As a structural engineer, I appreciate William’s technical knowledge coupled with his creativity and vision. I always recommend Mammen Architecture and look forward to the result of his creative vision collaborated with the desires, wants, and wishes of his clients.

Talented, innovative and trustworthy describe core values of Bill and Kay Mammen. They listened to us and captured the home environment that we wanted to create with our new construction. With Bill and Kay's expertise, suggestions were made, yet always leaving the final decision to us. Together we created something that was beyond what we expected while being sensitive to cost. Bill's dedication to the detail and Kay's excellent style was a perfect combination. We couldn't be happier with the final result!

We engaged Bill Mammen to design a modern energy-efficient home at 6,500 ft near Park City in Utah. Bill was very quick to grasp the style and look-and-feel of the home we wanted, and he incorporated all features from our very tight brief, while also satisfying the HOA Architectural Guidelines. Often in conjunction with the General Contractor, Bill organized and attended meetings and demonstrations with specialists in various fields of expertise. Although he helped with the selections of finishes, Bill was flexible enough to allow us to overrule him. A large part of the design and construction of our home occurred whilst we were overseas and in a totally different timezone, so email communication was imperative.

This is our second custom home with Mammen Associates and we are extremely happy with the results. We love their overall and room by room requirements approach to design. Our new home works perfectly for the use cases we defined. They are very open to comments and feedback during the design process. We also appreciated the site visits and feedback to subcontractors during construction. We are very pleased with the attention to sustainable design features that improves the overall efficiency of the home.

Bill provided the architectural design services for our home in Park City, Utah. We worked with him from the beginning, when we purchased the lot in 2007, through the completion of construction. He did all of the architectural design and collaborated with the interior designers to make the project seemless and successful. Bill is very knowledgeable about architecture and has vast experience designing mountain homes in the Park City and surrounding mountain areas. He is very respectful of his clients' design preferences and is creative in working within a budget to obtain the best result for a reasonable price. He also helped us interview and select our contractor and then worked very well with the contractor to make sure the finished product matched the plans. Bill has a particular expertise in passive and active solar systems. He designed the home and situated it on the lot in order to take advantage of sunlight when sunlight would and could heat the home and shade during warmer times of the year. And he helped us get the required approvals for the installation of solar panels, a rarity in our particular development.

We used Mammen Associates Architecture for the design, and construction oversight of our new home. We were initially considering hiring a "home designer" instead of an architect and while the full service architect fees are more, in the long run I'm certain it saved us money to go will Bill Mammen because we avoided many costly mistakes and he designs the homes with budget savvy techniques. We only made very minor changes in the construction process, which saved us money and time because the plans were so well thought out and prepared. To begin with Bill took great effort to "get in our heads" to figure out our needs and visions for our home, both big and small. My husband and I had many ideas, and Bill was able to implement our ideas as well as complimenting them with his own ideas. He is an EXTRAORDINARY problem solver. If husband and I didn't see eye to eye on something, he often found a solution that would make both of us happy. Bill was great at knowing when and how to give his opinion. If he felt like we were making a really bad choice, he'd let us know. But if he disagreed with our choice where it didn't really matter he was very flexible. I would say that hiring Bill Mammen to be our architect was THE BEST decision we made throughout the entire building process. We would not have the excellent product of a home we have now if it weren't for him. Before hiring Bill I called at least half a dozen of his references, and they all were so excited to talk about what a great experience they had with him. He is also an enjoyable person to be around, which helps, because we all spent a lot of time getting the design just right. I thought he was also very reasonable in his pricing.

I have been working with Mammen and Associates Architecture for 5-6 years. As a builder I have always been impressed with Bill's attention to detail, and ability to bring a client dreams and desires to life. Many Architects and Designers are only interested in putting plans on paper. Bill is not one of those architects! He is very involved with the construction process to ensure that everything goes off without a hitch. Bill is a fixture in the Park City Area and his knowledge of the City and the Building department has helped to mitigate many situations that have arisen from constructing in a Historic and Steep slope area. I highly recommend that anyone building or remodeling a home consider Mammen and Associates for their Architecture needs! Garrett Strong

I am an interior design professional who worked as a team member with Mammen Architecture on a large 2nd home in the Park City area. This was a 15 month project. Mammen Architecture was very open to consulting and incorporating ideas from the team and interior designers. The architect has a firm grasp of design elements and materials that make the home exciting but also functional. His credentials are extensive and up-to-date with National LEED certification. He was attentive to detail as well as the nuts and bolts of the construction. The homeowner was very pleased at the end result and the team effort to realize their dream home.

We are absolutely delighted with our new home in Old Town Park City. Bill Mammen did a fantastic job of helping us achieve the look we wanted while respecting the guidelines established by the historic district. We had to follow both style and environmental guidelines and he helped us achieve the perfect balance.

I have worked with Bill Mammen & Associates and find him and his firm to be very creative and knowledgeable about his craft. When we had specific issues we needed to address he seemed to always have an answer that was the right solution we never thought about. He works well with our team and I find him to professional in being able to work and meet the deadlines that need to be met.

Bill Mammen took a lot of time to understand our lifestyle and our needs in a new home. Then he designed a house that has perfectly met those needs. He overcame the challenges of a steep hillside and city codes. He was open to our requests and to incorporating our ideas. He recommended several builders that he thought would do a good job for us. He greatly facilitated our decisions on fixtures. During construction, he was often on site and regularly sent us updates and photos (we lived out of town at the time). This was all done at a very reasonable cost. We were particularly pleased with his utilization of space; having seen how he utilized space at other designs was one reason we chose him. Years later Bill figured out how to add the storage space we needed, even though solid rock and other factors presented significant challenges. He has been the architectural advisor to our HOA's Architectural Committee, giving excellent advice about both technical and aesthetic matters.

We hired Bill Mammen to design a remodel of the bedroom floor of our home. We wanted to upgrade our master bath and increase our closet space. As our children are grown, Bill suggested converting a vacant bedroom into a walk-in closet to provide the additional square footage for the remodel. A design was produced that created a new bedroom/bath/closet suite. We were very pleased with the creativity incorporated in the design and the artistic flair in the finish details. Now that the project is completed and we have had the opportunity to "live" with the remodel, we are very pleased with the "feel" of how everything works together. We are extremely pleased with the finished project. We were exceptionally pleased with our design and with the ease of working with this architect. We will definitely use Mammen Associates Architecture for any future projects.
