"My experience with them was outstanding, the details were excellent, they turned around the project in a short amount of time, I have nothing but a graceful experience, one of the best experience I ever had."

"They were excellent. They quickly made a draft that only needed 3 minor adjustments. The final product was exactly what I needed. They referred me to a structural engineer for review. The whole process took half of the time that they initially estimated. I would definitely use them again."

As a small practice, we can work hand-in-hand with you and deliver a bespoke design that meets your desires and takes into account the local environment impact. We apply our skills and knowledge in architecture to deliver high-quality and comfortable energy-efficient projects that meet the needs and expectations of the clients and the community. \n\n"Atelier", meaning "workshop" - a place where all kinds of ideas are crafted - perfectly defines the mindset of our design journey.

At R2 Studios Architecture, we help entrepreneurs open Residential Assisted Living (RAL) facilities by providing the architectural plans and compliance documents needed for licensing approval.\n\nWe focus exclusively on senior living design, which means we understand exactly what cities, the Department of Labor and Industry (DLI), the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), and the Metropolitan Council require for approval.\n\nOur process saves time, money, and stress:\n• Site Assessments – identify issues before inspections.\n• Architectural Plans – fully code-compliant drawings.\n• Evacuation Plans – meet MDH and life-safety standards.\n• Licensing Support – smoother approvals with fewer revisions.\n\nWe make the licensing journey easier so operators can focus on building successful care homes and serving their residents with confidence.

"I had a wonderful time working with Gabrielle. She is a talented and empathetic designer who listened to what I sought in my office remodel. She was mindful of my budget and offered great advice on repurposing a few essential items I already had. The final product was so lovely I could use my office as a recording space for a work video! Gabrielle made my office into an excellent space that my whole family enjoys. I also worked with her on my house purchase and was able to initially use her expertise to look over home inspections, view houses via video chat and help me make a decision on the feasibility of said homes. Gabrielle's knowledge was imperative in my home buying decision. Furthermore, she was also pivotal in a kitchen remodle that I did in my small cottage home, attached to my main house. She helped us think of a strategy for removing a partial wall and also how to best position, construct and install a kitchen island. Needless to say, Gabrielle is a one stop shop for any building, interior and consulting needs that anyone has while building, buying, renovating or decorating a home. I highly recommend her services!"

"Criterium Schimnowski Engineers is my go to company. I am a Realtor and have had many situations that require a structural engineer. They are ALWAYS professional and provide an unbiased evaluation and thorough report. I wouldn't use anyone else, in fact. They have saved deals for me and my clients while being extremely ethical. I strongly recommend them!"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Plumbline Builders on a major renovation of my home. I was very impressed with their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to customer satisfaction. Roger and his team (especially Jeff and Drew) were excellent at communicating with me throughout the project and kept me updated on their progress, answered all of my questions, and made sure that I was happy with every decision. They were also very flexible and accommodating, and they worked with me to stay within my budget. The quality of workmanship was also outstanding. The team was very skilled and experienced, and they took great pride in their work. My home looks amazing, and I’m happy with the results. Overall, I highly recommend Plumbline to anyone looking for a reliable and professional contractor. They’re a great team to work with!"
