House Plan Companies in Providence

“We wanted to have a extension for our place and was hesitating whether to have a designer to help us. Luckily we met Diane and we were immediately inspired by her ideas and decided to have her help with the project. Throughout the entire process she is detail-oriented and practical. Every decision felt thoughtful and well-considered, balancing design and functionality. The layout feels intentional, the spaces flow naturally, and there are many design moments that make the house feel special without being overdone. We highly recommend Diane for anyone looking for a designer who combines creativity with practicality and truly cares about the customer needs.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the results of our kitchen, pantry, mudroom, and laundry remodel! GMT exceeded all expectations, truly listening to our wants, needs, and concerns throughout the process. Their attention to detail and dedication to understanding our vision made all the difference. The detailed plans and renderings they provided gave us complete confidence in our decisions and made the entire build process straightforward. We partnered with GMT through a design-build process and the builder that GMT chose was also fantastic and seamless. The finished spaces are not only stunning but also incredibly functional. We’re thrilled with our transformed home and highly recommend their exceptional work.”

“We worked with SKA on remodeling and restoring our single-family home in Brookline and had a great experience! We started the process with very loose ideas of exactly how we wanted to use the space and the scope of the project that we wanted to undertake. The schematic design process was extremely useful for exploring alternatives and ultimately deciding on the project’s scope. The 3D renders and VR walkthroughs were extremely useful as we refined the design and greatly increased our confidence in the project we were getting underway. The team (and in particular, our project manager, Karina) were extremely communicative by e-mail, zoom, and in-person. Minutes were taken and shared from each meeting, which was extremely useful when only my spouse or I attended a meeting and had to catch the other one up. Our feedback was always carefully listened to and reflected in revised designs. As we got further and further into the design process, we often had less and less feedback to give, as we were presented with designs and renders that did exactly what we wanted, in ways that we couldn’t have otherwise expressed as requirements. When we had to appear before the Brookline Preservation Commission, SKA’s expertise and prior planning made our project look easily approved with little discussion. It was clear to us that this only went so smoothly, thanks to the significant amount of prior planning and conversations that the team had had with the town planners over the months that we were developing the design. We did not already have a relationship with a contractor, and found SKA’s support in the construction bidding and selection process invaluable. Throughout the construction process, our team at SKA was not only regularly on-site checking and double-checking construction progress, but also documented the project with some 4,700+ photos in a shared album. This included, among other useful shots, the interior of every wall that was opened and the progression of work by trades. Our contractor and their subs never had to wait for a construction drawing, and the entire permitting process went smoothly. We have now lived in our new home for six months, and we still wake up every morning in disbelief that this project went so well, given the many moving pieces. If you are looking for an architect in the Boston area, we would wholeheartedly recommend SKA.”
