I needed the advice of a licensed architect on some permitting issues at my residence. Dr. Randy Swanson was incredibly helpful in providing advice, even before it was clear whether he would be hired for compensation. I may still need to hire an architect for my project, and I will certainly engage Dr. Swanson.

Dr. Swanson's attention to detail and ability to focus in on what the client wants and needs (not always the same) is superb. He is able to think through any problem and address concerns exceedingly well. He communicates with you in a manner that you understand, not a bunch of "architect-speak".
Description of Work: Dr. Swanson has designed a green, hurricane resistant home for us.

Description of Work: He was supposed to come meet with us and got sick and never bothered to call us to say he will not be able to make it so my husband took off half a day for nothing.

Response from Dr. Randy Swanson - Architect A.I.A. NCARB
I do appollogize for being undable to meet due to illness. However, it wasn't just my own health, but the death of my mother as well. This is not an excuse but an explaination - I should have found the time to call and just say that circumstances were such that I could not provide a free visit and needed to withdraw from the opportunity. Again, my appologies but I do hope you will understand. Thank you. Rand

The design process was excellent. Randy brought inspiration to the project and listened to input to develop a plan that achieved our goal for the desired space. Frequent updates were provided on the progress and draft designs were provided. Randy graciously accepted changes to the drawings as our plan evolved. The work was done timely and the process was explained well. Randy acted as a sounding board during construction and provided insight into the construction process. His overview of the construction was very beneficial to us as he provided a trained eye that we lacked. Our overall experience was very positive and would highly recommend the Randy's work and outstanding service.
Description of Work: Designed a master bedroom suite including all blueprints and necessary documentation to obtain permits. Additional services were performed during construction to observe the work of the contractor in relation to the design details.

Response from Dr. Randy Swanson - Architect A.I.A. NCARB
Mr. And Mrs. [Member name removed] were wonderful clients. Having an older Cape Cod home on the edge of Old Northeast in Saint Petersburg, this professional couple were preparing for a set of twins when the decision was made to expand and renovate their home. Facing a shortened design and construction time frame, we worked together to brighten the homes original character, strengthen and expand the livable area by 25% while still maintaining the new parents 'joie de vivre'. It was a pleasure to be of assistance.
