Rand designed our dream home just perfectly after listening to our requirements and 'like to have's. He is easy to work with and extraordinarily creative. Best of all: the house was constructable from the super-complete plans.

As a Custom Home Builder (Wood Works Unlimited, Inc) who likes to build Detailed, Unique and True Custom Homes I Value the experience and details Rand brings into each of his designs. I have built numerous plans that Rand has designed and each one has the details and design on paper to make the build process much easier. When my daughter approached me and wanted to build a house, without a 2nd thought I chose Rand as the Architect for the project. I Can Highly recommend Rand as an Architect in the Colorado Springs and surrounding areas.
