Colin Smith Architecture & Design

Colin and his team are excellent architects.
They did a 2,500 sq/​ft addition for me and couldn’t have been happier with how it turned out. The space, layout and flow was excellent. They maximized the small space I had available to use.
Their office is right next to the building department and he is well known in town. He knew the building department, zoning bylaws and how to navigate the process. He helped shepherd the project through the Historic District hearing and Zoning Board hearing.
Unlike the other reviewer, who clearly was a mad neighbor and did not use his service, the house she referred to was 15,000sq/ft, not 9,000. It seems she is the one who does not have a good sense of size! This is Lexington, expect over sized houses!

Needed an architect fast after escrow finally closed on a loft in the south end. Had located Colin Smith through Service Magic, a professional contractor resource for build projects, to design a 2 bdrm + master bath addition. I needed a 1 week turnaround to get permits before the contractor went on a short vacation and to submit plans for HOA approval.
Colin Smith and his colleague, Ian Hurlburt delivered big time. Sure it helped that I had a draft plan ready & selected a contractor with a detailed estimate. But that doesn’t take from the fact that these guys did a brilliant job.
This entire project — from realtor, mortgage broker, lawyers & bank — was plagued by unbelievable incompetence. Colin Smith saved the day for my first Boston real estate experience. They were professional and the results were creative.
