We had Michael Wheeler design a renovation to our house and couldn't be happier with his work and the finished results. He incorporated everything we hoped to include and did so creating a beautiful and cohesive final product. His attention to detail is incredible -- even down to specifying the precise finishes, molding, and fixtures and explaining his reasons behind those design decisions. His plans were approved with no revisions and everything passed inspections. We couldn't be happier with that renovation -- the space is a joy for our family and very comfortable for our guests. I recommend him without hesitation. When you hire Michael you are hiring a professional who will look after your interests. read more

Michael Wheeler, of Wheeler Architects, earns my highest recommendation. I have known Michael for over 30 years and have been involved with many of his projects. He has a lot to offer. His many years of experience in both the residential and commercial realms have contributed to his exceptional creativity in problem solving. That is what defines the best architects. As a business owner and contractor in the mechanical and electrical fields I worked on many of his projects over the years and was uniquely positioned to observe his work. When I confer with him, which is often, he never fails to impress. His knowledge of cutting edge developments in design, building science, energy conservation and the environmental concerns that impact today's building construction is unsurpassed. In order to build properly, comprehensive construction documents are required. Wheeler Architects documents are among the best I have worked with. They are always thorough, complete, clear and concise! The above provides ample reasons to consider Wheeler Architects for your next project. But for my money, you should choose his firm because he will have your best interests at heart. Okay, so I have read this over, and while it is certainly accurate it doesn't quite convey what I am really trying to express. So bear with me while I resort to allegory... As a child I watched a movie about the famous U. S. Marine musician/director/composer, John Philip Sousa. (The name of the movie is Stars and Stripes Forever, and I heartily recommend it. I enjoyed it then, and have again many times since.) In the movie Sergeant Major Sousa is seen holding an audition for his prospective musicians. As he listens to each member audition, he realizes that they don't quite understand what he is after. He borrows the cornet from the musician currently auditioning and demonstrates exactly how he wishes it to sound. He repeats this with consecutive musicians because, you see, he knows how to play each instrument! At the end of this exercise he has not just a mere band, but an orchestra! Just as John Philip Sousa knew how the parts needed to perform to perfect the sound of the whole, so too does Michael Wheeler understand the work of the plumber, electrician, carpenter etc. in order that they can properly contribute to his vision of the completed project! So, if you want to risk your project resembling so many disjointed parts, hire just any architect who may wave his arms to direct the various workers, perhaps to no avail. However, if you want your finished project to more resemble a symphony...hire Michael Wheeler. You will be glad you did! read more
