When we decided to do a significant expansion of our home, we chose Richard Leggin Architects to develop the design that captured our vision. The result was simply spectacular. They not only brought our ideas to life, they greatly improved on them. They developed a plan that added architectural beauty and symmetry, enhanced natural lighting, and increased efficiency in the use and flow of the space. Each new or expanded room has elegant details that add to its unique character, such as arched doorways, stone tiled flooring, beautiful wood trim, and an entire wall of double-paned windows that captures the beauty of our trees and yard. The plan completely opened up our kitchen area to maximize cozy interactions among family members as easily as it accommodates larger groups when entertaining. The cooking and food preparation areas are well laid out and cater to the busy and efficient cook. Within the new footprint we proposed they found ways to add new spaces for a home office, a screened porch, an exercise room and an enlarged game room. The new exterior blends in beautifully, making it look as if it were all part of the original house. Finally, Dick Leggin and his colleagues worked seamlessly with the contractors throughout the process, making sure that everything that was envisioned in the planning process became reality in the construction phase. We couldn’t be happier, and we most highly recommend Richard Leggin Architects for your home design or expansion planning.
