Dave Sloan, Sloan Construction

“Greg is very easy to get along with and listens to what his clients have to say. When you work with Greg, you will get someone in tune with you. Best of all, you will work directly with THE GUY. Clients do not get passed off to another team member or pushed to the side. Each project fits the budget, and Greg will not be an ego or try to build his ‘opus’ on the client’s dime.”

Christopher Kreider and Amy Hayes, Clients

“The extensive questionnaire we completed at the beginning of our engagement with Greg was very thorough and helpful. It led to a ‘mind meld’ and gave Greg a deep understanding of our vision. That exercise gave our new space an incredible connection to nature and honored our very specific need to make something small feel spacious.”

“Greg’s philosophy is key to how he sees his work and creates the spaces that he does. Architects create beautiful spaces… that is the job! But HOW Greg does it through a deep spiritual approach, client listening, and outside the box thinking is really crucial.”

“Greg is professional, personable, practical and has a strong reputation and good relationship with local municipalities. He is open to finding answers or referring others if he doesn’t know the answer. I found him to be an excellent communicator who met all expectations. I have been very impressed with Greg from start to finish.”

Dave Sloan, Sloan Construction

“Greg is extremely likable and would definitely win a Boulder architect popularity contest. He is so easy to get along with, which is fantastic. Many architects have a ‘God-complex,’ but Greg does not fit into that mold. As a builder, I look to the architect to be my heavy – a person I really rely on throughout a project. Greg’s knowledge of codes, architectural standards and energy ratings is exceptional.”

Eldon Shaffer, Heartwood Builders

“Greg is uniquely collaborative. He fosters collaboration with clients, builders, sub contractors, the city… everyone involved in a project. He’s a respectful, understanding person who appreciates all sides of a construction project along with his own, which is very unusual in the business. If Greg were to move away or leave architecture it would really be a loss to the Boulder area.”

Tim Hattrup & Heather Leigh, Clients

“Greg is a very personable and thoughtful architect. He took our small, not-quite-working home and made it beautiful and functional. Greg saw how to put into our home elements that we wanted but couldn’t describe or do for ourselves. He can accommodate unusual designs, wish lists, and complex needs. The entire process of collaborating with him was very intuitive and visually creative.”
