It all started one day, my wife (then girlfriend) were living in Ferndale. We were walking along…read morethe street and we had a hankering for a tasty drink. She suggested bubble tea, and I was happy about the idea. To my dismay, after doing some searches on Yelp... I realized that the closest one was 30 miles away. How could this be? A city like Ferndale would be PERFECT for a bubble tea establishment but nobody is doing it. Which gave us the idea, if any great location opens up, we need to start a Bubble Tea shop. Fast forward 3 years when we got word that a Radio Shack was moving it's location a mile down the road, this Radio Shack being located on the corner of 9 mile and Woodward. We jumped at the chance and with the collaboration of friends and family, we were able to lease the location. Which then came to the building plans. Given that we were putting all of our eggs in this basket, I wanted to make sure that had got the best architecture firm that we could get. We met with atleast 6 companies until we met the team at Design Team +. First and foremost, this group is unlike any other team I have ever seen mainly because... they have tons of fun. I walked into the office and I see a home-made beer dispensing vending machine, popcorn microwaving and awesome decorations mixed with music and laughter. It's like, what party did I just walk in to? That being said, although they are playful, it does not impede on their quality of work. They work hard and play hard ~ just like we do! We came into the office, went over the project, got a very competitive quote and couldn't wait to see what they came up with. Within a few weeks they gave us plans that knocked our socks off... I mean it was incredible. The dream was starting to come together and they proved themselves 10 times over. So now here we are a few months later, under construction for the most part and waiting on the glacial pace of getting government approval. We don't know how this is going to pan out, but we are hoping for the best. Many of our worries were extinguished by Design Team Plus, as they are well connected and always pointed me in the right direction. We worked with Harold Remlinger, the principle architect who happens to teach at my wife's alma matter, Lawrence Tech, and Shari, the interior designer who was also a lecturer in the same school. Both of them are elites of the industry and are responsive and great to work with. If you are looking for a fun team that not only will give you a great price but also top-notch service, then you need to come to Design Team +, in my opinion are hands down the best architectural team in Birmingham anywhere in Oakland County for that matter. I will continue to work with them in the future! P.S. Keep on the lookout for The Detroit Bubble Tea Company on 9 and Woodward in August 2014 :)

Working with Shari, Design Team Plus' interior design guru, on my new apartment was a pleasure. Her…read moreguidance on colors was extremely helpful, as what I thought I knew about colors that created a warm, welcome feeling, wasn't actually the case. I love the colors that she suggested (and that I used) on accent walls; I never ever would have come up with them on my own. She also was an extremely effective contact person in negotiating with a retail furniture chain then new to the area regarding delivery fees and extra tarifs. Also, she gladly offered to push through orders on items that I hadn't worked with her on, with other furniture retailers so that I could benefit from her pricing. Once I am finally unpacked I plan to ask her back again for further advice as to making my place more homey and sharper in design. Shari is very dependable and trustworthy, and she listened to what I wanted for my space without imposing her I would highly recommend Shari and Design Team + without hesitation

Loved working with Dawn & Dayna! They are creative, professional, great listeners, and lots of fun…read moreto work with. I first met Dawn when she was the president of our condo association. Lucky us! Unfortunately, due to some poor design decisions by our builder, most of our condos experienced significant damage from ice dams. Dawn's leadership and experience as an architect were instrumental in successfully resolving the situation.  More recently, I hired Dawn and Dayna to give me some ideas for updating my kitchen and laundry room. I'm really glad I reached out to them. They asked great questions to learn more about what I was trying to accomplish and offered excellent suggestions for updating my space. I have recommended them to several others and have done so with great confidence.
