We are very grateful for Bill and Jake and the team at TK’s hard work on our project! We had a great experience and are thrilled with the design and work they completed!

It’s such a pleasure working with TK Designs! Their extreme design talent and creativity brings our projects to life. First class all the way!

Very good customer interaction and flexibility

The team at TK was great to work with. One area for improvement would be setting clear timelines/dates for completion and ensuring these are kept or communicated if changes need to be made.

TK Design is our go-to architect for designing our single family homes.  They know how to mix creativity with practical design creating the perfect balance between style and functionality.  Every project we do together exceeds our expectations.

TK Design & Associates are some of the most talented group of folks around. From design all the way through to the finish blueprints. TK has been a tremendous asset for me. Their designs are fresh and the team at TK are great! It’s a really nice company to work with and they are a great partner in helping to grow my business. Very happy with my relationship with TK Design & Associates!!

My dream was to build a house where I could have my grandchildren have lots or room and their own space. The day I met the team, it was amazing. They sat down and listened and heard me. Took my vision and inspiration and went to work! This process was amazing, flawless and on time! This team really does show “care” They have been so responsive whenever I had a question, went above and beyond, always professional and went out of their way to make sure that we were happy and that our design process was flawless, which it was! Thank you, team! I will forever be thankful and will NEVER stop referring you!

My wife and I have engaged Mike at TK Design to bring us a concept for a beautiful English cottage style home on a great lot in Royal Oak. We couldn’t be more thrilled with the concept drawings and layout. We have some work to do but Mike understands what we want and is showing us exactly what we want to see! We can’t wait to take this home from concept to reality!

TK has been great to work with! Friendly staff that is very knowledgeable. Whether starting from scratch or looking for inspiration from one of their many existing plans – I would highly recommend them!

They were literally fantastic, start to finish.

What I can say about TK?! Having been part of the TK team over 10 years now I’ve really seen this company grow & evolve into the power house architectural design firm that it is. With homes & projects all over the country, we as a team have had the opportunities to learn & expand on our knowledge base to better serve all of our clients. From luxury mountain villas to tiny homes in the keys we have created many beautiful plans for our builders & home owners, winning top awards along the way. Being able to be a part of such an exciting team & work for a leader in the industry has been a privilege. TK not only goes above & beyond for their clients but also their employees to make sure we all have our best experiences!

Our experience working with the team at TK Design has always been exceptional! We have worked with them on several projects and have been satisfied with the results every time. Their design talents combined with construction expertise are among the best in the industry. We look forward to continuing this working relationship with TK Design!

Maintain your excellent customer service and great designs!

Great professional group of people to work with!

The TK Design team is outstanding! They go the extra mile to make sure every detail is covered. We could not be happier. They are top notch!

Todd and his team at TK Design wer incredible at the entire process of designing our house. Every step of the way their team helped my wife and I with great design choices using their thoughtful suggestions and creativity. True professional in the business as they helped us create our forever home, we cannot recommend them enough.

Yes… I am REALLY happy that Mike Miller recommended you to us. We are now correcting many ills in the home including some that I believe were caused by the previous owner’s design firm. We feel confident and happy with the quality of your company’s work.

Bill, Angie, and everyone we came across at your office were amazing and we absolutely LOVE the plan you created for us, the way you made us feel when entering your building, your attention to detail, just everything. We are rebuilding because we lost our home to a fire. You were the first step in rebuilding after our nightmare and you made it just a pleasant experience. I had a pretty crazy wishlist to fit into our square footage, and was definitely expecting to have to give up some of it. But you guys NAILED it and got me everything I dreamed of. I recommend you to everyone I know and would say we’d use you again, but we don’t plan to. Only because you designed our forever dream home! Five stars all day!

@tkhomedesign has been absolutely amazing though! They’re so quick to get me back revisions on items we are removing. This is important because we need the final plans to get the permits. I cannot recommend TK enough!

Bill Leiser, Jacob Whitting, Julie Drury, and Mike Latimer were always professional, eager to assist, and responsive. We recognized and valued the experience Bill and Mike brought to the table and valued their recommendations. Jacob created a beautiful 3D design that visually represented what we could only describe. And Julie treated us with kindness and hospitality each visit. This was a new experience for us, Bill, Jacob, Mike and Julie made us feel we were in good hands, although everyone we met were courteous. It was a pleasure meeting T&K, they are running a remarkable business. Congratulations and best wishes to everyone.

Todd and the entire Team at TK Design are simply remarkable! We’ve not met a more talented Team who understands and delivers authentic, timeless designs. They are a pleasure to work with and always exceed expectations.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with TK Design through my videography services, and I can confidently say they are one of the most innovative and collaborative firms I’ve worked with. Their commitment to excellence has been evident in every project we’ve done together. If you’re seeking an architectural firm that excels in creativity, communication, and client collaboration, I highly recommend working with TK Design!

I have worked on many of your guys design’s. I’ve probably framed 20 homes Todd and team designed. I’ve also brought clients there to get design’s done. You guys are top notch for sure!!

I worked with Annette on a commercial project. What started off as a small need turned into a major undertaking. Annette was professional, patient, efficient, and knowledgeable, and was truly a pleasure to work with.

TK Design team’s plans were some of my best-selling plans.  TK Design plans were efficient to build and offered layouts and features that helped them sell fast.

On the custom design front. My experience working with the TK Team was that of efficiency. Their process in working with builders and clients off-site worked flawlessly.  The depth of services that TK brings to the table from engineering to using various technology really helps streamline the process.

In our market, there can be a significant lag for local design services.  TK Design was always able to get to work timely to help our clients move through the design process efficiently.

TK Design has practical building knowledge and a real-world perspective that translates into plans that are buildable in the field, reducing, if not eliminating field adjustments = less costly errors and re-work.

It only takes one conversation with TK Design to see the expertise and passion they bring to their work.  What’s refreshing is this culture is throughout the entire organization. You can’t go wrong working with the TK team.

Quality and design from this company is amazing.they will go out of there way to give you a great drawing.expect the best.

Interaction with the TK team from beginning to end was always at a personal and professional level.  The team was patient and helpful in guiding us through the process.  Mike and Jake were great to work with.

Mike and Bill were wonderful to work with. They both listened to our wants and needs and implemented them into our design. Mike was great with making suggestions to adding additional rooms, changing room sizes, and making the footprint fit on our lot.
Mike and Bill were always prepared for our meetings and had the tools available to make changes while we were there.
Always promptly returned phone calls.
The experience was great! If we were to design a house again, we would come back to TK. Everyone at TK was friendly, responsive, and easy to work with.
Our experience with TK Designs was wonderful. Everyone was so easy to work with. We looked forward to our meetings not only because we were excited to see the design evolve but the friendliness of the team. Mike incorporated our suggestions as well as making suggestions for moving the laundry room and adding a family entrance and powder room to meet our requirements. Phone calls were always responded to quickly and professionally and deliverables were always on time. Mike explained the design process at our first meeting and what deliverables to expect and when. The process went smoothly. After we paid for our design and the builder required some changes, the changes were made immediately and new designs back in our hands in order for the build to go forward. We would gladly recommend TK Designs to anyone looking for an architect.

At TK Design we not only design great, award-winning homes that are cost effective to build, we specialize in making the workday and the Client’s experience enjoyable. There’s a great Team at TK Design that will offer a warm welcome for new Team Members and new Clients alike. We put as much into training our Team as we do in designing homes, and in the experience our clients have throughout the process. If you’re looking to design a new home, or to join a Team in the Residential Architecture profession, look no further. You’ll find everything you need here to fulfill your dreams whether engaging as a client or new Team Member. I’ve been in the Residential Design profession for over 20 years, and I couldn’t see myself fulfilling my career or designing your new home anywhere else.

When I first engaged with TK Design on my 1st two jobs under my new company, Grewal Homes, I had the pleasure to work with Eric Tiffin on setting the scope of services and signing the contracts. His preliminary questions covered items I didn’t initially think of that certainly removed any misunderstandings that would have come at a later date. He was frank and honest in managing my expectations, something that is not an industry standard unfortunately.

In addition, Angela Nuveman was extremely pleasant to work with, from start to finish! She’s personable, down-to-earth, professional and experienced as she worked with me to fine-tune my home plans. She was responsive on every question and change request I made and she did a phenomenal job corridinating with her team to complete the construction sets. I look forward to working with her again in the future.

As an employee at TK Home Design, I can confidently say that this is a company that truly values its employees and provides a remarkable work environment.

TK Design is a group of talented individuals who are not only highly skilled but also incredibly supportive. TK Home Design fosters a culture of collaboration, creativity, and continuous learning. I have had the opportunity to work on an array of projects with production homes, custom homes and elaborate renovations, and my contributions are always recognized and appreciated.

The leadership at TK Home Design is truly exceptional. They are approachable, supportive, and genuinely care about the success and happiness of their employees. The open-door policy encourages open communication, and ideas and suggestions are always welcomed and considered. It’s incredibly empowering to work in an environment where your voice is heard and valued.

I cannot recommend TK Home Design enough. It’s a company that not only delivers outstanding results for its clients but also prioritizes the growth and well-being of its employees. If you’re looking for a place where you can thrive professionally and personally, TK Home Design is the perfect fit. I am grateful to be a part of this incredible team, and I look forward to many more years of success and fulfillment here!

We have worked with TK for several years. They have been wonderful to work with! Their elevations and designs are always a big hit with our new home buyers. They are very easy to work with, and do a great job in providing quality plans in a very timely fashion. Their staff is very knowledgeable, helpful and diligent. I would highly recommend them to anyone. We plan on using their services into the future and we think you should do the same!

Working with TK Design has been an outstanding experience for our team. Their professionalism and expertise has been evident in every aspect of our collaboration. Darren and Renato are incredibly responsive, addressing our questions and concerns promptly, and routinely meeting deadlines. Their attention to detail and accuracy consistently delivers plans that meet our specifications. We highly recommend TK Design to anyone looking for a dedicated and skilled architect. We look forward to continuing our partnership in the future.

My work experience spans over 25 years from commercial to residential design in offices with as few as two employees to a design-build firm with over 100 employees. From this experience, I can confidently state that TK Design offers the best workplace culture. A company’s culture is its personality, derived from its leaders and their ability to inspire motivation, morale, and creativity within its team.

The leaders at TK Design support their employees throughout their time at the company. They have an established onboarding training, involving hands-on projects with multiple reference materials. Through this training, TK identifies an individual’s strengths and strives to encourage them to continue to grow and flourish within the company.

Throughout the year, everyone in the office enjoys participating in team-building activities. These activities get individuals out into the field to see their hard work come to life. Sometimes they include friendly in-house competitive games to increase engagement and break up a typical day. The positive actions experienced at TK Design helps to maintain and increase motivation to reach our client and personal goals.

So if you are seeking a career in architecture or looking for a new home / remodel, I highly recommend reaching out to TK Design!

Love it!  Best architect ever! 🙂

I have worked in the architecture, building and real estate industry for 25 years and a team like TK Design is hard to come by. TK design has a talented team of designers and architects that help bring a vision to reality through their designs and construction documents. They are efficient, flexible and easy to work with!

I have used several different architects over the last 8 years. There is no other firm that was as thorough or caring as TK Design. From the initial meeting to the last set of drawings provided – they answered all questions and produced exactly what they said they would produce on time. Every time. If you want the design of your house down right the first time. Call them. Today.

My experience with everyone was great specially with Mike latimer and Jacob Whtning

Steve, the girls, and I have been in our house for over a year already!  Time flies and we couldn’t have asked for a better house for quarantine times! You and your team gave us a wonderful design, and Mario and his teams made it come to life!

Eric Tiffin was a dream to work with. Many great ideas.

Overall experience was first class.

Once you use TK Design, you are a customer for life. The willingness to innovate and adapt with your personal business is unbeatable.

Very good firm, they’re diligent and knowledgeable about what they’re doing. They don’t intrude on your vision but still offer their expertise to improve upon it. When you need a revision they have a great turnaround time and sometimes there is no cost for this.

Swathy and her team absolutely knocked it out of the park with updating our renderings. TK Design was efficient, thorough and extremely professional in all of the questions, changes and work that go into updating a vast amount of home renderings. Thoughtful suggestions to details were made and accepted showing their ability to go above and beyond to see our renderings come to life. Highly Recommended.

TK Design offers professionalism, excellent customer service, and employees with amazing skills and talent. Creating a home design was a new experience for us…didn’t even know what questions to ask at times. We valued the experience that their employees brought to the table and felt comfortable in asking for recommendations knowing we would get a thoughtful response without imposition. It was evident that our vision was their vision. Our goals were theirs as well. They had patience, quick responses and moved us through the process efficiently. The final 3D walkthrough was seeing our dream come to life. We couldn’t ask for better service. Thank you TK!

If I could give 10 stars I would! TK Design brought our new build design to life! They were very professional, always quick to respond and were an absolute pleasure to work with. Look no further !

This past month we beat a custom builders quote by $400,000 on a single family home under a million, they are thrilled and we are probably making 2X the custom builders margins in the process. Also, this past week I got the final appraisal on my personal home, and it appraised for 70% more than I spent on it including the land! It’s insane how people can do this everyday and not understand the benefit of spending money on the front end of the project instead of 1000% on the backend.

The customer service team and design team were all very professional and knowledgeable about the project and interest of what we wanted for our home. I would definitely recommend TK to anyone who is looking to build

Excellent business and great customer service. From start to finish we are completely satisfied with our home design and build. Could not ask for more

Todd and the team did an exceptional job on our home.  We get tons of compliments on it and let them know TK did the design and Mike built it. I’ve seen TK signs out on sites when I’ve been on my walks in town. YAY!!! If I see an owner around, I tell them they won’t be disappointed…actually, they’ll be elated, with their new (not house) home. TK designs homes, not houses, and we are one of the recipients of TK’s talent. How lucky are we?

These guys are the real deal! Working for a homebuilder in north Texas, I’ve experienced several plan designers and architects. Todd & Katie have an incredibly talented team of professionals that know what they’re doing and stay with you every step of the way. They not only design amazing homes, but they explain ‘the why’ that goes into each one. They are a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend!

We personally enjoyed our relationship with Todd. He is very likeable, experienced, and continuously strives for complete customer understanding and satisfaction. I would not hesitate to hire TK Design for another house design.

Todd – Thank you for designing a home that we are extremely proud to call ours. You were able to integrate the ideas we initially had into a unique floor plan that is perfect for our family. The elevation that you designed was beyond the expectations we had before starting the project. We have been thoroughly impressed with the high level of service that you have brought to every phase of the design process. We will not hesitate to recommend TK Design to others. Thank you for designing our dream home.

Being in the building business for over 20 years, I have worked with many architects on various styles and sizes of homes.  Our expectations are very high and we are sometimes very demanding.  Todd and the TK team have exceeded our expectations on all of the projects. It is a great feeling to know you have a professional architecture firm that not only designs a beautiful home and listens to our customers, but also keeps our customer’s budget in mind through the entire project.

Every experience we have had with TK Design has been exceptional. Their design group is very talented, and their responsiveness is unmatched.

It is an ABSOLUTE pleasure working behind your TEAMS plan sets. They are the BEST I have ever worked with in 30 years. No joke. Easiest plans to estimate & get said estimates to meet end invoicing. Makes a HUGE difference.

Todd – we appreciate our new home more than you can ever know. We are very proud of it. We, of course, will be recommending your firm.

Every experience I have had working with Todd and Katie has been fantastic. They go above and beyond the call of duty on a regular basis. Todd’s construction experience is such an asset in understanding site construction related to print design. They are extremely talented and work fabulously with my clients as well. I feel confident when referring my clients to them that they will be ecstatic with their experience and the results of their dream home.

Todd, my wife Julie and I are elated with the home that you designed with us. You were able to bring our vision to life. As an architect myself, I also appreciate the great detail in your drawings. Our home is coming together beautifully in construction. I would highly recommend you to anyone in need of architectural services.

I am nearing completion of my second project with TK Design. My experience with them has been nothing but positive. Todd’s talent in design is exceptional. Their plans have been completed in a timely fashion and with accuracy. I would highly recommend TK Design, and, in fact, already have.

We are excited…that we have formed a strategic partnership with TK Design, an award winning design firm known for their unique design concepts and their high level of customer satisfaction. TK Design has an industry wide reputation for creating distinctive elevations that complement the natural features of the existing terrain. The TK Design team was selected after extensive research and consideration of many qualified candidates…..Todd’s extensive knowledge of the building trade is a result of time he served as the President of Delcor Homes, a building/development company.

It is my pleasure to recommend the services of TK Design & Associates. During the past three years, our experience working with Todd and Katie has been fantastic. Todd’s background in construction has been an asset to our working relationship and his “muddy shoes” approach to construction blends nicely with our lean building process. DSLD Homes & TK Home Design & Associates both share the same type of mission statement, which is to offer top-notch workmanship while striving for customer satisfaction. I would not hesitate to retain their services again and would recommend them to anyone looking for top quality designs within any budget.

The balance of your creative talents and real world building experiences are a winning combination for any building company…I enjoyed developing the concepts for the Charleston Park project with your firm, and believe that the line-up developed will be the basis of our success. These unique home plans are not only first class aesthetically, but also give our home buyers a great living condition…

Todd – I loved the prints from the moment I saw them. I lived in Europe for a time growing up and I definitely experience a reminiscence of the homes there, particularly in France – when I look at the elevation on our soon-to-be new home. Thank you for the job well done!

The house that you designed for us (we call it the Brittany) is very popular with our sales team and we have sold several too. Just thought you would want to know.

Todd and Katie Hallett share our company’s mission of differentiation through high style, unique yet functional design, and exceptional service.

We have always had a positive working relationship with TK Design. Todd’s talent in design has helped us to win several awards including “Community of the Year”. In addition to this they are very responsive and, because of their vast experience in the building industry, they understand our needs as it relate to cost, speed, and accuracy. It is truly a pleasure to do business with them.

Of all the 100’s of decisions I’ve made while building my house, the best decision-by far-was to start with TK Design to design my house. As my house finishes up, I realized how incredibly important it is to start with a great design. If you start with a mediocre or bad design, no amount of carpentry (or other trades) will fix it. I’ve received many, many compliments on my house, and it’s not even finished yet! 

TK and the team were also great after the fact (well after the design was complete). I had a few important follow-up questions half-way through the build, and they were quick to help out. Honestly, I couldn’t have been happier working with TK.

We utilized Tk Design’s services for our Deer Run project of affordable single family homes in Genesee county. They have excellent design skills including efficient floor plans, cost effective details and appealing elevations. Services were performed timely and at a reasonable fee……they were a pleasure to work with and we eagerly await our next project with them.

TK Design & Associates provides home plans that are economical to build yet contain the features that homeowners desire. The team at TK has been quick to respond to requests for variations on our current designs, and they always deliver the final plans on time. In addition, TK works well with our customers, and they are professional and proactive when our trade partners recommend changes to a plan.
Redstone Homes has a reputation for excellence in the single-family home and condominium industry. In addition, we consistently receive high marks when it comes to customer satisfaction. Therefore, we are happy to partner with TK Design because they hold themselves to the same high standards to which our happy homeowners have become accustomed.

As an architect, coming from the East coast, my wife and I are elated that you turned our design into a home we can be proud to pass on to future generations. I would highly recommend anyone to utilize your services.

Todd, I have had great success with the Piedmont plan that I just bought from you. I have sold four already. The first one that I built I had budgeted like one of my previous plans from another architect. Your house came in $15K less. I am thrilled!

Please feel free to use us as a reference at any time. We have enjoyed working with you on projects. Your renderings, and detail are excellent and you are always very accommodating. We have appreciated the help you have offered us in marketing our projects as well. We look forward to working together in the future.

We were recommended to your firm by our builder and couldn't be happier that he did. From the very first meeting, Todd welcomed us in and made us feel right at home. That is so very important being that we have waited nearly 30 years to build our dream home. The friendly, relaxed and extremely professional way in which Todd helped us through the design process couldn't have been more perfect. He listened to our ideas and presented us with alternatives that were right in line with what we envisioned our dream home would be in Hidden Lake. The elevation he conceptualized for us is truly outstanding. Todd's vision has created something unique and a home that will stand out yet remain cohesive the the rest of the development. The entire staff is so warm and welcoming and Darren was amazing to be partnered with. We are thrilled with the final design outcome and look forward to getting construction under way. We would highly recommend TK Design to anyone looking to maximize the potential of their site with a unique and thought out design with a staff that is truly exceptional.

Todd has incredible talent at designing floor plans — he can fit the most amazing floor plans in the smallest envelopes! — better than any designer I’ve ever worked with! And on top of that — the floor plans he creates are very functional — and on top of that — the elevations turn out remarkably beautiful as well as very buildable! I’ve worked with all kinds of the so called best architectural talent and found that some architects are good at floor plans and some are decent at elevations but few are good at both…

Todd and all the staff are an amazing group to work with…they made me realize there are no silly questions!! I have worked on several projects with TK Design and look forward to so many more to come!! Thank you Todd, and to all of your remarkable personnel!
