Diseño de edificios en North Tonawanda, NY

“Rick Hauser and his staff were a pleasure to work with. We found In.Site:Architecture online when we were looking for architects in our area. Even though our home is a few hours away from their office we had excellent communication and collaboration throughout the design phase. They were very knowledgeable about materials and systems while keeping us mindful of the budget. We were particularly impressed by their enthusiasm for our project. We were fully engaged throughout the whole process and the result is the perfect home for us.”

“Gene was exceptionally professional. We were looking for a creative designer to help us build our home in an unusual residential/commercial setting. Gene's design included a floorplan for 2 storey's of residential space which included a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms and millwork throughout. His attention to detail and finishes is above and beyond. We were keen on avoiding box store finishes and Gene was very willing to help us secure options within our budget. Gene's knowledge of the construction aspect of the design was key and he was open to being on-site to help throughout the job. I would (and I have) recommend Gene.”

“I have known John for many years. He is an exceptionally talented architect who will bring many fresh ideas and insights to your project. He is well organized and helps his clients organize their ideas, desires and budget to be sure that they are getting the most for their money. John is very sensitive to the context and environment when he designs his projects.”

“in 2016 we finished a complicated renovation of a circa 1887 historic City home. We had to address serious structural issues, the treatment of previously hidden architectural features and the sensitive modification of the building to accommodate modern systems within a fixed budget. All of this work had to be approved by NYS Historic Preservation Office ("SHPO"). The project was approved on time and finished under budget because of the efforts of the skilled and experienced professionals at KCB. They have a very effective working relationship with SHPO, strong technical skills and understand how to control costs while still delivering a high quality finished product.”

“Trish is a pleasure to work with--a true collaborative design professional who brings great breadth of knowledge to her projects. She is a great communicator and skilled at addressing her client's needs in both space and budget planning. She is creative and fun!”

“Excellent and professional. Very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Accessible and ready to answer any questions. Very prompt service. Highly recommend for any project, both commercial or residential.”

“Rob is responsive, thorough and easy to work with. He designed a roof that was able to fit in an area of 3 different roof heights and provided a quick turnaround. I would recommend Rob to anyone looking for design services.”

“Our beautifully renovated second floor never would have happened without Zuzanna of Studio Z Design. I think the most important skill she brought to the project for us was how she guided us through a decision making process that was logical, well-paced and timely. Her excellent drawings showing alternative designs and looks supported that decision making. She managed the tendering professionally, and helped us reconsider some features when estimates came in somewhat higher than we were hoping. During the construction phase, we had the peace of mind knowing that Zuzanna was there to mediate any issues that might arise with the contractor. None did. I would highly recommend her services.”

“We hired Jeff and the STACKLAB team for 2 projects, and they delivered quality workmanship beyond our expectations on both. The first project we commissioned was a custom bar (top shelf). We gave Jeff a very vague idea of what we were looking for, and from there he spun off in a creative direction we never anticipated. The collaboration with other artisans he brought into the project made the custom bar a beautiful piece to behold and one we are happy to display proudly in our home. The thing I love most about it is its clean, linear design and how it appears to float on the wall. The second project was something we had not planned on, however when visiting STACKLAB's studio to discuss the custom bar, we saw some heritage redwood slabs, and decided to commission a desk from one of them (rubaiyat). We knew we wanted the slabs to retain their live edge, so Jeff showed us some design prototypes for legs he was working on. They were the perfect balance of rustic and contemporary design, so we agreed to include them in our project. When the desk was completed, Jeff and team delivered it to the house, only to find that the desk slab was several inches too long to clear the angles of the open staircase. They dutifully hauled the giant 10 foot slab back to their studio to trim an edge slightly and even brought it back the same day! I didn't envy them having to haul that mammoth piece up the stairs twice in one afternoon, but it was done without even the tiniest complaint. It is one of the most talked about pieces when guests visit, and I derive so much joy from seeing it every morning when I pass by. We enjoyed working with STACKLAB so much, that since then I've been trying to think of other projects we can commission for our home.”

“The house that John Shnier of Kohn Shnier designed for us was our first venture into the design and construction of a completely custom house We had no idea prior to starting how much time and commitment was required to complete this undertaking, but at completion we felt that the effort that we put into it was well spent. We are absolutely delighted with outcome. Working with John was an education in design, and was far more complicated and extensive than we had anticipated. Who knew that there were so many details to consider? We learned a lot about design from John’s rigorous and restrained approach. He limits his palette of materials so that there is a coherent feel that extends throughout the house, and we will never forget his directive that “no part of the house should look impoverished”. He encouraged us, wherever possible, to maintain the same standards of finishing. At no point did we feel that John was in a hurry to complete our project and move on to the next one; on the other hand, he spent no end of time designing, and re-designing, even once construction had begun. His perfectionism is obvious. The house is rich in fine details throughout, and it requires careful observation to observe many of them, unless one is looking specifically. The large windows flood the house with light and bring the outside in so that our yard feels like an extension of the family room which leads to it. We continue to appreciate and enjoy the house after 5 years of occupancy. For us, the house exudes an air of understated luxury and is always a pleasure to return to whenever we have been away. As with any project, its success depends on the planning and we feel that the outcome is exactly as we had envisioned it prior to the commencement of construction. There is nothing that we wish we had done and equally important, nothing that we regret.”
