “so you are looking for a story and a half” cottage—and we were off and running. Marla is very knowledgeable, creative and resourceful. It was clear that the bulk of the decision making would be on my shoulders. With that said, my whole attitude about planning and building has changed and it now building the lake home that we are proud of is becoming a reality. 1. She took my random thoughts, ideas and pictures I had of likes/dislikes and helped us create the vision of what “our” cottage home would be. 2.She is our advocate and has provided so many creative options for design “issues” as we have gone along with the project. Her gentle guidance on design options and design alternatives has been so beneficial to our success. 3.When my eyes have glazed over and start to roll to the back of my head, Marla took over with the decisions—and this happened frequently! She understands what we want and can step in to make sure we get it. 4.Marla guided us on areas to save and where to splurge. In addition, she hunted down materials for our cost saving. She found us a reclaimed door that is half the cost of our budget and so unique and perfect for our space. And by the way, she’s always kept our budget at the forefront of our discussions. 5.In addition to all these other accolades, Marla has worked exceptionally well with our builder and subcontractors. Our lake home is not completed but we are so excited with each new stage of development. We highly recommend Marla Waseka of Graceful Spaces and will be using her again in the future!”

“Anthony at ADS Designs was a pleasure to work with through our house design process. He was very professional and met all our aggressive timelines while offering creative solutions. We would highly recommend his services!”

“Kim provided plans for a 16 unit apartment building and did an excellent job of fitting various size units and attached garages together. I would recommend highly to anyone needing new or remodeling plans.”

“I have hired Steve to design several of my projects and he has been nothing short of impressive. Steve is a pleasure to work with from the first time we walk onto a project until the final drawings are complete. What makes Steve different from other designers I've worked with, is that he "listens" to his customers, and asks just the right questions to make sure that his clients are getting a design with the best interests of their lifestyle in mind. Although Steve is excellent at putting your ideas into reality, his greatest feature, I think, is his creativity. When my customers don't have a lot of design ideas of their own for their project, they can sit back and let Steve do what he does best and create them a custom design from scratch. Steve is a top-notch designer; one that I recommend highly.”

“Best Architect ever. I have worked with Kevin twice, first time building the Gull Lake Yacht Club and now to build our home on Gull Lake. He is very patient great about always watching out for your best interest. Offers beautiful details and helps stay on budget.”
