“Our company worked with Chris on the large contemporary renovation in Bratenahl. The project offered many challenges from concept, thru design to construction. We have done several projects of this type. Working with Chris was a pleasure that is not always experienced on a complex project like this. His attention to detail, communication and involvement in the project allowed for the entire team to establish a solid relationship with the owner and enabled us to complete the project as expected and with the highest quality.”

“Having been in the design-build industry for 25 years and completing multiple high profile projects in Ohio and Florida with William Fugo, I am able to definitively state that he is most outstanding professional I have ever collaborated with. His skill at developing project parameters sets the tone for devising design and functional concepts for each project. This approach is consistent regardless of the size of the project. Large projects including those designated: “Wilderness,” “Valley Overlook” and “Canalside” were complex whole building renovation and additions - yet the attention to detail was maintained throughout the process. His ability to bring highly creative and effective designs to the client is consistently remarkable. Coupled with this architectural skill is the very rare skill to carry the design process to the projects interior. The ability to design interior elements to improve traffic flow, food servicing, senior living amenities, architectural details & finishes, lighting, color selections and furnishing selection & procurement while collaborating with other professionals ensures the finished project routinely exceeds expectations. William Fugo is a methodical project partner. His work is always organized, documented clear & concise and timely. This directly impacts the ability to keep a project on budget and on time. He works exceptionally well with owners, clients and other professionals. This capability also includes the ability to collaborate with technical specialists, contractors and trade professionals - this skill is a source of great relief during the complex construction process.”

“I worked with Christen (Sensitive Information Hidden) on a bathroom renovation project in the summer of 2022. She listens well in order to make appropriate recommendations on layout and product components. Our tastes in color and design were in sync. A great part of her work was she brought sample selections to our house. That meant not being overwhelmed by so many choices in a store. She worked well with the renovation company, keeping them focused and attuned to quality work. I remain very happy with the end result. I highly recommend Christen. She is a great design partner.”

“Schill Architecture designed our home back in 2004. Working with Steve was an absolute pleasure. My wife and I had never built a custom home, and were not sure what to expect. Steve was very open, honest and helped us learn about the process, not just provide us with a service for a fee and we move on (like many architects and builders do). Steve did not build our home, but kept in touch with us during the construction process, and still takes the time to keep in touch, over 8 years later! Steve has evolved his business into not only design architecture, but now design and build. I personally take making recommendations very seriously, as my reputation is on the line when I recommend someone. Steve Schill and Schill Architecture is the only architect or design and build company that I will recommend.”

“I hired Darla for my kitchen design in 2011. It turned out amazing! She is very creative and respects a budget. I was so happy with her services that when it was time to gut our bathroom, Darla was the first person that I called. For that project, and for the remodeling of our family room, Darla acted as designer and contractor. Again, we were very happy with her services. She is professional, reliable and gets the project done on time and on budget. If you are not satisfied with something, she fixes it. She is a delight to work with and I have referred her to many of my friends.”

“Adam came to us highly recommended and didn’t disappoint. We reviewed Adam’s website which showed an excellent sense of design. During our initial meeting, Adam listened to our ideas and asked questions about what was important to us. Adam provided a comprehensive list of questions in order to understand our vision and needs. During the schematic design process, we were provided with plans that faithfully accommodated these needs and desires. At the end of the process, we received detailed construction documents, which were aided by Adam’s 3D renderings, resulting in accurate building estimates. During construction Adam successfully addressed various issues and problems arising from either unforeseen circumstances or contractor errors. We feel Adam has continually protected our interests, and ensured that the constructor made no changes without our approval and has been an advocate against attempts by the contractor to add on additional fees. Adam is passionate about architecture. He has been involved in every aspect of the project, while being responsive to our design goals - generously offering thoughtful advice throughout. Overall, our experience has been superb. We strongly recommend Adam and A|O.”

“You won't find an architect more dedicated to detail and construction quality than David. I've known David for over 30 years and followed his work. Please be sure to check out some of his interiors as well as renovations, etc.”

“Leslie was introduced to us through out cabinetmaker. She coordinated our entire kitchen renovation in 2011 and is helping us to do a makeover on our family room now, including a partial renovation of two bathrooms. Leslie has a way of helping a homeowner make good design decisions. She suggests, but never insists. She deftly steers the homeowner away from some items and provides rationale for going in a different direction, all with a sense of humor. One of the most important things Leslie brings to the table is her stable of tradespeople. Those who want to work with Leslie, and get repeat business, know that their work has to be right the first time. Leslie's contractors respect the home and clean up after themselves. When we discovered a plumbing problem during the kitchen renovation (which was not related to the renovation, but a coincidence) on a Sunday afternoon, Leslie had the plumber out on Monday morning! Leslie is always thinking about the project at hand and how she can keep things moving along. She has great ideas and suggestions, and can redirect a project if some items come in over budget. For all these reasons, we're having Leslie back this year and will likely involve her for any future renovations.”

“We hired AoDK to do some preliminary concept work for a renovation of our house. We were very impressed with the ideas and presentation they came back to us with. We will use them to move forward with the rest of the design for the house.”

“Highest level of professionalism possible, Firm goes above and beyond to make a project work smoothly. All items can be specked and obtained internally if one chooses so no outside vendors are necessary. The firm is very careful in their selection of contractors. We had an excellent experience and would give Bialosky the highest level recommendation.”
