“My wife and I recently had the opportunity to add an outdoor living area to our house of 19 years. On the recommendation from a friend in the building trades, we hired Bryant Boyd to design and provide build to spec drawings. He and his staff were very easy to work with throughout the entire process. When it came time to solicit bids, we included Bryant Boyd along with two other well known and highly recommended builders. He was the only one who arrived with every one of the associated building trades and he was the lowest bidder. AND not only was everything completed ahead schedule but to my surprise, when all of the incremental billings came in, it was under cost. Throughout the construction process, Bryant and or the project supervisor came by each day (sometimes more than once a day) to make sure every process was running smoothly. The final product has been described as something out of a magazine and we owe it all to Bryant and his staff. A photo should be available on J. Bryant Boyd's web site and on his profile. We felt so strongly about the final results that we posted a sign on our front lawn and invited everyone to drop by on 7 Oct to see first hand the final product. If you would like to see the completed outdoor living area, you need only to arrange through a member of Mr. Boyd's staff; we would be more than happy to show off the results of Bryant's design and build team. I was recently contacted by someone considering retaining the services of Mr. Boyd. After giving my thoughts to the perspective client, I realized I had never taken the time to post a review.”

“My wife and I bought 5 acres of land in order to build our dream house. We interviewed several Architects before selecting Daniel, and we are very happy we chose him. We wanted something different from the typical suburban production house that we had in Circle C Ranch. The design process with Daniel was fun and exciting as we figured out the how to best fit our home to the sloping land. We designed a home that specifically met our site and design goals. Daniel is very creative, really thinks out of the box, but is also conscious of figuring out the most cost efficient way to get what he is looking for and still maintain the integrity of the design. He was very receptive to our ideas and had positive input and information to help us design an addition to our home. It was a complicated design equation because we had to incorporate ADA livability. His lateral thinking made our ideas for these challenges even better. Can't thank him enough for his professionalism and friendly disposition. He was also very accommodating to our difficult schedules for meetings. Can't recommend him highly enough!”

“We hired architect Richard Hughes, of Element 5 Architecture, to redesign the living areas of our 1957 home. We wanted more light and greater functionality for the space. From the beginning, Richard was professional, approachable, listened to our needs, and communicated his concept well. He was also open to the ideas that my husband and I had about our project and incorporated many of those into the final design. Work was done in a timely manner, and the final result is a more inviting and useable space that’s great for entertaining and for everyday living.”

“William did a great job bringing my vision to life. He took my graph paper design and a few pictures and designed the exact house I had envisioned in my mind. He’s easy to work with and had great ideas for room size, flow of house etc.”

“Carina with Restructure Studio is a talented and thorough designer. We have worked together on two major home renovations including one complete house remodel 3 years ago and more recently, an addition/remodel. We are about to start work on another major addition and remodel which she is currently designing. To cut to the chase, her work is superb and she is a delight to collaborate with. We have always been impressed with the creativity and originality of her designs as well as the responsiveness to client wishes and program requirements. Her attention to detail and conscientiousness is apparent through every phase of the project, from early designs, through estimating, bidding and negotiating as well as construction administration and on site meetings. When working on Carina's projects we know we have decisions made early before they cause delays or complications during construction -- and her conceptual designs look great when implemented!”

“I would highly recommend Neel. After interviewing a handful of Austin architects, yy husband and I hired Neel (out of WImberley, TX) to help us draw plans for a small bunkhouse (~1500 sq. ft) on some property we own in the Texas hill country. We wanted to use an ICF product for the house and Neel is very well versed in drawing plans using ICF (Insulated concrete forms). The product produces a home that is not only incredibly energy efficient, the walls are over 12" thick and give a fortress like feel within a small space. The house has blown us away. Neel took a small footprint and created a truly unique space that flows so well it feels twice as big as the plans indicate. The ceilings soar close to 20 feet and he has truly gone the extra mile to help source some beautiful timbers for us to use for the ceiling, beams and porches. His involvement throughout the whole project has helped us stay on schedule and budget. It is evident that he takes great pride in his work and sees our bunkhouse as a work of art (which it is). We are so pleased and will post pictures of the entire project soon.”

“From our initial meeting, site visits, the plan process and through the construction phase, I found Alberto Jauregui Designs to be very knowledgeable as well as creative and budget conscious when designing a project. Alberto and his team are very good listeners and work diligently to help their clients achieve their goal. They have a can do attitude and exhibit the highest degree of professionalism. Our firm continues to work with Alberto Jauregui Designs and would not hesitate to recommend them to someone for their project and design needs.”

“My wife and I owned a small two bedroom, one bath bugalow in the historic Heights neighborhood in Houston, Texas. When we decided we wanted to renovate the house to meet our specific needs, we wanted to find an architect that we felt comfortable working with, would be open to incorporating our ideas, and would be cognizant of preserving the historic features of the neighborhood. Bruce Roadcap met all this criteria and much more. Bruce was patient and guided us through the design process. He never pushed his ideas on us, but instead presented us with options to consider. I think Bruce's best quality is his ability to tune in to his clients tastes and needs. As a result, we worked together to come up with a wonderful design, which was documented in a professional, complete and thorough set of construction documents. But most importantly, Bruce supported us throughout the entire construction process, and beyond. His professional knowledge of the construction process, and ability to deal with contractors helped immensely. He made himself available to us at any time to offer his support and advice. Overall, it was a pleasure working with Bruce, and we are grateful to him for helping us build our dream home.”

“I recently hired Venture Four Architects and Ken Smith on the recommendation of my builder, Ron McGuire. I cannot say enough good things about Ken, his excellent design for our guest house, the firm and their stellar handling of our project from start to finish. They are incredible architects and produced our design plans within weeks (rather than the standard months that most firms take) for a price that my husband and I felt was extremely reasonable. I would recommend Ken Smith and Venture Four Architects to anyone looking for a professional, reliable architect who listens to the client and then helps create the desired design on time and within budget. Five stars!”

“We found Ken Smith at Venture Four Architects through our realtor. From the beginning Ken strived to pinpoint what style and function we were trying to achieve by visiting existing homes with us and by reviewing dozens of photos that I sent to him. Once our budget was established, Ken worked diligently to incorporate as many of our requests as possible into our plan, sometimes achieving what started out to seem impossible. After we signed off on our plans, Ken continued to visit our building site in order to ensure that the home was being built to the proper specifications. He was an important ally for me throughout the process. Venture Four Architects has a unique process of the entire team reviewing each architects plans so as to provide the client with the most knowledge and experience available at the firm. This seemed an added bonus for us. We highly recommend Ken Smith and Venture Four Architects.”
