Arcadea Architecture

The team at Arcadea have been wonderful in helping my husband and I navigate the complexities and decisions needed during our first renovation of a family home into our dream house for the long term future. David, Jason, and Cecilia are deeply knowledgeable of the process, the permitting and regulations, the general contractors in the area, and the method to outline costs at the beginning of the project in order to predict and track them closely from start to finish. This combination helped greatly to reduce the inherent stress and uncertainty that naturally comes with a home renovation project. For us, the renovation of a majority of the house and addition of a new back deck is a large project to the Arcadea team, it's probably not the largest or most expensive project they have worked on, but they treat it as if it's equally as important as the new build of a custom home. The architectural expertise of David and Jason is matched perfectly with the wealth of ideas and expertise of Cecilia's design oversight. We are confident the finished project will be a beautiful, well re-built home that we will be happy in for many years to come. We give Arcadea the highest, strongest recommendation possible, and are grateful for the pleasure of working with three kind and hard working experts during the renovation process.

From our first meeting, we felt confident and comfortable with David and the Arcadea team and there was no doubt that they were the right fit for us. We have not been disappointed. They listened to what inspires us and transformed ideas into something beautiful and functional for our family. The Arcadea team was thorough in preconstruction work, and experts at navigating regulations, codes and restrictions. Arcadea has thoughtful and fun design ideas that gave us opportunities to create wonderful spaces throughout the house. We worked with Cecelia for interior design and she truly created exceptional and unique rooms. Also noteworthy and appealing to us is that their budget for fees (including interior design), ended up being 3-6% lower than competitors for construction cost range. Arcadea has been involved and available throughout the process. We highly recommend.

Arcadea Architecture designed our house. It wouldn't be fair to Arcadea to just call it our dream house it's far better than anything we could have dreamed without their help. Their design was practical, affordable, thoughtful and beautiful. They optimized our use of the site, giving us enjoyable views north to south, and provided us with an extremely comfortable and serene home. They made it easy for us to describe what we wanted, make suggestions and discuss every aspect of the plan. Every building project requires compromise. Arcadea maintains a detailed database of construction costs. They provided reliable cost estimates for every significant aspect of the job. In short, they delivered all that we could have hoped for. They have earned our deepest respect and they deserve the highest possible recommendation.

David Biek and his exceptional team at Arcadea Architecture exceeded our expectations in every aspect. They consistently went above and beyond to ensure that their designs aligned seamlessly with the unique needs and preferences of our entire family. Despite challenges posed by the land formation, they tackled them with expertise and crafted a design that consistently receives rave reviews. The team at Arcadea Architecture is not only highly responsive but also consistently demonstrates a perfect blend of professionalism and genuine care at every step of the process. Without reservation, I wholeheartedly recommend choosing Arcadea as your architect of choice. Their commitment to excellence and client satisfaction is truly commendable. Jeff Caliguire, Boulder, CO

David Biek has worked on two projects for us. The first project was restoring a beautiful multi million dollar 4 story grey stone in Chicago. The building was a classic old building in disrepair. David's design work brought the building infastructure into the 21st. century yet he maintained the old world charm. Thanks to the remodel, the building is renting for top dollar. The second project David did for us was some remodleing at our home in Boulder. After the 2013 floods, we had some serious repairs to make on our bottom floor. David redesigned the worst, ugliest bathroom in our home and made it wonderful.The bottom floor has never looked better. You can trust David. He's careful, fair priced, thoughtful, imaginative, and always has good follow through.
