As stated in another review HE IS NOT AN ARCHITECT! We started our project in November of 2018 and…read morewe are now in June of 2019 and the plans are still not completed and have been returned to us from the county with needless mistakes, Like major points missing... just to name a few... no electrical panel for the entire house, measurements for required items that need to be certain distances from each other not notated and the list goes on of six pages of corrections. Ted was told our budget and has a good relationship with a contractor that we were considering to use. They were both in emails and communication with us about said budget. Multiple times and even the first meeting the building was way over budget. He sited finishes that were EXTREMELY high end. When we received the plans for the first time, 50% of our wants were not drawn into the plans. Things like how many bedrooms we wanted and also bathrooms. All very simple requests. when the plans were returned again the budget was blown by 300k. Ted doesn't write down or remember half of what you tell him.So every time any changes were requested it took weeks/months to do. Also communication about needed steps is non existent. If you are not a an expert at drawing and submitting your plans go with anyone else. It was a total waste of time and money dealing with this "design" team. I have countless number of emails and texts proving everything said here. I wish I could go back and undo this past 8 months becuase this was suppose to be fun but it has been an utter nightmare. Here is my advice if you want to use this design team... 1. make sure you get every deadline in writing(ted will not answer you when asking for one, I have tons of texts and emails proving this it goes radio silence when asking for a firm date for him to complete a task) 2. Know everything there is to know about building a house(because the poor communication skills and lack of getting things done in timely manner will result in years of planning) 3. know that they put high end finishes in the designs even though they dont tell you. There is nothing that said anything about what type of wall finishes would be used and we did not ask for things to be put in but when the final plans showed up they were all in there... $50k worth of fancy plaster that we cant even paint) 4. Make sure you walk the plans in with his plan runner Lise when you are ready to submit plans(they charge you for this and you have no say how it actually goes). They dont do anything in a timely manner. She LIES about everything!!! 5. no phone calls only text and emails to make sure you cover your tracks and have proof what is going on. 6. Do not give them BLANK CHECKS thank god that we did not give them what they asked for. They wanted 5 blank checks. They could have emptied our accounts.

Unfortunately, all of the other reviews are accurate. Ted was quite eager to get our business and…read morewas in frequent contact until we had signed and paid and we had his original design. Once it was done, we had an impossible time getting ahold of him. We would request changes to plans and they would be completely ignored and left out or forgotten. After a year and a half, our plans are FINALLY in permitting, and sure enough we got comments back on some of the stuff that we had requested to change on the plans in advance of submission. It was never changed. It has been extremely frustrating. It looks as though we will finally get started in the next few months (if Ted's guys actually get the proper paperwork to the city)... We will be moving out of our house for over six months with our toddler and now a new baby... The project was supposed to be FINISHED before the baby came... But here we are... Frustrating. Disappointing. The end design was beautiful though... So that's the 2 stars.

He worked tirelessly when any issues came up, is very kind and easy to work with. One big issue that came up that was very difficult for Robert to navigate, that no architect should ever have to face, was helping us identify and fix serious issues after we terminated our original builder. He didn't charge us his five hour each way travel on October 8, 2013 to attend a meeting with Brian the Structural Engineer, a member of the Redwood City Building Department, our replacement builder, Tony of Castillo & Company (see Robert's photo credit of Castillo & Co.), Dave Ross of David Ross Associates and others who graciously attended to help us that day. Robert and Brian were able to fast track the calculations and retrofits to fix the code violations and issues that were not built to the original plans. Thank you, Robert, we are forever indebted to you for your kindness and sympathy, understanding, and also for giving credit on your website to Tony of Castillo & Company, our replacement builder, by listing him as the contractor. I will load a photo of our brown shingled Craftsman style finished SIP structure to show your fabulous award winning design of our home. You deserve all the credit for your creativity and ability to create a design worthy of capturing the city's annual award team's attention. A big heartfelt Thank You! Suzanne Zucker
