He took a large space and made it every square inch functional for our family. The finished product is absolutely beautiful and I am so happy in this space! In addition to our kitchen, we were working with Scott to do an addition of our upstairs to include a master bath suite and closet as well as adding a fourth bedroom. Scott was very much involved with every aspect of the "leg work". He attended countless meetings with our General Contractor, recommended a fantastic structural engineer, and worked closely with the surveyor. After hearing our initial concerns, Scott advised us against doing this addition as he felt that it would not be a good return on our investment. I was so very impressed by his honesty! He knew this would be a decision we would regret and he was right! Scott has wonderful ideas and insight and listens to his clients to provide the best possible solution that will fit your needs! He is prompt and responsive in his communications and delivers drafts to you on their deadline (if not before!). Choosing Scott as your architect means you will work with an experienced, honest and trust worthy professional who has your best interests in mind!

We had no idea that he would arrive with a truckload of amazing ideas! Our consultations far exceeded our expectations. Dr. Rosicki made the suggestions in the areas we wanted, but also shared other very practical and artistic ideas throughout. For example, he suggested we slice a corner wall at an angle and add glass in place of the wall to create a larger entryway and viewing panel for those inside. Doing so added a wow factor to that space. As both an architect and interior designer, Dr. Rosicki brought a great deal to the table. He is very creative and he thinks fast on his feet. He also followed up by email with links on suggested items. You will not be disappointed by Dr. Rosicki. We felt very lucky to find someone who turned out to be an excellent match for our needs.

My husband and I have wanted to build a family home for years. The challenge was in finding an…read morearchitect who could understand our desire for a classically correct Stone Georgian. In a world of mcMansions, fake siding and faux details, we met dozens of "sham-itects" who wanted to create a Disney-esque version of our dream....we were frustrated and ready to hire a proper English architect who could understand our vision, when we met Ron Gushue. Ron is a true gentleman, and I can honestly say he is as good as his word. It's an unusual quality in the realm of home building. He was not only a master of his craft, he truly understands the difference between quality and sham design. Ron built a home not only for us, but for our grandchildren and great-grandchildren. How many architects can say that today? It took a few years, but we have a home with architecturally correct detailing; a stairway inspired by the Petite Trianon, and the type of details not usually seen in this country. Ron created custom moldings throughout the house, found antique white oak floors from Belgium, and created a "man's world" for my husband with a walnut office paneled floor to ceiling and a Sapele Mahogany Library & Billiard room! For me, it's all about the understated elegance and old world charm. This house looks as if it's always been here; it's part of the landscape and I look out of my mahogany windows and see a future of Easter lawn parties with my (yet unborn) grandchildren. Ron did a fantastic job and I cannot recommend him highly enough!

He gave a wonderful, gentile touch to my drab contemporary colonial by designing a porch, a curved garage door, window moldings, a new roof and color palette. In addition to his design talent, experience and professionalism, he is truly a great listener, who works around the client's ideas and wishes, while infusing an incredible amount of enthusiasm, excitement, even, into his projects. He was also great as a liaison with the contractor, and was able to smooth over differences and misunderstandings when they arose. I hope he still has some time for us when we call him with our next project!

Jim is very detailed and each week during renovation, we had him manage the project with the contractor to ensure the final output was done properly. Most Manhattan apartments are not symmetrical, so the early stage on doing things a certain way goes a long way on the final look. He understands plumbing, and electrical well to communicate to our contractors. He referred us to a HVAC engineer. When it came to interior design, we had Sarah who provided feedback and suppliers information. She was also very helpful. Jim knows the DOB process well and helped us resolved many issues even during covid and DOB rule changed in 2020 and 2021. We also had him manage the project with the contractors. The contractors don't have the same design eyes and were a bit sloppy and forgetful so it was imperative to have Jim help us. Urban charges by the hour and provided an accurate estimate of the cost. Make sure what projects he's working on so he can allocate time properly. In the beginning with the design drawing schematic, it took a while cause he was on a couple of brownstone projects but overall still have a very positive experience with Jim. He was responsive.
