“We are the owners of the Leenhouts home addition. Ken not only is a fantastic designer, he is personable, devoted, and reasonably priced. Could not have asked for more. Love living in his beautifully designed spaces.”

“Very talented, very easy to work with and gave great advise. Highly recommend their services. Great contracts with up front pricing.”

“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.”

“Suzie was very considerate and creative of my family's needs and wants for her design for our basement, rec room, theater room and laundry room. She was also prompt meeting the deadline.”

“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!”

“Michael Menn designed and constructed with the help of his experienced pool of subcontractors the kitchen of my dreams in an older home that I love for both its tradition and its memories. It is a pleasure for me to come down in the morning to a space so much in keeping with the style of our home and offering me at the same time all that is in modo contemporary for the our time. Michael Menn is a gentleman who honors his word amd his contractural agreements. He was always available to me and responded promptly to any and all concerns or questions that I may have had. Michael is in addition someone with whom one could easily make a lasting friendship. I would not hesitiate for a minute to recommend him to others nor to contact him for any future projects that I had in mind.”

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Al Zakariya on a large project. He was extremely professional and very helpful throughout the entire process. His organization on the project allowed for a smooth transaction. I look forward to working with Alzark Architecture in the future.”

“Terry did a fantastic job on the architectural plans for our craft beer bar. He was timely, efficient and went to all lengths to satisfy us as his client. He followed up promptly and his drawings have been roundly praised from all the professionals performing construction.”

“Omar was recommended to me from JAR Corp. He was a delight to work with on this project. He was able to come up with Ideas that I would have never dreamed of by myself. Without Omar my project would have not been the same. He looked at wasted space and turned it into a walk-in linen closet. Everytime I open the door to the closet I say "Thank you Omar!" I would highly recommend Omar whenever an Architect is required. He will really bring your project to life.”
