“My husband and I decided to add a first floor master on to our home. We spoke with several architects prior to meeting James Hess, that could not give us the look that we wanted on the exterior of the house. James helped us work through some tricky situations. We did not want our addition to look like an afterthought!! When the project was completed, the addition looked as though it should have always been there! I have recommended James to friends and neighbors. Thank you, James! We truly love the work that you provided for us!”

“I’ll be up front, Jereme, is our son-in-law. We were going to build a new house for our retirement home. It was on an old farm site. There were some buildings but no home. He asked if he could design our new house. We said Ok, with some trepidation. Why? Because Jereme loved modern architecture and we did not. We also wanted a sustainable house. I have to say, Jereme came through. We LOVE our house. I would classify it as a modern farmhouse. Whenever we wanted changes, Jereme would redo things until they came out the way we liked. Our house is very unique. The contractor as well as people he had build the house said it was one of their favorite projects. I know we had some new things that they had never worked on before such as polished concrete for the floors and Corten on the outside, as well as railings from steel cables. We also had reclaimed wood and in-floor heating as well as a wind tower. Looking back, the only area I can think of where I wasn’t satisfied around the design was around our front door area. Jereme and I went over and over about the front door. I didn’t like the way he was doing the whole area, but it finally was resolved when the contractor came up with an idea I could live with. We also regret trying to save money and doing electric in-floor heating. We now wished we had spent the money on Geo-thermal, but that wasn’t the fault of DII. In fact, Jereme provided us research on multiple options. All in all, we are very happy with our home and would definitely recommend Design Insight, and Jereme, as someone to design your house.”

“I work as a subcontractor for Ellen and the DEW Design team. I have seen behind the scenes how Ellen and her team turn their clients dreams into reality. They are true professions and creative thinkers. I would highly recommend their services!”

“We hired Marshall Architects to custom design our dream home. Our dream was to build a prairie style home. We had confidence in Marshall Architects design aesthetics for this style as we've seen a number of his past homes built in the area. We were not sure how it could be pulled off given our limited funds and design criteria. All we can say is that our expectations were exceeded because the design of the home is truly amazing to us and everything we always dreamed about. It is obvious to us that Dan and his team always puts the client's interest first. We never felt rushed at the many decision points and he helped guide us throughout the process. We would recommend Marshall Architects to anyone interested in designing a good looking home, inside and out.”

“After a phone call, Tom agreed to visit me and discuss the renovation of my condo. On-site, I found him both open to my ideas and replete with information that made sense for alternatives to my initial thoughts. I contracted him then and there to prepare my drawings and his turnaround was quick; within two weeks I saw my dreams on paper. He then shepherded my plans through the village and around the bureaucratic red-tape in short order. I highly recommend his services!”

“I have no adequate words to rave about Mark! We had maybe the ugliest split level house in the universe; he developed a creative solution (one that no other architect had previously thought of) and created a beautiful, open home which nearly doubled our living space. He is remarkably organized, economically and environmentally minded, and creative beyond measure. Additionally, he has a calm and kind manner which came quite in handy managing contractors. Thank you, Mark!”

“Sarah Petersen is an outstanding architect, always listens carefully to what you want. She suggests details that make the project special and unique. Very easy to work with and is 100% there for her clients!”

“Wayne is a excellent architect. I worked with him on an addition and kitchen renovation which turned out fabulous. He is fun and easy to work with, knowledgable, and very skilled. I will definitely be using him again in the future.”

“In our experience, Becker Architects is deeply committed to every project they take on. Both my clients and I have hired them for projects that run from very small to large additions and renovations. Richard dedicated himself with the same level of passion and creative spirit every time. The value for the service is truly unique and has motivated Paint JAR Inc to seek out their services on numerous occasions. Truly a key addition to a successful project.”
