They offered multiple options for our space that stretched our imagination, but were sensitive to our end goals and the final drawings reflected that. Uttara and Swati's process was transparent and they were available throughout the renovation as needed. They demonstrated patience with us and our contractors and were ready to jump in with design clarification when necessary. As the Interior Designer, Josepha took the time to understand the exact vibe we were aiming for and guided us through fixture and finish selections that truly completed the look of our space. The result reflects our vision perfectly. We would gladly recommend ArchiUS to anyone looking for thoughtful, high quality design, good value and a collaborative process.

I hired ArchiUS to architect and manage an extensive remodel. I was very impressed by their…read moreprofessionalism, creativity, and attention to detail. In this review, I will share my experience of working with them and highlight some of the features of their work that I liked the most. Design Process ArchiUS followed a collaborative and iterative design process that involved me at every stage. Right from the beginning they listened to my needs, preferences, and vision for the house. They presented me with several sketches and models that captured the essence of what I wanted. We iterated the design dozens of time. ArchiUS was patient enough to go through the iterations until I was happy with the designs. They were open to feedback and suggestions all along. ArchiUS drove the permitting process as well which I really appreciate. Construction Management ArchiUS helped me find contractors, structural engineers, survey partners, landscape architects, and many more trades people. ArchiUS were closely involved during the construction phase. Changes in design were inevitable as we discovered new opportunities during the process. Team ArchiUS were creative, agile, and thorough with their changes in design. ArchiUS coordinated some difficult design decisions that had to be made along the way with the engineers, contractors, and other trades people. Finishes selection My project required us to make hundreds of decisions on finishes. Team ArchiUS helped create an inventory and timeline of what decisions needed to be made and by when. The mood boards reflected my taste and were a great starting point for me to start selections. On several occasions ArchiUS did not shy away from asking me to reconsider some of my selections which I really appreciate. Final Outcome I am very happy with the final outcome of the project. The house is beautiful, functional, and comfortable. It reflects my personality and style and suits my lifestyle and needs. It has everything I wanted and more, from the gorgeous kitchen, great outdoor space, cozy bedrooms, elegant bathrooms, and the landscaped garden. It is truly my dream home. Conclusion I would highly recommend Team ArchiUS to anyone who is looking for a reliable, creative, and professional architectural firm. They are experts in their field, and they deliver high-quality work. They demonstrate high work ethic and are easy to work with. They made the whole process of my extensive remodel much easier. Their project management approach is the sweet spot between what complete design and build firms offer (higher cost, higher degree of project management support) and doing everything on your own (lower cost but higher time commitment). I am very grateful to them for helping me turn my vision into reality.

If you don't read any other part of my review, remember this part... When we submitted for permitting by the City of Bellevue, they came back with ZERO revisions, and we had fully approved plans in just a few months. This shows how experienced and thoughtful they were when designing our home. This exceeded our timeline expectations by a couple of months. As far as working with them, we really enjoyed how they got to know me and my wife, and took our lifestyle/personality into the design of the home. We went from just talking about how we liked to live, do hand drawn sketches, to CAD drawings, improving the design all along the way. Once construction started, they were also involved in changes we made on site. And they were very fast in getting new drawings and plans to engineers while we were making changes. Also, once we were done with framing, John & Scott walked the home and caught where some things weren't done according to plan and we were able to fix things before it was too late. We are about 2 months away from moving into our dream home, and we look back at how much we enjoyed the process of designing our home. I would absolutely recommend working with them in the future.

We updated from a 90's aesthetic to a contemporary vibe, replaced some significant in-house elements and custom designed several major areas like the fireplace and kitchen. We expanded the pantry and added a counter and switched the dining room into an office for my wife. Dan guided us through the process, helped us make informed tradeoffs and kept us apprised as things changed. Dan regularly attended the job site while the work was progressing and made sure the contractor was catching all the details in the plans. Sam, one of the interior designers, helped us with color choices, contrasting elements and gave us pointers to local suppliers where we could see and touch what was being proposed. We are very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend Peter D. Swindley Architects and in particular, Dan Keating.

Two projects have been major home remodels and one commercial office, build out. She is currently working on the 3rd project where she is again professional and provided with what I wanted. Emily has always been willing to make changes and the first to say "I will take care of it" if I had a problem with something. I do my part in the process as I work with Emily and the contractors to make sure budget is maintained. Emily has always been responsive and available. I have never known her to avoid or not deal with a problem in a professional and honest manner. Clearly, I would use her again.

My husband and I chose Nicolette because we were looking for a clean European style for our new…read morehome. Coming from Germany ourselves and Nicolette being from the Netherlands, we knew that she would understand what we were looking for. Nicolette is a master in guiding you through the design process. She would come up with ideas, colors and arrangements that I would never dreamt of (e.g. I would not have dared to pick a blue-grey color for two accent walls, but they turned out perfectly). At the same time she listens carefully and incorporates the clients ideas. She made mood boards for us, so we could see and compare beforehand what our fireplace would look like. All designs were made to scale, which made it easy to read and understand. The result is an interior design that truly reflects our style, just way better than if we would have done it without her. With the help of Nicolette we have turned the new house into our stunningly beautiful home. Thank you so much Nicolette!

I hired Nicolette when I finally got tired of the messy home office syndrome. She was fantastic!…read moreShe started to envision solutions right away. I didn't know what to do with all my paperwork and business stuff.

She is remarkably left brain (logical) and right brained (creative) and I am remarkably happy! Thank you Nicolette!

We just knew that we wanted someone to come up with a vision- help us add space, help us make the existing space more usable etc. Isaac has been wonderful and helped us design a plan that fit all of the needs that we both knew and didn't know that we had-specifically he helped us to find additional space by scoping out a repurposing of an unused attic area above our garage, and came up with a completely reworked floor plan that would make the existing space fit our own needs better. Isaac worked with us on multiple iterations of the plan-from inception to filing needed local permits. Moreover, Isaac helped us to identify partners along the way, finding a GC for us and project managing the entire process. I also want to mention that not only is the quality of Isaac's work high, but his communication and attention to detail made the process more pleasant than painful-he was always on top of everything that we needed-from scheduling surveyors to making sure that we thought though where to place light fixtures. I highly recommend Isaac and ITM Associates!
