“Mauro truly is an expert when it comes to structural considerations. He's well versed in all the fancy beams and has fantastic handle on the best building materials to use for each application. His extensive knowledge from a technical perspective is so helpful throughout the building permit/inspection process. You're in good hands with Mauro, he'll look after your home as he would his own.”

“I hired William Dewson Architects to design a summer cottage in Georgian Bay on a 5 acre island. Our first challenge was to figure out the site plan and where to put the cottage given numerous zoning restrictions and other natural fators. Bill and his team were great to work with throughout the whole process of defining the best site and then brainstorming the design that best suited our family asthetic. Bill's charismatic enthusiasm made our meetings fun and creative, we were all very happy with the end result and thoroughly enjoyed the design experience from start to finish.”

“Jason is a great architect, he helped us a lot to assess our property and gave us useful advice to improve our home floors and basement. Jason Fung was very helpful with creative ideas that adjusted well to our budget.”

“We worked with Gloria to re design and re construct a 3,400 square foot home in Riverdale. The results were spectacular in the true sense of the word and a credit to Gloria's innovative and cost sensitive design. We would recommend her highly.”

“We can highly recommend BLDG Workshop with complete confidence. In contrast to the many bumps along the way of our renovation and addition, the design process was exciting and enjoyable. Nathan and his team of professionals were timely and efficient, good at communication, and willing to work with the trades we had hired; however, their best attribute is of course their smart, inspired design! Our favourite part of working with BLDG was the collaborating... they are the experts but they listened to our ideas and were excellent at incorporating our whims and wishes. We will definitely be contacting BLDG the next time we build!”

“Murray Arnott and my wife and I have been working together for the last 2 years on a new Post and Beam Home design in Ventnor NJ, on the waterfront. My experience with him has been nothing less than fabulous. Murray is a consummate professional, a true artist in every sense of the word, with a seemingly unbridled sense of imagination. If you can envision it, he can design it. And where my vision struggles, his suggestions seem to be spot on. Murray was kind enough to rescue me after a failed attempt with another architect where the chemistry turned out to be less than adequate. Instead, murray's gentlemanly nature and easygoing demeanor set the tone which allowed me to describe, receive sketches, tweak them, describe some more, tweak some more, until we achieved a near 8000sq ft home on the water with a very large workout room with steamshower and sauna, game room, wine cellar, office, gourmet kitchen, 5 bedrooms 6.5 baths and a 2nd floor indoor pool and spa off the Den (secluded from the rest of the house appropriately of course). I didn't realize until half way through this project that Murray is actually quite the International award winning home designer. Not why I chose him and not why we are together at all, though it's quite the icing on top. The reason I was so attracted to Murray is because his designs, in general which illustrate so wonderfully curvaceous indoor outdoor living in log home and post and beam designs are just........quietly elegant and drop dead gorgeous. Look him up and see for yourself. We have just received our variance and zoning approvals which Murray has been walking us through every step of the way, from start to finish, and our plan is for him to stay intimately involved throughout the entire build process. Our Home is in the final throws of the building permitting process with all systems go. Thank you, Murray! It is my ongoing honor to know you, and work with you, as you help my wife and me realize quite literally the home of our dreams. Feel free to contact me at my email address if you have questions about our project: dbklig@comcast.net Best of luck to you on your own project, and may it be as fruitful as ours!”

“I hired Gabriele and his company, Geometra Design in June 2012 to design a 3,500 square foot, 2 storey home that I will be building in south Etobicoke. Gabriele was able to complete concept design, committee of adjustment application and meeting, building permit design and application in less then 5 months. He was able to accomodate all aspects of the building permit requirements, including mechanical engineer, structural engineer and final renderings. His professionism and approach to the project, including deadlines was unsurpassed. He was able to facilitate all my needs, from design to building permit application (which in Toronto in not easy). His knowledge of the new digital building permit application requirements, made my application process very easy. I was told at the City of Toronto building department that most people do not have all the documents in the required format, but my application was perfect. I am very pleased with his work ethic and ability to respond to all requests. He was very easy to work with and I would recommend Gabriele and his company to anyone who is looking for a knowledgable architect, who can take any project from start to finish with ease. I look forward to working with him again soon. Gino C - Wynford Homes Ltd.”

“We highly recommend Captive Designs for their knowledge, responsiveness and professionalism. We had a great experience working with them and appreciate the thoughtful design management and attention to detail that went into the project.”

“Our beautifully renovated second floor never would have happened without Zuzanna of Studio Z Design. I think the most important skill she brought to the project for us was how she guided us through a decision making process that was logical, well-paced and timely. Her excellent drawings showing alternative designs and looks supported that decision making. She managed the tendering professionally, and helped us reconsider some features when estimates came in somewhat higher than we were hoping. During the construction phase, we had the peace of mind knowing that Zuzanna was there to mediate any issues that might arise with the contractor. None did. I would highly recommend her services.”

“Joel was amazing to work with. He got right into my head and created a home that met and exceeded my expectations. He was very insightful right from the beginning, from home placement on the lot to making the home appealing and functional. Joel was a wealth of information and provided me with not only products to choose from but an endless list of quality tradesmen to help with the project. The house is going to be featured in Canadian Homes and Cottages in October 2012.”
