We thought we would share this wonderful note we received recently from our clients, Jeff and Sandy, owners of The Sanctuary at Hope Farms. Jeff and Sandy took on our “home fun“ assignment at the commencement of their project and produced this wonderful spiral bound document, capturing their hopes and dreams. What resulted was nothing short of amazing… as you can read in their own words: “When our family had the privilege to build our dream home, we were driven by two core values: environmental sustainability and energy efficiency. We were immediately drawn to Architectural Resource who are recognized as award winning architects and genuine thought leaders on how to build responsibly, creatively, and cost effectively to harness the natural benefits of the earth and to be responsible to our shared planet and natural resources. From solar power generation, to geothermal cooling, to bird safe glass, every step of the process was guided by their expertise in environmental sustainability. The team at AR also took our family on an amazing learning adventure from the importance of “aging in place” design to the importance of new wall structures and interior/exterior insulation technologies to maximize cooling in summer and heating in winter, while also maximizing our financial investment over the long term. From the founding principal, to the entire professional team and interns, that culture of thought leadership and educational collaboration with their clients shines through in every interaction. They are simply brilliant, patient, and kind people to work with and I would highly recommend Architectural Resource as a true partner in any project, whether smaller scale renovations to bring out the true potential of your existing home or pursuing your dream to build from the ground up to reach the sky and fill your soul in new and inspiring ways.
