Praise
“When I met with them, I knew I had found the architects I wanted to work with. They listened to my thoughts as to exactly what I wanted in my house and added in their expertise and ideas. They came up with an incredible design that incorporated my wishes and added in many great features that I would have never imagined.
Their attention to design and construction knowledge and attention to detail gave me confidence that the house would be built to the high standards I desired. I would whole heartedly recommend Steve, Chris and bldg.collective to anyone looking for an architectural firm to help them design a unique and special home that is customized to your needs and desires.”
“Working with Steve and Chris at bldg. collective was an extremely enjoyable and positive experience. Their design and creativity definitely exceeded our project goals and expectations. They understood what we wanted and really got us excited about the project.
Their clear communication and ability to collaborate with the project team made decisions easy and kept the project on track with respect to overall creative vision, timeline and budget. We would strongly recommend their work to anyone. We could not be happier with the outcome.”
“If you are building or remodeling in the Denver/Boulder area, do talk to these folks. Talented, reasonably priced, ethical. Highly recommended.”
“I am a general contractor in Boulder who worked on a remodel that bldg.collective designed in 2013. We were very impressed with not only Steve and Chris’ ability to design an incredible, smart space within a tight lot, but also their ability to navigate the arduous local building codes and requirements.
I also really appreciate their approachable personalities that lends to a very creatively conducive environment that helped make this project amazing. Their attention to detail and knowledge of building practices is refreshing. I look forward to working with them again in the future.”
“I cannot express enough how much I appreciate the quality of their work, the thought that they put into details, and maybe most of all, their work ethic and the pride that they take in doing a great job.”
“As a custom cabinetmaker, I work with many architects and contractors on an annual basis. Any time bldg. collective calls about an upcoming residential project, I jump at the opportunity. They understand design. They understand construction. They understand engineering and green building practices. They understand their clients’ needs and wants while helping them stay within budget.
All of these skills help set their work apart from the competition. Most importantly, this team listens and collaborates on how best to achieve an efficient, beautiful and well-constructed finished product. Would I recommend them? YES!”
