“Constructive Solutions, Inc., completed a beautiful LEED certified home, shop and artist's studio for us in 2010. We are so pleased, not only with the craftsmanship and special considerations in our working relationship, but with the follow up service regarding the workings and settling issues of a new home. Deadlines were met within a reasonable timeframe and communications on change orders were explained in detail. As an artist, it was exciting to be able to see my ideas become reality under Robs direction and my husband's engineering requirements were carried out with great detail. Rob listens well, is a genius of a builder with many innovative, sustainable ideas in his homebuilding ethic and is willing to think out of the box in architectural detailing. We could not be more satisfied. We would be glad to provide photos for your consideration. Larry and Collette Hops”

“I was the interior designer on this project and worked closely with their project managers and the client. I did most of the work long distance, via the internet, so good communication was essential. Their staff was excellent and the quality of construction exceeded expectations. The resulting project was published in the Big Sky Journal and won an ASID Award (MN chapter). Jerry Locati's style is mainly Western/Rustic, but I'm sure his talents go beyond that and his capabilities are broad. I would recommend them with the highest possible ratings!”

“Andrew Brechbuhler at Brechbuhler Architects was chosen after an extensive search for an architect to design the remodel of our mountain home in 2009-2010. He displayed a extensive knowledge of construction and design that enabled our project to be completed on time and on budget and through his creativeness we were able to have our dream mountain home. We live far away from the project and Andrew became our eyes during the construction. His supervision and eye for detail were invaluable during the construction phase.”

“Matt Faure and his capable team nailed it. Faure Halvorsen designed our "Old Faithful" style Big Sky home and made us feel like were their most important client. Susie & Brent Porlier”

“Candace Miller and her team designed the house of our dreams. They listened carefully to what we wanted and created all of that and more. They were respectful of our budget and the project was completed 2 months early! They integrated well with the construction crew and interior designer and we never felt overwhelmed by the details. We have and continue to recommend them to anyone who is looking for the highest quality result in the western vernacular.”

“Brett has been great to work with over a number of project within our business the last several years. He is thorough and does a good job of balancing cost vs benefit on important decisions. We'll be using him again in the future.”

“We live in a home that is more fabulous than we could have ever imagined. After interviewing between fifteen and twenty architectural firms in the western states, we were lucky to work with Tammy and Anne of Frog Rock Design on our new construction project. Sustainable building and living are important to us. We wanted architects who had a similar philosophy and green building design experience. We found a wonderful partnership in Frog Rock Design. Tammy and Anne listened to us closely about our life style, and our ideas about how our home would feel to us on it's completion. They helped us prioritize our wishes and goals. They were enthusiastic and involved. They helped us through the design process, and helped the project stay on track. The end result is a home that is filled with light. We gravitate to each room and space. Construction details leave us feeling good about getting so much of our energy passively from the sun. After nearly one year of living in the house, we wouldn't change a thing! We could not have asked for a better architect, a better working relationship, or a better end result, and would embark on another building project with Frog Rock without hesitation.”

“Quite possibly the premier architectural firm in North America for Log and Stone/Rustic Elegant and Alpine genre architecture. Creative, pushes the envelope from a design, technical and creative standpoint. Works well in all areas of the design/building process.”

“Ed Ugorowsky/ Design Partnership designed my wife’s and my home in the Bridger Mountains of Montana. Ed was easy to work with, incredibly creative and his plans were incredibly accurate for the builder. Our home has been published in several notable magazines. I can’t say enough good things about our experience working with Ed.”
