Reviews of Keith Mueller Architecture (Architect)

Carla Talarico

We used Keith for an addition on the back of our Prairie Village (Kansas) home and we loved his design. He has such a eye for what fits with our old Cape Cod. Easy to work with and very creative. I would use him anytime we work on our home.

Keith states that the creation of architecture can be a magical process, yet there was nothing magical about our experience with Keith Mueller. My wife and I contracted with Keith to prepare preliminary designs for a new addition to our home. We were introduced to Keith on the recommendation of the contractor we were working with to build the new addition. In our initial conversation with Keith, we shared our ideas, requirements and objectives for the new addition. Keith later returned with three designs; however, only one of the three designs met our agreed upon scope and no design incorporated the ideas we discussed during our initial conversation. During our meeting he was argumentative, unprofessional, and was uninterested in finding a way to incorporate our ideas into the design for our house. Keith often responded to our feedback by simply stating, “You can’t do that.” He was not interested in a collaborative design process or discussing what compromises might be required to achieve our objectives. In the end, Keith did not fulfill the terms of the agreement we signed, yet he demanded full payment and threatened to take us to small claims court if we didn’t pay the balance due immediately. Rather than risk being sued, we ultimately paid the full $2,000 yet are no closer to having a workable design than when we started.

Keith's design was creative and exactly what we were needing for our project. He helped us utilize the minimal space we had to work with in our house.

We have had the pleasure of working with Keith on two separate projects for our home—a front porch addition and a kitchen remodel—and, in both cases, were incredibly impressed with his design work. It was important to us to hire someone who would respect the historical character of our house and neighborhood, yet who was able to incorporate new design elements and a fundamental understanding of the needs of a modern family into the plans. Keith listened to our ideas and came back with designs that blew us away. His concepts were innovative, cohesive and infinitely more functional than anything we could have imagined. When it became time to begin the build process for these projects, Keith went above and beyond the norm and was more than willing to make himself available to our contractor to discuss and help resolve any questions that arose along the way. The end result of his design work has been a joy for our family. Each time we pull into our driveway, we are still struck by how welcoming our home now feels thanks to Keith’s vision. Our favorite comment about the new kitchen layout was: “It’s amazing how much space you added without adding any space!” And the compliments on both projects from friends and folks in the neighborhood just keep coming! Keith is talented, dedicated and a true professional (in addition to being one of the nicest fellows you will ever meet) – we look forward to working with him on our next home improvement endeavor.

We have done two project with Keith Mueller, a full upstairs bed and bathroom renovation and a complete kitchen remodel. Both times, Keith has sat down with us to find out what was important for us in the design and how we would like the space to be used. He provided us several options, and provided us new ideas and perspectives that we hadn't considered. He took the time to explain different aspects of the design based on his experience and what he feels may work the best, but never pressured us into a decision. We were able to discuss the plans and even mixed and matched aspects from different ideas before we came up with our final plan. We have been thrilled with the way both projects turned out and appreciate Keith's availability during construction to help with unexpected items. We would definitely recommend him and will use him on our next remodeling project.

Lynne Bock Relationship: Client Project Date: October 2016 Project Price: $50,000 - $100,000 We needed an architect to help us build-out an unused attic and make it a livable "bonus room," bathroom and walk-in storage/linen closet. Keith was timely, informative and confident in a low-key kind of way, He was more than happy to share references and let us visit other remodels that he had done. And, most importantly, Keith was a professional; he was thorough, timely and patient when explaining and answering our questions, We would highly recommend him. February 1, 2018

We have worked with Keith on two projects now and been extremely happy both times. The first was a significant kitchen/great room remodel. Keith not only listened to our ideas and incorporated them into a design, but also gave us some perspectives we hadn't thought of. He was always very professional, responsive and timely with all the work he provided us. Our next project is a three season porch/room that will be started later this year.

We hired Mr. Mueller to draw up plans for a screened-in porch for us. He was very easy to work with and had great ideas that we had not thought of. His plans were very well done and had all the necessary info that our contractor needed. I would use him again for any other project we have and recommend him to others.

Keith is fabulous to work with! We have built several major home remodels for our customers that Keith has designed. He has amazing architectural visions and listens to what the homeowner needs and wants. Currently, we are starting to build a new addition on a vintage home: The new room addition's roof design, and the way it intersects the existing house, had us stumped! Keith solved this issue by designing a new gable for the addition that compliments the original house design. Keith is great at contemporary design as well as traditional homes. I highly recommend him to design any project for your home!

Keith did the complete set of plans for our remodelling project. His ideas were great, price was fair and completed the drawings on time.
