We had an excellent experience working with Ramy Ibrahim of Artoo Design S2dio on the design of our…read moreADU. From the outset, Ramy took the time to truly understand our site and our motivations for the project - specifically, creating a space to care for a parent. He carefully considered the site's constraints and opportunities, along with the real-world conditions that affect construction, and never relied on a generic, cookie-cutter approach. Ramy exceeded every timeline he set. He delivered both the initial concepts and final plans faster than promised, without sacrificing quality or completeness. He's also extremely responsive and quick to answer questions, which kept the process moving and eliminated unnecessary stress. What really distinguishes Ramy is his deep understanding of the building process and its practical realities. He designs with construction in mind, thinking in standard material sizes, anticipating how contractors will build the project, and avoiding unnecessary complications. He knows how to take a project from concept through construction, not just how to produce drawings. Just as important, Ramy's experience with the City of Riverside's permitting process helped streamline approvals and avoid delays. His familiarity with local requirements and review cycles made a complex process feel far more manageable. Ramy was also generous with his time beyond the design work, offering guidance on contractors and next steps. As this was our first building project, his calm, steady presence made a real difference and gave us confidence that we were in good hands and not navigating the process alone. Beyond his technical skill, Ramy is simply a pleasure to work with - thoughtful, respectful, and genuinely invested in his clients' success.

We hired BIMCAD to prepare construction plans for a project in Lake Arrowhead. Unfortunately, the…read moreplans contained multiple issues that prevented them from being approved by the county. After months of back-and-forth and paying additional fees for revisions, the plans still did not meet the requirements for resubmittal. The most basic things were omitted (measurements for setbacks) and when we approached James about it, he denied any wrongdoing or fault in the matter. Ultimately we had to hire a different professional and start over from scratch, losing significant time and money in the process. This hurt our family financially. I see other people have had similar experiences so I would heed warning. James was a very eloquent speaker and seemed very knowledgeable, but when it came down to it, his plans were unusable and he wasted months of our time.

I read a couple of poor reviews and the Bimcad response to them, and word for word, the bimcad response is what James told us up front about what to expect. There were no surprises on our end, as one of the complainer guys said, because all the details were told to us prior to starting.
