Showrooms Q & A

What were the benefits of working with MA+KE Architects?

The insight provided from their years of experience designing and building showrooms was extremely valuable. We had our ideas based on our own history of selling windows and doors, but getting that outside viewpoint based on their experiences really helped ensure we were making great decisions for our new space.

How was the level of communication during the design process?

MA+KE was very responsive to all of our inquiries and promoted regular meetings during the initial phase of design. The technology used to communicate was perfect.

What were your thoughts on the design process?

It went very smoothly. The team at MA+KE is so easy to work with!

Do you feel like we understood your project goals and captured them in a way that truly represents what Big L Windows & Doors is all about?

I think the MA+KE team did a great job of finding out first what our goals were with the project and from that point on, it was a breeze.
