3D Rendering Companies in St. Louis

“Disclaimer: My husband is a project manager for this company but I want to speak more specifically to the trade partners and the design assistance. 1. The design assistance received in Basecamp allowed me to have a lot of flexibility in really going with my own design. I knew exactly what I wanted but I really needed the designers to tell me if I had any blind spots in my selections. In example, I was originally DEAD SET on this ceramic, geometric, tile for a mid-century kitchen and I wanted teal/turquoise. I had found exactly one tile that I liked and it was so far out of budget that I kept second-guessing it for that reason and because in my many dream boards I kept seeing glass tile for mid century kitchens and not porcelain. Dana found an extremely budget-friendly tile option in glass and I ended up loving it - now that it is in the kitchen I could not imagine having gone with any of the other tile options. 2. The very first design that was sent over (the 3D mockup of the cabinets and counters) and actually showed us that we had the space to add a small island. Again, I pushed back insisting it would be too tight - they reassured me that it was plenty of room - they were right. (Trust the experts.) 3. Trade partners. I think this is the most important part of my review. My husband has been in the industry for a very long time... both as a project manager and as a carpenter. I felt respected, listened to, and treated equitably, by the trade partners. I was given the platform (even by those few who did not know I was the project manager's wife) to ask questions. I knew who was in my house at all times. I felt completely comfortable in situations to leave the house with contractors there all day and not worry about anything. I actually made fast-friends with several of the trade partners and now I use them for other services outside of this renovation. I think the quality of the trade partners *selected* by Dana King is meaningful because they are the ones executing the process and in your home on a daily basis. Everything was left clean and was quality work; we did not have to have anyone come back and re-do anything, no touch-ups, etc. The cabinet maker received a request from us very late in the game when we realized we wanted to wrap our peninsula and needed a whole other piece; they rushed the panel for us so we could feel our project was complete. Dana is also very good at brainstorming creative solutions and if she does not have the answer she knows exactly which trade partner can make it happen. In example, due to the pitch on our roof we were not able to keep/install our massive vent hood. We tried to measure smaller ones and find others that might have worked and still no go... Dana recalled a design she had seen where the vent was build custom in the ceiling with a custom grate and she got us in touch with the HVAC trade partner who could customize something like this for us. Dream kitchen turned out amazing!”

“We worked with Scott Krecji to draw up architectural plans for a bathroom remodel project and Kathleen Grim for the interior design component. Because much of this planning was done starting in the summer of 2020 they accomodated us with zoom sessions and on the occasions that we needed to meet in person they were respectful of masking and social distancing protocols. Their ideas were artistic and refreshing and incorporated aspects that made use of our vaulted bathroom ceiling and desire for an "open" concept. Working with Kathleen provided easy access to vendors and helped me narrow down selections that were focused on our overall design scheme. We couldn't be happier with Scott & Kathleen!”

“We hired Tim in late fall 2019. It was such an exciting experience! After interviewing other architects we knew Tim would be the best fit for our project. He is so professional and easy to work with. Every step of the way he offered great advise all while keeping our budget in mind. Our plans were approved on February 14, 2020 and we broke ground soon after. Thanks to Tim and his associates we had a quick turnaround for our dream home! We would highly recommend Tim and his associates!”
