We had a great session with Tim. In three hours, we gathered many new ideas for our shed renovation. Tim was very helpful in developing the layout and provided beautiful, clear sketches. Very valuable!
We had a fantastic brainstorming session with Tim. He listened carefully to our ideas and tailored his drawings accordingly. In those few hours, we considered about 10 different options for our renovation, two of which were beautifully executed. Tim suggested a "safe" option that we could implement with minimal adjustments, and another radical option that helped us think beyond our usual approach. All in all, it was well worth it!
Leonie responded quickly to our request for the brainstorming session and was able to come by after just a few days. She had already done preparatory work prior to the session. The 3 hours of brainstorming were fun, useful, and professional. I would recommend this to anyone planning a renovation! What a nice and refreshing service.
We had so many ideas and wishes for our house, which needed a complete renovation. It seemed impossible to fit them all together. Tim from ARCHiD was a fantastic guide. He was very flexible in scheduling appointments and adjusted his schedule to our limited time. During the brainstorming session, he translated all our wishes into a concrete plan. After three hours, we had a beautiful drawing in our hands that brought everything together. Professional, creative, and a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommended!
I rarely write a review but I think this time I should. I was quite disappointed with my experience with this architecture company. I had high hopes for the brainstorm session, but unfortunately, it did not meet expectations. Despite being told it would be a collaborative meeting, everything was already prepared in advance, with little to no room for discussion or input during the actual session. It felt more like a presentation than a brainstorm. I had clearly communicated my needs and preferences beforehand, but the design presented did not reflect them. When we requested alternative options, the architect seemed hesitant and reluctant to explore other directions. Communication throughout the process was unclear, and we’re still unsure what the “brainstorm session” was actually meant to achieve. Just my two cents, I’d suggest offering more flexibility and truly listening to the client’s input. Having a few options ready and being open to live discussion would go a long way in making clients feel heard and involved.
