| "This
is a strong and enthusiastic letter of recommendation for
architect Scott Gilbride. Here’s why we think you
should consider him when making your decision:
1. He is very
creative in a wide variety of styles…from craftsman
to lodge-style and modern to Tuscan villa…and many
more.
2. He is sensitive to the site and surrounding environment.
Your neighbors will be proud to live next to your home.
3. He listens to your requirements and then improves on
your thinking with his own innovative ideas. Ultimately
he builds the house that you want, not the one that he
wants.
4. He is a “builder’s architect.” He
is very knowledgeable about the details of construction,
so his plans can be easily implemented by your builder.
5. He meets his commitments. All stages of our plan were
completed on time.
6. He has excellent contacts with the City of Bend, so
our project located on Mirror Pond moved smoothly through
the planning process with no delays or objections.
7. He is able to create a plan that meets your budget
requirements. Our home was finished slightly under budget.
8. He is always available when you need him. He returns
calls promptly and follows up as agreed upon.
We have built
several homes from scratch, and this was the easiest and
most satisfying of all. We’d be happy to speak with
you if you have any questions."
