“I worked with Michael on the design for a remodel/addition to my family home. He had great ideas, responded to my queries quickly and thoughtfully, and was very knowledgeable in person. Michael finished my plan drawings quickly and exemplary.”

“Frank Cheney has designed several alterations to my historic farmhouse and has made a tremendous difference in the outcome of each of the projects. He has an uncanny imaginative approach to space and can visualize potential solutions that would never occur to me. The farmhouse required a lot of creativity and Frank Cheney brought that to the table. He also worked with me on the design of a studio, created from a 100 year old barn, rendering my very ordinary ideas extraordinary by knowing how to rearrange the components to be cohesive, convenient and beautiful. He is particularly tuned in to extremely subtle issues of proportion often missed by lesser practitioners that make his designs standouts.”

“My husband and I live in a beautiful location on the Haw River and wanted to remodel part of our home to take advantage of the views and river access. We entertain frequently and wanted more room in the right places and also good flow from room to room. I am an artist, and my husband enjoys woodworking. We wanted spaces that reinforced our aspirations. We decided to add a den with a wood stove, a screened in porch with cat walk to our large back deck, a new kitchen, an art studio, and a workshop. To keep costs down, we hoped to use significant floor space in a poorly-used two car garage. We had some design ideas for the finished product, but mainly, we knew what we wanted to achieve in the way we live in our house and on our property. We looked for an architect with imagination and with good taste who could pull it all together for us. Alicia Ravetto was the perfect choice for our project. She immediately understood what we were after, and she designed spaces that creatively achieved all our criteria. She was very organized in how she handled the developing plans. We could look back and see how we moved from step to step. This was important in constantly bringing us back to the goals we set at the very beginning. Alicia met deadlines and was fun and honest to work with throughout the project. There were significant cost overruns, but this is because we were so happy with what we saw happening, we asked for more and more. We are thrilled with the outcome. It is wonderful living in our "new" custom home.”
