Several months ago I discussed the renovation of my basement into a more functional artist studio…read morewith Jane Estella from Artios Architects. I am an oil painter and have worked in this space for many years. I was particularly interested in maximizing the space I already have. Jane responded intuitively with a suggestion that was both very simple to accomplish and that doubled my work space. She suggested that I take down a coal bin that cut my work space in half and blocked the traffic flow. We also installed shelving around the parameter of the basement for the items that had been stored in the now removed coal bin. The renovation has been completed and I have an art studio that is both expansive and more functional. I am very grateful to Jane and her team for helping me accomplish my goal. Also, their rates are very reasonable.

I hired Umberto to design my kitchen because I wasn't liking any of the designs from the kitchen…read moreplaces and I wanted a fresh perspective. Umberto had me fill out a survey with lots of questions and then took the time to really get to know me and design a kitchen for my tastes and lifestyle. He did four different designs and I chose the one I liked best. He then went to three different kitchen places to have them bid on the project. I love my new kitchen! Some of the more creative elements of it had to be removed from the design to get the cost within my budget, but it still came out lovely. I highly recommend Umberto for anyone doing a home improvement renovation.

From the early design phase, he gave me multiple choices to select from, he was easy and fun to work with. He made regular site visits, which was very important to me as I was always several hours away. When challenges arose, he was easily accessible and always provided valuable insight and advice. As important as anything, Scott's work is known and respected on the Cape, which carried a lot of weight during the permitting process. I would call upon Scott and his team again if I ever undertake a similar project in the future.

I am not good at picturing what "can" be and he did a great job of "drawing" the vision for me. Awesome response time and constant communications. I highly recommend. Our project was a full raising of the roof and total transformation of our existing main floor. We added 1200 sq. ft above our existing house, moved the kitchen and created a full open floor plan. We have officially taken our 1970's home into the 21st Century. Thanks Tom!
