“Edward and I were neighbors in Palatine, Illinois and taught architecture together at Judson College. I have the highest respect for Edward's abilities both as a practicing architect and as an architecture professor. This combination of practicing architect/professor is respected in the profession as achieved by some of the most industrious and design savvy members of our field. Edward's photos speak volumes of his design sensitivity. His drawings are likewise works of art in a profession that has lost much of its hand drawn talent in 25 years of CAD prevalence. He clearly has the design maturity to know the disciplines of restraint, light and balance, harmony, forms and textures and can apply this maturity of design to multiple venues. Working directly with Edward I learned his quality of sincere responsible work ethic and constant self improvement motivation. He has excellent people skills and is a collaborative proactive problem solver. His continued professional advancement with LEED accreditation, professorship in Iowa, and his ever expanding portfolio are testaments of his commitment to a profession which demands lifelong learning to maintain excellence. Very glad to find Edward's page here and heartily recommend him to clients seeking a conscientious architect for their next project. Best Regards, Douglas Clark, NCARB Architect San Mateo, CA”

“I have worked with Catherine on several projects over the years and find her very easy to work with. She listens to the clients needs and addresses those needs into her designs. She has an architectural background and her attention to detail shows in her designs. I would recommend her for your design needs.”

“Mark Clipsham listens carefully to my ideas and then spends the time creatively and intuitively creating what I was trying to envision. He is very involved in my goals to make sure my projects turn out successfully. Mark provides great value. I am very pleased with all of his work.”

“We did a complete renovation of a late 1800's main street building in order to open up a pet store. Concepts In Design did all the design work for the outside as well as the interior of the pet store. They were fabulous to work with! Their design makes us unique to the industry and our building became a main street attraction!”

“Marcia Lyon is a miracle worker! I had been followong her articles on "remodels" in the St. Paul Pioneer Press for quite some time. I really appreciated her no non-sense, use what you have approach. We decided to hire her to design a 20 x 27 ft. Master Bedroom Suite addition to our 1950's vintage house. She spent two hours with us touring the complete house, asking questions, drawing plans until she came up with the PERFECT one. We loved it! She gave us tips on how to find a contractor to do the work. Marcia knows her stuff! It was very fun to actually see our plan in the Pioneer Press! Marcia is a very pleasant person and easy to work with. We very much enjoyed working with her.”

“We have had a great experience working with Cycle Design Studio! We had several different ideas and projects for our house and they talked all of them through with us and gave us guidance on what was reasonable and worth the money and what perhaps wasn't. They gave us great guidance on the little things that we would need to consider, ballparks on what they thought things could cost, and help finding contractors that could fit our needs. We highly recommend working with them if you have ideas for updating your home!”
