Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Erie County

“As new house owners, we left a condo living and decided to move into a house. We ultimately decided to purchase an older house and customize it to our tastes and needs. I had used Houzz.com to source some architects to help us out. We found Robert and a few others but it was Robert that accompanied me to house inspection for one and then also accompanied me to view the house we ended up purchasing. From start to finish, he was there. We utilized Houzz.com albums to collect photos and ideas to share so he could get a better sense of our needs and wants. He managed pretty much everything from the contractors to the purchasing of items. He also has a great eye for detail so when he conducted the final walk (we were traveling) and approved it, I didn't worry about him missing anything. As new home owners new to renovation, we did go over budget and in the end, we did have to omit some of the items/detailing that we wanted which was frustrating but Robert provided us alternatives so that we could discuss and decide. In the end, with the budget issue and not having the home 100% to what we wanted, we are still very happy with the project. People who have seen the home before are amazed at the results. We are very happy to have found Robert. As non-creative home owners who have never renovated a home, we would have never come up with some of the concepts he produced. He enabled us to customize this house enough that it meets our aesthetic and functional needs. Robert is very diligent and detailed. I think he may have been too detailed for us (ha) but as a result of me giving in to him, we have a stand out master bathroom. I view our home a great learning experience into the area of renovation. I now have Robert to use as a standard.”

“The team at technical graphics did a wonderful design for our large barndominium 11,600 sf of concrete!! Their suggestions and final plan were a huge part of making this dream come true. Even being several states away from us, their communication and prompt service with me and our subcontractors made the project go smoothly”

“Excellent architecture firm. I've used Gabe Deck and Derek Spencer on several projects and every time they have done excellent work and have been extremely reliable. Highly recommend.”

“We decided to go with Robertson kitchens when we were remodeling our kitchen. Dick and his staff gave us the best experience around. I recommend them for all your remodeling needs. Jon and Heather . Mentor ohio”

“We've been using Marshall Sabatini for years and they have always done exceptional work on both residential and commercial designs. 5 Star.”

“I recently worked with Chris on designing a new great room and remodeling an office and upstairs living space. I have never worked with an architect before and was a little intimidated about it. I had such a great experience! Chris not only created a wonderful design that I was looking for, but he listened to me talk about my life, likes, dislikes and he created a few surprises that I never thought to ask for. He was insightful and always provided honest feedback on what would work and what would not work. I am looking forward to the next stage of turning Chris's design into reality!”

“We hired Hays Architecture to design an addition to our raised ranch home. Ellie was nothing but wonderful - on budget, professional, and completely knowledgeable about addition work to a not-easy style of house. She explained what we could and could not do, gave us options, and worked with our contractor as necessary. We were completely satisfied with her work and recommend this firm as one you can trust with your most valuable investment - your home.”

“Lowe's works with you from the beginning, offering design ideas, computer aided design, and contractor's to complete your project, and are very accommodating.”

“Glad to see you on Houzz. Pleasure working with you. Keep up the great work, you are wonderful young professionals.”

“We are writing to wholeheartedly recommend Timothy (Tim) Strosser of Studio 810 Design as a designer and general contractor for home improvement. In 2012, we met Tim at the Philadelphia Home Show, and were impressed by Tim’s portfolio of previous designs and building projects. On his first visit to our home in the Philadelphia suburbs Tim impressed us again with his instant understanding of our home improvement needs. We wanted to build a new bathroom in a little-used space that was attached to our master bedroom, but Tim suggested a much better solution; building an addition to the house’s second floor, and placing the bathroom in it. This way we got a fabulously looking new master bathroom that is an envy of our friends and neighbors, and avoided a mistake of building a bathroom that would be to small and not convenient. Timothy also designed and built for us a mudroom in front of our house, completely redesigned and rebuilt our patio, and changed the siding all around the house. We are very satisfied with the quality of his design and workmanship of his crew. Tim is a very experienced project manager, and he worked hard to accommodate our specific requirements during the project and to adjust all the logistics accordingly. He was able to keep the project deadlines despite very unfavorable weather conditions, the climax of which was Hurricane Sandy. During the project we occasionally changed our mind regarding some details (e.g., selection of tiles), and Tim was always ready to either accept our new ideas or, when they were not practical, offer very good alternatives. During the project we developed a trusting, friendly relationship with Timothy and many of his crew members. We were so satisfied with our collaboration with Tim that, after the first big project was completed, we tasked him with a couple of smaller projects in our house (e.g., staircase renovation), and outside (landscaping). We are sure that, with his great artistic taste, his extensive technical experience, and his understanding of individual clients’ characters and preferences, Timothy can exceed expectations of the most demanding clients. We already recommended the services of Studio 810 to our neighbors, and we recommend them to you.”
