Building Designers in Georgetown, CO

“Thank you Jaron for having the patience to make sure we were completely happy with the design of our basement. We appreciate it!”

“We’ve worked with Eric on several different jobs. He is always very professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He is very easy to work with, and provides outmatched service and skill. He is the only engineer we will use.”

“Our firm - and I personally - have worked intensively with KL&A for over ten years, on projects ranging from highly-expressive and detailed custom homes to large commercial projects with budgets from $25- to $100-million and a host of design and administrative challenges to be navigated. Through it all we have found them to be knowledgeable, diligent, cooperative and creative. Time and again, they have proposed balanced solutions that preserve the intended design qualities while making fabrication and construction more realistic than it might at first have appeared. We rely upon their advice, just as we know we can rely upon them to deliver completed work as committed. When tried-and-true materials and configurations are not up to the job, their staff - and especially founding Principal Greg Kingsley, PhD. – rise to the challenge. On a recent museum project, this involved engaging with overseas specialists to develop an innovative variety of plywood, have initial samples produced and tested, and integrating the results to realize a truss design that would not otherwise have been feasible. On another project they were able to reduce the cost of the building structure by several million dollars thru changes to shear wall and column locations, making the geometry more regular and efficient, with minimal impact on the architectural layout. A full-story truss on that same project allowed program requirements to be met without adding more floor area to the building, again saving the owner a substantial sum. Finally, KL&A’s ability to engage in the shop drawing and fabrication processes provides our clients (the building owners) with new options to maintain quality while controlling costs. KL&A is a valued member of our preferred project team, for a majority of the projects we execute.”
