Featured Reviews for Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood

Forward Architecture, LLC.
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 24, 2020
“I pretty much knew want I wanted to do with my project. I warned Ellen I knew enough about architecture to be dangerous. Ellen recognized my requirements and was instrumental in identifying other considerations needed for the project. Included was a need for a code variance (setback). I was informed by the city, before starting the project, a code allowance(variance) was not required. Ellen’s code research was right. A code allowance was required. With her help, the review board approved the code allowance request unanimously. Our project involves bumping the attached garage eight feet to allow for a utility room between the garage and house. The design includes moving the washer and dryer out of the basement. As simple as the project sounds, there is a lot involved. Ellen listened to my wife’s concerns and ideas on the project. Together we achieved a very efficient design. We are now in the permit and construction phase of the project. I am looking forward to Ellen’s input. Ellen deserves your serious consideration.”
Robert R. Larsen, Architect

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 22, 2015
“I have worked with Mr. Larsen on a number of stellar residential projects as the art glass designer and fabricator and I would without hesitation recommend him for any job. The architectural styles required were different, but all were of the highest imagination and execution.”
Hart STUDIO LLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 22, 2013
“We hired the Hart Studio when we needed an architect to help us with our expansion/remodel plans. While we had a basic idea of what we wanted, Tom Hart really brought the project to life. He listened to what we wanted, asked questions regarding how we wanted to use the space and made sure it would fit in with the existing structure of the house. Tom was extremely easy to work with, creative in his ideas, responsive to our questions, always met deadlines and really guided us through the entire project. Tom did an exceptional job of tying in the old part of the house with the new part so it looked seamless, which was very important to us. It was a big project and could easily have been overwhelming but with Tom's help it was very manageable. We were thrilled with how the project turned out and would highly recommend the Hart Studio. If we ever do another project like this, we would hire Tom Hart and the Hart Studio again, without hesitation.”
TKP Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 18, 2013
“The architects at TKP have great vision and practical ideas. I had spent months working with another architect to design an addition to our 55-year-old home but nothing clicked. Then Karen Keating looked all through our home, sat down and in a matter of minutes roughly sketched out a plan which included a dining nook, den, office, bath and storage room. I knew we'd found the firm with which we wanted to work. Everyone that we worked with at TKP was respectful of our ideas, and then made them even better. We love our three-year-old, 1000 square foot "new" space. It flows beautifully with the original house.”
ZOB Design
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 2, 2021
“Zev helped me add an office to my home. Zev was extremely helpful from the very beginning in the planning and design process. His friendly demeanor and honest approach was pivotal in deciding to work with him. Zev was very organized in his approach and very clear on timeline. He communicated timely and met all deadlines. I could not be happier with the project. Zev did great work and exceeded expectations. Would absolutely work with him again!”
Arcadea Architecture
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 5, 2014
“David Biek from Arcadea has worked on two projects for us. The first project was restoring a beautiful multi million dollar 4 story grey stone in Chicago. The building was a classic old building in disrepair. David's design work brought the building infastructure into the 21st. century yet he maintained the old world charm. Thanks to the remodel, the building is renting for top dollar. The second project David did for us was some remodleing at our home in Boulder. After the 2013 floods, we had some serious repairs to make on our bottom floor. David redesigned the worst, ugliest bathroom in our home and made it wonderful.The bottom floor has never looked better. You can trust David. He's careful, fair priced, thoughtful, imaginative, and always has good follow through.”
semple brown design
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 3, 2015
“As a lighting consultant, I get the privilege of working with some of the best architects on the planet. I've been fortunate enough to work with Tom Gallagher from Semple Brown on a couple of projects over the last couple of years. I just got a glimpse at the professional photos of our most recent project together and the finished product is absolutely stunning. The architects at Semple Brown are extremely creative and talented with the vision to make your project a special place. A Semple Brown home is the kind of place where you drive away and can't help but rubber-neck one last look as you drive away......because it's just that incredible and you can't believe it's yours. As the cherry on top, they are fun to work with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Semple Brown to anyone looking to build a new home.”
Doug Walter Architect
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 12, 2014
“My husband and I hired Doug Walter to design a fairly extensive indoor/outdoor remodel, encompassing about 80% or more of the house. Doug is extremely talented and visionary, knowledgeable and highly respectful and astute about spending money wisely. He meshed well with our desire for quality and style that will stand the test of time. He is also easy to work with and a delightful person. I recently referred him and am very excited to see what he does for our friends' big remodel.”
Hive Architecture By Becky Alexis
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 31, 2014
“From start to finish this was an amazing experience. Becky listened to all of our input and took all of our wants and needs into consideration. The project came in under budget and ahead of schedule and the crew doing the work were fabulous. We will be using them again on next major project! Our house was built in 1910 and they did a great job of incorporating the character and charm into the project! Couldn't be happier!”
HQ Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Lakewood
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 4, 2015
“Alison and Anna are wonderful ladies to work with. They have a great eye for design and understand how to get the most out of the space you have to work with. Their drawings are detailed which makes it easier for us as builders. Our company CCM, LLC (general contractor) has worked on few project with HQ Architects. Our most recent project was a custom home in Hill Top. We love working with these ladies and can't wait for the next project.”

It is best to hire a residential architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. They are often the first person you will hire for your project, and it's common for architects' contractors, or subcontractors, to prefer working with one another, which means better relationships and smoother work on your home. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants, from builders, to engineers and even landscapers. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the Lakewood residential architect you hire.

  • What does the cost include?

  • Can you handle my special requests (ADA, LEED etc.)?
