72 is creative and fun to work with! Maura knew what questions to ask and how to find the answers we needed to plan our new office. I am excited to relocate to the new building with a bold and fresh new home for our business that will really stand out for our staff and our clients. Thank you!

When I set out last year last year to realize my dream of creating a fast-fine eatery concept in an urban setting, I was very selective with whom I wanted to work to undertake such a personal and professional project. I am thrilled to have engaged 72Architects! All the firm members contributed to realizing this unique and amazing space and everyone was a pleasure to work with. While I had some very concrete ideas about design and space, 72Architects added valuable insight and design ideas and I feel that together we have upleveled the streetscape of Downtown Danbury. Thank you 72Architects - I couldn't have done it without you! Andrea Gartner, Owner Pour Me Coffee & Wine Cafe Danbury, CT

From the beginning, Maura and her team have been instrumental with the Women's Center project of building a new residential facility, Maura actively listened to staff & our Board of Directors in creating a floor plan that would meet the diverse needs of our employees and clients. She understands our financial limitations and goal of creating an efficient building. She works seamlessly with the City of Danbury -- meeting with town planners, zoning and the Mayor's office. We are part way through our project, and look forward to completing it with seventy2architects. Maura is an immense pleasure to work with. She is a true professional -- efficient, smart, straight-forward, very friendly, and creative. We are lucky to have her on our team!

We have used seventy2architects on 6 facilities projects over the last 6 years from renovating a small 7k SF sales branch to the complete makeover of an old 70k SF warehouse that was converted to a modern distribution center. In every case the work has been innovative, sensitive to cost and function, and reflect the modern look we like in our branches. We will continue to use them on all our facilities projects.

Maura and her team have been brilliantly renovating our small public library building. They have kept the charm and warmth of the original building while updating, and upgrading the functionality and furnishings. Pieces of furniture have been thoughtfully repurposed saving money that can be spent elsewhere. We are midway through our project and I look forward to 'Phase 2.' I would unreservedly recommend 72 Architects to anyone who asked. Mary Whatley, Fairchild-Nichols Memorial Library, Trumbull.

i am an active developer in new york city but worked on a project in danbury with 72 architects. Having worked with many big name firms in my career, "72" exceeded my expectations on all counts. They were supremely professional, very responsive both in the design stage and to issues during construction and had a strong design sense but were willing to meld that with my vision for the project. They also have excellent relationships with local builders and suppliers which was key to getting the project done on time and on a budget which is a rarity in this world. All in all, strongest recommendation!

Maura has designed and facilitated two projects for me, one business and the other residential. In both instances she was consistently professional, creative, available and worked with me to bring my ideas to fruition. I would highly recommend Maura and the seventy2architects team. Thanks, Judy

I wholeheartedly highly endorse seventy2architects! Our organization is working with them on a project that has shown the depth and breadth of their knowledge on a wide range of areas, from land remediation through design and build! Their guidance and expertise has been invaluable! From our very first meeting with them, we knew we were in the right hands and every step of the way those feelings have been validated! We couldn't be happier clients!

Great company! Their team of architects enthusiastically provided concepts and plans for transforming a small drab lake cottage into a modern open floor plan with a second floor that exceeded expectations. After an initial requirements gathering interview it was no time until we were seeing draft concepts and sample materials so I was very impressed with their timeline and level of quality.

Could not have asked for better Company to work with on the design and layout of our firehouse. A very detailed group of people who get the job done right… the first time. Creative and Inspired Architects to work with and very good management.

Seventy2architects are wonderful! Having worked on several projects with the firm I can say, without reservation, that they are utmost professionals, offer outstanding architectural design work, expert project leadership, great communication and a "can do" attitude! Please drive by the Charles Ives Birthplace, on Mountainville Avenue in Danbury, Maura Newell Juan and her firm worked tirelessly to guide the first phase of this historic house restoration- a testament to her skills and the skills of the firm!

I have had the pleasure of working with Seventy2Architects since before they were Seventy2Architects! I met the owners when I worked for them at their home. When I learned what they did I picked their brains about a building I wanted to build on a piece of property I had just acquired. The barn/office/apartment, 2200 square feet in all, is gorgeous, functional, continues to meet the needs of my growing business and produces revenue for me. I couldn’t be happier. It looks 100 years old, same age as my home, and no one believes me when I tell them I built it in 2006. -But that’s not all. My particular municipality had very stringent regulations for this “accessory structure” Had I drawn plans myself, or hired another firm, I never would have been able to build anything this size. Being represented by such a competent architecture firm, we were able to ‘push it’ quite a bit by using “dormers” to get around size restrictions on the second floor. It’s hard to explain as a layperson, but trust me. They really came through. Maura’s knowledge of the way these regulations are worded alone earned every penny of the very reasonable fees they charged. I have worked with them a half dozen times since and recommend them every chance I get.
