June 06, 2025Underwhelming Experience with Overpriced Ego Trip
I'm still trying to process the disappointment I felt after working with Bell+Associates Architecture. As someone who's passionate about sustainable design, I was initially drawn to their high-performance home principles and commitment to energy efficiency. However, the reality was far from impressive. The team, led by Jim Bell, seemed more concerned with showcasing their 'innovative design' than actually listening to our needs and preferences. We were constantly being pushed towards more expensive options, with the justification being that it would 'increase the property value' or 'make a statement.' Newsflash: just because you can design a fancy house doesn't mean you should, especially when it comes at the cost of practicality and comfort. Our custom home design ended up feeling like a vanity project, with unnecessary features that served no purpose other than to feed the architect's ego. The final product was not only over budget but also failed to deliver on the promised 'timeless' and 'functional' space. If you're looking for a firm that prioritizes their own creative expression over your actual needs, then Bell+Associates might be the right choice. But if you want a team that genuinely cares about creating a space that works for you, keep looking. One star from me, and that's being generous.
