Architects in Douglas, MI

“As a Chicagoland kitchen and bath designer, I have worked with the dSPACE group on a number of residential kitchen and baths. They are a talented and professional group. Great ideas and inspired designs flow from the studio on Lincoln Ave. A pleasure to work with on every job.”

“Holly helped my fiancé and me design our dream home over the course of fall/winter 2022. She was so open to all of our ideas and put our minds to rest when we had thoughts that seemed "out there". She also had great feedback and ideas of her own to include that she thought would go along with our aesthetic of the home. One of our favorite parts was being able to do a virtual walk-through of the layout to review the smaller details that would not show up in a basic house plan. We added several little details at that stage that we are very excited to see when building begins. It was also wonderful that she drafted a basic electrical plan and included notes on the plan about future things we wanted to account for. We would absolutely recommend Holly and her team!”

“From start to finish Amy was amazing to work with. She took the time to enter fully into our project, listening to how we wanted to live in and use our home and then coming up with renovation plans that far surpassed what we could have hoped for. She will do whatever it takes to meet a deadline and is attentive to every detail. She works exceptionally well with others, always eager to work with and meet contractors and sub-contractors. She understands construction well, which is a great asset as you are going through a renovation. We could not say enough about the quality of our experience with AeH Designs. And the final product, our renovated home, is more beautiful and more well-suited to our needs and wants than we ever thought it could be.”

“My architecture firm, Allegretti Architects, has appreciated the quality of work and professionalism shown by Glenn Kunkel and George Holmes of Parkside Builders. We had the opportunity to work with them on the renovation of a home on Lake Michigan, and have a number of projects we are currently working with them on. They strive to develop a good relationship with the homeowner and architect, which helps to keep the projects on track and efficient. The most compelling advantage we have found though, is their attention to quality on a budget. We would highly recommend Parkside Builders as a good, quality contractor.”

“Dan listened to our wishes and worked up possible alternatives. Then he met with us to discuss the options and trade-offs. He was very accommodating and resourceful. We have already recommended him to others. He personally visited our building site to get the full picture. Great job, Dan.”

“Patti and Jerry were very detailed and timely. They had great patience with the design process. I would recommend them to anyone looking to build a customer home.”

“We contracted Cottage Home to build our new lake home in 2009. This was the first time we had gone through a new construction project. After several meetings with the builder, providing our own ideas on what we hoped for in our home, he then added his design thoughts. The resulting plan was everything we could have imagined. We agreed on a set price, standards, and completion date. The project went as promised, with no deviation from our original agreement on price or standards, and it was completed exactly on time. Compared to other negative experiences we have heard about from friends about other builders, we felt extremely fortunate to have contracted Cottage Home for our project. They have an incredibly stable group of regular subcontractors, who were most professional, highly skilled and competent in their specialties. Icing on the cake, is the fact that this builder "stays with you" long after the project. For any subsequent needs, or repairs, they are immediately available to support our requests. The whole process continues to be one professional story, even after the successful completion of our retirement home on Lake Michigan.”

“Our experience with Lucid Architecture has been 100% spectacular from start to finish. Eric possesses every ideal quality a client would seek in an architect: honesty, intellect, ingenuity, and humor. He excels in the ability to take what is conceptual and transform it to actual. If there were 6 stars to allocate, we would do so for Lucid.”

“I have used Design Evolutions for two of my homes, both in Battle Creek, MI. The second one is so spectacular I could not sell it when I took a job in a new city. Ii so appreciate the talent and abilities of this firm. You know what they say. Be open to new concepts and allow a talented professional do what they love. Our home took advantage of a wonder view location and was sited on the lot with direct interaction with the designer. I personally am a landscaper and artist but not by trade. I wrapped a landscape around my house that even amazed the top landscape company in town. Design Evolutions gave me a creative pallet to allow a wonderful extpreciation from which to put into my art work.”
