Home Extensions in Esmond.

“My husband and I decided to add a first floor master on to our home. We spoke with several architects prior to meeting James Hess, that could not give us the look that we wanted on the exterior of the house. James helped us work through some tricky situations. We did not want our addition to look like an afterthought!! When the project was completed, the addition looked as though it should have always been there! I have recommended James to friends and neighbors. Thank you, James! We truly love the work that you provided for us!”

“I work as a subcontractor for Ellen and the DEW Design team. I have seen behind the scenes how Ellen and her team turn their clients dreams into reality. They are true professions and creative thinkers. I would highly recommend their services!”

“I had the pleasure of working with RAM Architecture for a studio addition at Fine Line Creative Arts Center. From the planning to the execution, Robin was a wealth of knowledge and creativity. She helped us create the perfect space with great attention to detail and an eye to the aesthetic of the final project. I would highly recommend Robin and will work with her on our next project.”

“GWA is the go-to team for adaptive re-use, historic renovation or restoration projects. Our project involved a 160 year old building that started out as a mattress factory, then printing businesses and a ladies department store, ultimately ending up standing nearly empty for 40 years. After complete interior renovation and major exterior repair the result is mixed-use, that is, commercial space on the ground floor with upscale residential lofts above. It has become a downtown Rockford (IL) icon, having won statewide and local awards. The building has been the subject of numerous organized tours benefitting not-for-profit, historic and downtown advocacy organizations. Working with the Gary Anderson team, loft owners designed their spaces to suit individual tastes. Visitors are typically surprised and delighted to see such starkly different interior treatments represented in the same building. In addition, residents can enjoy a rooftop deck and container garden throughout the majority of the year. Historic projects invoke uniqueness, individual owners expected attention to detail, and the overall scope of the project demanded plenty of project coordination. When updating very old buildings it is not unusual – and we did -- experience instances involving significant structural concerns, codes and regulation issues, supplier and material questions ... and plenty of others. Gary dealt with all of these in stride. He and the team were consistently dedicated, sensitive and responsive. It would be difficult to imagine better people to work with.”
