EastWing Architects

We really enjoyed working with EastWing on our project, Sophomore Coffee. As our first commercial buildout, having a knowledgeable and reliable architect was incredibly vital to avoiding setbacks and finding creative solutions to the various issues we encountered. Evan brought his own passion while allowing us to maintain our vision. Professional, thorough, and polite, Evan is our guy!

Eastwing Architects, has been great to work with. Evan, worked with us and designed the drawings for our Café, and made a beautiful unique design for us. He was professional, courteous and very responsive. Evan, was patient with me and made as many changes I requested. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to other family and friends.

My wife Jenn and I still can't believe that the building we now live in, is our home! It perfectly captures our why and represents so much of who we are and more importantly who we desire to be. East Wing Architects, and Evan Wivell, are the reason behind that. Evan was present throughout our journey and served as an inspiring guru, the technical craftsman, the sherpa to get things done, and sometimes the laggard holding things up (have to be honest here). He was an excellent companion for building our home! In less abstract terms: East Wing has impeccable design taste. In the short few months we have been here (moved in Sept 2022)the home has already taken people's breath and words away, and we are still putting it together :) East Wing knows how to get a project done. They shepherded us through historic design review, city permits and an arduous construction process. East Wing is capable of building relationships. They connected and communicated with us, our builders, the tradesman and even our neighbors/friends throughout. East Wing embraces challenges. They navigated complex situations connect 150 year old structure to brand new construction. East Wing is human. Evan is grounded and easy to connect with. He is also building a business and at times slowed some of our ability to act. But he owned his shortcomings and never left us utterly hanging. If I have learned nothing else through our project it is that construction,particularly of something as emotionally filled as a home, is an incredibly complex process. It is hard to imagine a better person/firm to have along for the harrowing adventure than East Wing and Evan.
