Roger Greenwald Architect

Roger was a pleasure to work with. His quickly put together a plan that exceeded our initial expectations.

Roger is a gentleman and a professional of the highest caliber. My wife and I are building a home in North Stonington, CT and hired a virtual architect 2 years ago to design our home. After $5,000, and 3 months, we were left with what felt like an intern-level deliverable. We swore that the next time we used professional services, we would find someone who had experience in the industry, knowledge of the area, and the passion for building a young families dream home, not just processing work. We found all of those things in Roger and could not be happier with his work or his kindness as a person. I am now in the budgeting phase and am sending out Rogers drawings for contractors to quote, and the first thing every one of them says is I have not heard of this Greenwald guy but he does damn good work. It inspires my wife and I to know that we were in such capable hands.

Roger was wonderful to work with! We are so happy with this renovation. Roger's skill, experience and creativity made a complex project like ours seem effortless. We highly recommend Roger. Lylah K.

great working relationship great quality of work

I am very sorry I went with this Architect. After spending over $4000 in fees, I had to let Roger go. The first set of plans he submitted to me were nothing like the sketches I submitted. It didn't address any of my key wants, like what wall will have windows, where the kitchen should be, where the entry should be, and so on. In our initial meeting, I showed Roger my town's regulations on accessory apartments (For me, it was an in-law apartment) that limited them to 850 square feet. His first set of plans was well over that limit. On top of that, he handed me a bill for over $2700, which was on top of the $1300 retainer fee, for a total of 24 hours of billing. Seeing the look on my face and my total disbelief and dissatisfaction, Roger redid the plans to bring them closer to my wants. Roger said he would redo them for free. Really? Don't you think he should have? Anyway, The second set of plans was more to my liking, and Roger stated he had to spend 13 hours redoing them and he wouldn't charge me. Can you believe that? I asked about the other 11 hours I was charged for plans that didn't adhere to town regulations, didn't address what I wanted, and were not to my liking. No answer that made any sense. So, after months of back and forth and $4000 later, I had to let Roger go. I found Roger to be un-collaborative, dismissive, and demeaning. I hope my next Architect offers a better experienceâ just my opinion of our short relationship.

Roger is a very detailed individual with a great background in actual instruction work. A great understanding of architecture that is practical and ties into existing design aesthetics.
