“Gaskill Architecture designed a beautiful modern home that was tailored to fit my unique building site. Robert's ability to analyze the land and create a design that blends with nature is amazing. The design process was very engaging and the tools he uses were invaluable during the design process. I would highly recommend Gaskill Architecture for their professionalism, attention to detail and understanding of what the client is looking for throughout the design process. Thanks again Bob!”

“I've worked with Justin and Cipriani Studios in the past at a previous firm. We worked side by side with Justin to help develop his projects. He has a very keen eye for the crisp lines and modern details that make his projects really pop. I've always thought of myself as one of the more pragmatic architects, while Justin is much more the dreamer and visionary, and it shows in his beautiful and original designs. He's one of the few architects or designers I know who is putting out really high end modern design in the Pittsburgh region, and it's a truly refreshing experience compared to so many of the cookie cutter suburban developments that continually take place. Justin is willing to take a risk on good design and urban infill projects, and it's paying off!”

“AM made a sight visit with us for the potential building we plan to do of our dream home on a premium lot. He fit us into his schedule, was prompt and professional, and had excellent ideas and showed us how he would implement them.”

“Approximately seven years ago my wife and I started to explore various options of expanding our home for our growing family. We I connected with Darrell through one of my wife's best friend who had hired Darrell. The journey began with what we "thought" made the most sense which was to build a four-season room with additional basement space below along with a detached 2-car garage as we had a 1-car garage. Darrell helped make our vision a reality on paper added sensible touches and value engineered the job. Having never had a job of this size (I get it that in reality it was pretty small), we experienced sticker shock when the bids came back and could not justify to investment to get any reasonable return on our investment. So we paused and gave more thought as to another strategy which was to go out the other side of our house with an open kitchen over a 2-car garage. Sounds simple but ask him to show you the photos. Not only does the space work but he made the house flow inside beyond our expectations. He also helped in re-imagining closets, powder rooms, a second floor bath an an office for my wife. We get rave reviews. Now four years after we completed the project, we are confident it was absolutely the best thing we could have done. Our builder commented several times to me that he appreciated the extensive notes on the drawings as it left very few change orders in the end. We have recommended Darrell to neighbors, family members and anyone who asks. You won't be disappointed if you work with Darrell. He is a joy to work with. He has great vision but also is a great listener. His guidance in the process was invaluable. I don't think we will move anytime soon but if we did and needed to do the work again, we know the architect we'll call. Chris and Maureen H. Fox Chapel, PA”

“I hired Sarah to salvage a DIY kitchen renovation that's been at least 4 years in the making. My project had gotten a bit off track and I wanted help with a better design and a clear path forward workplan-wise. Sarah was excellent at listening to my (sometimes super-specific) needs and preferences and incorporating them into a fantastic kitchen design. I already had a lot of materials picked out, various family members doing different pieces of the project, and some stubborn ideas about how I wanted things to be laid out. Sarah expertly incorporated what was good and provided alternatives for what could use improvement. She was respectful of my budget too. I'm so happy with the finishes that she picked for my kitchen and the workplan she laid out. I can't wait to build her design in real life. I've already recommended her to friends. 100% would hire again!!”

“I hired Mr. Calisti to design an addition for my 100 year-old residence. He had very creative solutions to problems and his work was impressive to say the least. Every detail was well thought out. Lee developed a great relationship with our contractor and was always avaliable to answer any questions that arose on the jobsite. I felt that Lee had a great knowledge base about the newest building concepts and was able to incorporate these ideas into the addittion without affecting the original historic aspect of the house. I highly recommend Mr. Calisti to anyone looking to use architectural services.””

“Our meetings with Fisher Architecture were always with the principal along with members of his well-trained and specialized team, and we felt comfortable contacting the principal at any time with questions or concerns. Eric's response time and turnaround for requested meetings was excellent. We sincerely felt as if our project was Fisher Architecture’s most important at all times. Eric has assembled an impressive array of contacts throughout his years in business and we felt comfortable asking for his guidance in hiring contractors, engineers and other resource people. There were many twists and turns in the design process, which allowed us to fully explore different options. Eric was patient and visionary throughout the process. Ultimately, Eric's vision for our renovated riverfront home resulted in a modern concept beyond what we ourselves could imagine while satisfying every one of our initial requests. We are delighted with his unique take on the renovation of our home and are confident that anyone using his services would be equally happy.”
