Bioconstrucción en Greendell, NJ

“I contacted Mr. Gogan about a condo I own that needed rehab. Mr. Gogan responded very quickly and gave me a great deal of advice without asking for a retainer, or fee. He was extremely generous with his time and advice, reaching-out to permitting and other approval authorities on his own (with my OK, of course). I found/find his advice, insight, experience and initiative very valuable and reassuring. I look forward to continuing to work with him through to completion.”

“I had the pleasure of knowing and working with the owners of Z+ Architects on mutual clients projects and it was a wonderful experience. I am a big believer in collaborating with like minded people and professionals, so working with Mike and Mary Scro (both owners) was very easy and enjoyable. Simply we strive for the same things, designs that are thought provoking, but more importantly, suit the site and the clients needs, function, budget and life style. They clearly love what they do and are so incredibly accountable, sincere and committed to their craft and clients, that is why I hired them for my personal residence. They listen to your needs, goals, objectives and financial expectations. They process and process again, in order to flush out the best answers and results. The most important thing that I immediately noticed and felt from these professionals, is that they truly care about what they do and what their clients need. That is a quality that can't be measured and is equally important to me as a person. They want you to be completely satisfied and show that through their effort and commitment. I hope you will find out for yourself what we experienced first hand!!”

“We hired Robert Emert as our architect in late 2010 for the expansion of our existing home. Robert is detailed and meticulous in his work and provided a design that gave us great living space and incorporated the features that were important to us. Our house from the street view fits in nicely with the architecture style that exists in our neighborhood. We are extremely happy with our home and very pleased that we hired Robert as our architect.”

“I am writing this letter today to attempt to summarize my respect, admiration, endorsement and gratitude I have for Arturo Palombo and the members of his team. I feel I owe it to whoever reads this that I provide some background information. In April 2010, my wife Amy and I purchased a home in Chester, NJ. It is a mid 1800’s reproduction that was about 20 years old when we purchased it. When we identified the house, it was on the right street for us and met most of our needs, but clearly needed to be updated. Being married to an Architect and having done a major renovation on our New York City apartment, we felt we were up to the task of making this house our home. We started in the usual fashion, getting recommendations from friends, reading through design magazines and talking to “one stop” kitchen designers and installers. After several months, we were not able to find anyone who would take the time to get to know us a bit and find out what we were really trying to accomplish. Then, one day, I was thumbing through a magazine and I saw a kitchen that I knew my wife would love. It was at a house in Madison, NJ. Needless to say, with the use of the internet, I was able to find out it was designed by Arturo Palombo Architecture, of Morristown, NJ. The rest, as they say is history….. Art, as he likes to be called, came to our house and we learned about his work on historical buildings, and he learned about our small, but growing family. He asked us questions like how are you going to use the space and made gentle suggestions to a design that, while we thought was perfect, but would have never worked. If I had to summarize things, Art saved us from ourselves. We knew we wanted to open the family room, kitchen and dining room up to make the space flow, for example, but tearing down the wall was not the answer. Art suggested creative use of cabinetry to divide the space, without making it feel choppy or detached. We were so impressed with his ideas and vision, we let him design 3 new bathrooms, a Laundry Room, our Mud Room and add things like a Pantry and Cubbies for the kids that we would have never dreamt of. Art connected us with tile designers that were more than just order-takers, but actual contributors to the project. He was able to communicate our sense of style to them which made the whole process more meaningful. This did not end up costing more than a trip to the Home Depot and having to fend for ourselves. Art worked closely with the General Contractor, always looking out for our best interests. As a matter of fact, he greatly exceeded my expectation of the amount of time he would spend during the actual construction phase. To be completely frank, I repeatedly asked him to charge me more for the services he provided, because in good conscience I could not stand by and watch him work for free. He never complained or minded, because it is obvious that he really loves what he does. In the end, we now have a house beyond our wildest dreams, for much less than we would have spent if we did these projects piece by piece. At resale time, which is many, many years away, we will not have to explain the quality and expertise that went into this project. It will be obvious, and we will have one person to thank for that, Art Palombo. Please feel free to call or email if you would ever like to come and see our home or ask any questions of my wife or I. Respectfully, Anthony Cuiffo”

“Maia is a thoughtful, creative architect who was immediately in tune with what we wanted to accomplish with our home renovation project. She expertly guided us to achieve a beautiful, functional, sustainable space.”

“It has been a pleasure to work with Ruchi Dhar. I worked with her to plan for a single story bedroom and bathroom expansion. She was professional and patient from the first conversation and throughout the design process. I discussed with a few architects initially and found Ruchi's proposal to be the most reasonable. We went over multiple design options and Ruchi was flexible in producing a few iterations of the drawings. We also needed to file for a Zoning variance and she handled the process easily. As part of the variance process the township vetted Ruchi's drawings and applications and found no issues - they approved the request easily. I highly recommend RD Studio for architectural needs.”

“My wife and I decided to build a house in northern New Jersey some time ago. The house was to be the culmination of many years of planning on our part. We engaged in an exhaustive search for a quality architectural firm, and interviewed several candidates for the job. Our final choice, based on multiple personal recommendations, as well as the obvious expertise that was demonstrated during our meetings, was J. Costantin Architecture, LLC in Morristown, NJ. We are absolutely thrilled that we retained their services. From the beginning, Joe Costantin and his staff were most interested in our vision of the house, and how it would mesh with our habits and lifestyle. In no time at all, they had transformed our ideas into cohesive plans for a beautiful, functional masterpiece. But their involvement did not end there. Throughout the construction process, circumstances occasionally arose that required the firm’s guidance or assistance. Joe and his staff were always there for us, providing skill and experience in any area that was needed. The contractors and subcontractors were also extremely impressed with his attention to detail, and it was obvious that they had a great deal of respect for his input. Joe has such a cheerful and helpful attitude that you always feel comforted throughout the construction phase. He has a way of solving any issues that may arise in a prompt, efficient, and budget-conscious manner. We are so grateful to Joe for making our dream a reality, and for supporting us so enthusiastically during this challenging undertaking. I wholeheartedly recommend him for any job, no matter how simple or complex. He is an amazing architect and a true professional!”

“A wonderful, creative, like minded, thoughtful, patient architect who was a delight to work with through our extensive renovation. He was very familiar with our 100 year old house. Seth helped restore the old charm, though allowed us to modernize and update spaces for modern day living.”

“I engaged Harry to develop plans for a redesign/rebuild of a detached garage/studio. I very much enjoyed working with Harry. He listened to what I was looking for, both stylistically and with respect to the practicable use of the space, and designed a structure that I'm very happy with. It was an incremental and collaborative process and the final product is something I like visually and that also fulfills competing requirements (storage space, working space and guest space). The final plans look great. Everything was done on a timely basis and I thought fairly priced, especially given the quality of the work. I'm looking forward to turning them into a finished structure over the summer of 2019.”
