TESTIMONIALS

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Steve numerous times providing his company with Building Code, and Building Permit consultation. Steve has a keen eye for design & detail, and possesses a great understanding of Zoning and Building Codes. Steve provides his clients with highly detailed, articulated construction documents.”

“Steve brought our vision to reality. He is knowledgeable in all facets of architecture/design and specifically building in Chicago. He guided us through potential problems before they became an issue. He was a great asset in dealing with the city and zoning as well as selecting and qualifying our builder, and cost analysis/justification with the proposals.”

“Very professional and detail oriented. Was a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him for your house addition needs.”

“We began working with Steve on our first home in 2004. We are now working on our third project together. Steve has created stunning homes for us while keeping our budget in mind and working within the tight constraints of a city site. Steve is easy to communicate with and can take our ideas and incorporate them into our design. He clearly understands how to blend creativity with the building codes. He is available during the construction process and works well with the contractors on site, to be sure that our vision becomes reality.”

“When it came time for us to renovate our outdated dysfunctional kitchen we didn’t know where to begin. Besch Design was recommended to us by a friend so we gave Steve a call. He came over and after the initial meeting with him and his wife Susan we knew we wanted to work with them. He took our vision and turned our kitchen into a space we love to cook, entertain, and be together as a family.”

“Steve Besch helped us with the design of our completely renovated kitchen and addition of a mudroom. Our intention was just to renovate our kitchen. However, Steve had great ideas of how to completely redesign the space and include a much needed mudroom. His attention to detail and ability to clearly communicate his ideas sets him apart from his peers. He listened to what we wanted however made creative suggestions without being too pushy. His experience and knowledge is evident. I would highly recommend him.”

“Steve Besch of Besch Designs made himself available for consultation prior to the purchase of my home which was constructed in 1929. The home had had several renovations over the years that were disconnected and poorly thought out. He opened up the dark home and filled it with light. The gut rehab of the home revealed structural issues caused by the poor past renovation. Steve was able to identify and solve these issues in rather unique and effective ways. He provided multiple options for each room and found the perfect fit for our lifestyle and design tastes. Though it required many changes throughout the process because of issues discovered during renovations and our evolving change in thought he never hesitated to provide new options. Steve worked closely with the General Contractor and was always available. He was very involved until the project was completed. His professionalism, attention to detail, quick response and pleasant disposition made the process of home renovation go smoothly that created our dream home. I highly recommend Besch Design.”

“Steve came highly recommended by a friend who hired him for their own home remodel. His professionalism was evident from the beginning, He returns all calls and emails within a short time frame. His knowledge of home architecture and ability to transform his client’s thoughts and visions to reality are impressive. Steve is very attentive to his client’s perception of their project. He is always on time for meetings and his discussion of your project is filled with both honesty and pride of his mission towards the final product.”

“Steve was great to work with. He was both knowledgeable and creative and we were very happy with the final design. One of my favorite things about Steve was his lightning quick responses and quick follow through. He was always available if we had questions or needed to meet up. I would highly recommend Steve if you are looking for a highly qualified architect who will get things done quickly for you. Our contractor even made a comment that his designs are great to work off of b/c they are so thorough and easy to work with.”
