Terry Bitar and her team were great to work with every step of the project. They handled things large and small to successfully complete the project. It was easy to communicate with the team, both on big picture issues and on smaller logistical issues. Bitarchitects listened to us and provided us with options and expertise to navigate the task of structural reinforcements for our 100-year old DC home. I also appreciated that, in addition to talking through things, they neatly put things in writing so there was a clear documentation of the project. -- We had an urgent concern with a structural issue in our old house so we reached out to Bitarchitects based on their good reviews here. We received a prompt response and soon had an engineer evaluating our house. The engineer was thorough, helpful, and went above and beyond. He provided a lot of valuable insight both on site and then in a comprehensive written report. I also appreciate that Bitarchitects is able to help me find vendors to complete the work recommended in the engineering report. I have had a great experience from the start and would recommend Bitarchitects to other homeowners.

And all in 1 1/2 weeks from start to finish! Highly recommend them for any future projects!

Their demolition, repairs, and cleanup were all done with great care and professionalism. They knocked down our closet, created a beautiful archway between the hallway of kitchen/dining room, and are now working on leveling the floors. Every team has their pros and cons, but what stands out is their honest communication, strong work ethic, and dedication to doing the job right. They are always willing to listen to feedback and improve, and we really appreciate that. We highly recommend him and his team for any home renovation work. We plan to continue working with them in the future as well. Attached are photos of their amazing work, not complete as we are planning to paint it later and update photos once all is done!

We have worked with Chris Tucker on several projects over the last ten years. The most recent…read moreproject was a rear screen porch and patio. After listened to our desires to reclaim our back yard from the mosquitos, Chris designed a slightly modern outdoor entertaining space off the back of our traditional 1920s American Foursquare. The results were the blend of the traditional screen porch (beadboard ceiling, ipe flooring) with modern features (recessed LED lighting, ceiling fans, all-weather speakers) creating a perfect bug-free entertaining space. Completing the project is a small patio containing a couple of chairs and our grill. We could't be happier with the way the project turned out! While the project went slightly longer than expected (don't they all!), the quality of the design and construction were worth the extra few weeks. Chris was very good at keeping us appraised of the progress during all phases of the project (design, permitting, change orders, inspections, etc.), answering our questions and concerns about building process, and incorporating our changes during construction. We will certainly use Mode 4 Architecture and Chris Tucker for any future projects at our house!

We had a great experience remodeling our kitchen with Nadia and Kelly.

Aidan definitely fit the bill on both fronts. I appreciated the thoughtfulness to every detail in the space they brought to the job, having entire conversations about perfect hardware and over-sink lighting. My partner and I were very involved in the process and they knew how to balance that out with thoughtful and polite input on our choices (even when they disagreed), but I would imagine they also work well with people who have less opinions overall (i.e., more easy going). Not only was the design process and material selection pretty much seamless, we ended up going with a great contractor that they had worked with previously and it made our lives easier to know they were in regular communication with both him and us so everyone was always on the same page. I know this is not typical, but there was an issue with the cabinet supplier right before our project was slated to start and we were so grateful that literally everything was handled by Aidan (including ensuring our contractor could adjust the start date) and we didn't have to do any last-minute scrambling ourselves. If you are looking to redo your kitchen once and do it right, I would highly recommend Aidan Design.

They brilliantly balanced listening and incorporating our goals and ideas with their own based on their experience and expertise. For example, I thought I wanted the sink right in the middle of the counter, but they pointed at that with how much we cook and bake, it makes sense to put the sink at the end so we have a bigger stretch of counter space. They truly made our dreams of how we'd like to use our kitchen come true by turning what was a barely functioning kitchen closet into an open, useable, and comfortable space.
