Mathison | Mathison Architects

Our experience with Mathison and Mathison Architects (MMA) has been exceptional in working with them to design and construct a Michigan second home for our family. I am a real estate investor and developer and have worked with many architects over decades and I put MMA at the very top tier. They are smart, capable, considerate, talented, attentive to detail, have a clear design philosophy, work well with contractors and work hard to discern what we wanted in a home and delivered on objectives. The process started with a detailed analysis of how we live and they masterfully translated that analysis in to an extraordinarily designed home. MMA inquired in detail, they listened, they interpreted what we wanted and thoughtfully designed an extraordinary home for us, which we are loving. They delivered on their representations and they do what they say they will do. Every person we encountered at MMA is smart, considerate, talented and is attentive to details. MMA worked well with our contractors throughout the construction cycle. There is no aspect of this project that could have gone better than it did. I highly recommend MMA and look forward to working with them again in future projects.

Luxury or low key, MMA will elevate your living experience with their team approach to design. Their attention to every detail; lines, materials, floor plan, lighting, site placement and beyond was impeccable. We love our home and regularly find things we appreciate that we didn’t even think of asking for. It’s hard to leave the place they designed for us. And beyond that, they are a pleasure to work with. You won’t regret hiring MMA for your next project.

The Mathison team was more than my wife and I could have hoped for. They helped us with design ideas, but they also listened to our ideas and helped made them work, and they had creative storage ideas for our open communal space. They even helped with ideas about sustainability and energy efficiency as we were trying to be the first house to achieve a "Living Build Challenge" home in Grand Rapids, MI. Their team came out and took accurate measurements of our old falling apart house from 1896, and they quickly came back with the drawings. The house turned out beautifully!
