Thanks very much Steve. It has been very enjoyable and productive project to provide architectural design on this major renovation in west Toronto, owing in large part to your project management experience and fairness with people. Decisions and directives from yourself were clear and concise with a steady vision, including the selection of a collaborative contractor. All this adds up to a project which makes the best use of contributions from all stakeholders.
Addition architectural drawings
Thank you for the endorsement of my design skills, however I was sorry to learn that your experience through the construction phase of your project was unsatisfactory. It came as a surprise given that I received only one communication during the course of construction. If you would be willing to discuss this over the phone, or in person please contact me directly @ (416) 533-7866. Sincerely Bart Szoke

Architecture, securing permits, committee of adjustment, construction budget and estimating
Thanks Thomas. It is a pleasure working with you given your considerable knowledge and skill in construction, and the very good design eye you bring. I know your clients are pleased and understandably so - they enjoy the work of a true craftsman with wide ranging knowledge who is immersed in the work - and I have the enjoyment of a high quality construction of my architectural design on this Toronto project.
Thanks Angela. It was a pleasure working with your family by providing the architectural design for an addition and renovation to transform a side split Don Mills house from the 70's. The design choices you made for the interior enhanced the look and feel of the spaces. Overall great spaces for many years to come.
Thanks Don. Our architectural design and construction work on your house in the Toronto Beach area was a pleasure and I really enjoyed working with your family. I appreciate our ongoing relationship and your generous support.
Thank you Sue. It was a pleasure to work with you and provide the architectural design to create a lovely master suite at the roof level of your Victorian house in downtown Toronto.
3rd Storey Addition - Architectural Services
This was the architectural design of a third floor addition to a Toronto house focused on a tight timeline, which can be an experience ranging from invigorating to unpleasant and this project was firmly the former. If one embraces the idea that it is the quality of attitude that everyone brings to the work that opens the door for possibility then truly remarkable things can happen. The owners were excited about what they hoped was achievable, they listened to the potential limitations, they did their homework, and they responded to setbacks gracefully...this is how to get the most from your team. Of course the team has to respond in kind and do their part to make it all work. The other critical factor was a lot of felicitous timing with the City approvals process resulting in an unofficial record for taking a project through Committee of Adjustment and on to a building permit. It was a great experience to work with Nirvan and his wife and I look forward to future projects with them.
The provision of interior design and construction for this east Toronto house was managed overall by Peter on this project and he did a great job of coordinating the design phase with the customer. Peter organized the contract and set up the initial meeting with the customer, and as the design work progressed, kept just the right amount of contact with myself and the customer to be informed but not be overbearing, allowing me to be creative and productive.
