    Christopher @ Architects LLC
    Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Kirtland
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 10, 2017
    “Our company worked with Chris on the large contemporary renovation in Bratenahl. The project offered many challenges from concept, thru design to construction. We have done several projects of this type. Working with Chris was a pleasure that is not always experienced on a complex project like this. His attention to detail, communication and involvement in the project allowed for the entire team to establish a solid relationship with the owner and enabled us to complete the project as expected and with the highest quality.”

    “George Clemens Architecture renovated my kitchen, and I can't be happier with it. They were extremely professional, listened to what I wanted, and interpreted it wonderfully. I would highly recommend them.”

    “We just completed our second whole house renovation with the Clemens Pantuso Architecture team. They are masters in the way they balance the needs of each one of us, while maintaining the integrity of the original century home in the community. They are now part of our extended family and are always our first call when we get the urge to work on another project. There is no one better!”

    “Hallie is the architect for a remodel of our home. The project is a large one, requiring many changes, both large and small. She has been easy to work with, always willing to rearrange things as our desires changed. She's offered great suggestions for solutions and resources, and she is affordable. A real pleasure!”

    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 9, 2014
    “As a colleague & friend i have known the principles, Jim & Bob at Westwork Architectural Studio in excess of 15 years. Over the years we have designed and developed outdoor space and landscapes for a number of the properties that they have designed & developed. Westwork's attention to detail and creativity is unmatched. Their design principles & support staff are always at the forefront of their field and true artisans of Architectural design & details. I couldn't be more excited about the potential of working more together in the future to help their clients dreams become a reality.

    William J. Fugo Jr.
    Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Kirtland
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 13, 2014
    “Having been in the design-build industry for 25 years and completing multiple high profile projects in Ohio and Florida with William Fugo, I am able to definitively state that he is most outstanding professional I have ever collaborated with. His skill at developing project parameters sets the tone for devising design and functional concepts for each project. This approach is consistent regardless of the size of the project. Large projects including those designated: “Wilderness,” “Valley Overlook” and “Canalside” were complex whole building renovation and additions - yet the attention to detail was maintained throughout the process. His ability to bring highly creative and effective designs to the client is consistently remarkable. Coupled with this architectural skill is the very rare skill to carry the design process to the projects interior. The ability to design interior elements to improve traffic flow, food servicing, senior living amenities, architectural details & finishes, lighting, color selections and furnishing selection & procurement while collaborating with other professionals ensures the finished project routinely exceeds expectations. William Fugo is a methodical project partner. His work is always organized, documented clear & concise and timely. This directly impacts the ability to keep a project on budget and on time. He works exceptionally well with owners, clients and other professionals. This capability also includes the ability to collaborate with technical specialists, contractors and trade professionals - this skill is a source of great relief during the complex construction process.”

    Latina Design-Build Group
    Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Kirtland
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 14, 2015
    “I hired Darla for my kitchen design in 2011. It turned out amazing! She is very creative and respects a budget. I was so happy with her services that when it was time to gut our bathroom, Darla was the first person that I called. For that project, and for the remodeling of our family room, Darla acted as designer and contractor. Again, we were very happy with her services. She is professional, reliable and gets the project done on time and on budget. If you are not satisfied with something, she fixes it. She is a delight to work with and I have referred her to many of my friends.”
    ar-chi-tecture, llc
    Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Kirtland
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 9, 2014
    “The services provided for me by Ar-CHI-Tecture were outstanding- honestly, better than I had anticipated. I hired them for a home feng shui consult based on a recommendation from a close friend, and did not really know what to expect. The services rendered included full review of each room inside my house (contents, placement, function) as well as the house's placement on the property, and compared these with what each room represented in my (and my family members') life. Many changes were recommended that would be conducive fixing/altering the energy flow in the room- nearly all were easily remedied by shifting items around, or via small purchases. Positive effects have ensued, most notably a substantial and immediate improvement in family finances.”
