我们家住在一个历史街区的维多利亚式大房子里，建于1882年. We had a challenge on our hands when we sought to enhance our family’s living and social space on a fairly small lot which we ambitiously wanted to populate with a new swimming pool, 景观, 可以容纳三辆车的车库, 寄存室, 家庭房, 和更衣室/酒吧. How could we do all of this with neighbor buy-in and Historic Commission sign-off for our Building Permit? 答案:汤姆·威尔科克斯，建筑师. 汤姆被朋友介绍给我们，他立刻对这个项目表现出了关心, 专业知识, 和个人服务，这导致了从概念的平稳过渡, 到最终图纸, 顺利通过审批程序. His fees were extremely reasonable and the value of his services show every time we attend a neighborhood party where neighbors say, “你们家装修得很好 . . . 它看起来像是原来房子的一部分!” 查看更多图片 ›

和汤姆一起在玛丽蒙特建房子是我的梦想.

当我们第一次看到这个设计时，我们马上就知道这就是它!  He had taken so much about what we liked and disliked in a house from our meeting with him and put it into our house . . . 他甚至似乎学会了我们甚至没有意识到我们想要的东西! He took a vested interest in each step of the building process to be sure things were going according to design. Many people still comment on how well our “new” house blends right into this “older” community. 查看更多图片 ›

汤姆接管了我们1860年需要重大翻新的排屋的挑战. He was able to overhaul the infrastructure while adding beautiful design elements in keeping with the historical character and to navigate through the city requirements for historical preservation.

汤姆在处理现有建筑的局限性方面具有创新精神和务实精神. We especially loved problem-solving with him about how to use the awkward spaces inherent in a building of that age. 他清楚地表达了自己的想法，并很灵活地采纳了我们的想法. Working with Tom was a very satisfying creative experience and we loved the livability of the finished product.

从实际的角度来看, 汤姆提供了出色的图纸，使我们很容易将过程形象化. 他探索并提出了项目各个方面的财务选择. 他在他认为我们需要的地方引入了其他设计人员. 正如所料，我们在老建筑的“墙后”有了惊喜. 汤姆的经验和技术专长使每一项都成为加分项. 他及时、可靠、经济上可行. 没有更高的赞美了! 非常愉快的经历!

汤姆·威尔科克斯帮我们把最初的家变成了永远的家. 我们决定在我们的房子顶上再加一块!)来照顾我们正在成长的孩子. Tom expertly walked us through many floor plans and home designs that more than met our needs. 作为设计师，汤姆耐心地处理我们的想法，直到我们完全满意为止. His technical mastery ensured our plans were approved the first time and the general contractor knew exactly what to build. 多亏了汤姆，我们有了一个美丽的新家，我们会爱它很多年的! 看到之前 & 后 ›

我和汤姆一起为我的百年老宅增建. 他很有创造力，愿意倾听我表达的任何想法. I actually won a prize from the city for the design because it fits so well with the character of my existing home. 查看更多图片 ›

2011年6月, we purchased our Hyde Park home recognizing there were a number of issues with the house that needed to be addressed immediately. We also wanted to make several improvements but didn’t intend to change the floor plan in any way. 而不是雇佣一个总承包商, we retained Tom as a construction consultant and we could not have been happier for doing so. Tom orchestrated the hiring and timing of all the sub-contractors and served as our advocate throughout the whole process. His counsel was invaluable as he made recommendations to solve problems that saved both time and money. 汤姆还减轻了我们与分包商打交道的负担. 如果承包商没有达到我们的期望, 我们去找汤姆，问题立即得到了解决. Tom’s professionalism and responsiveness were really impressive and his hourly rate was incredibly reasonable. 没有一项重大的家庭装修是容易的, 但我们无法想象，如果没有汤姆的参与，我们的项目会有多困难.  

汤姆完成了一个大的环绕甲板和一个新的地下室入口的完整设计. 他还为我们的一楼改造画了研究图纸. 他的作品很有创意，使我们的房子焕然一新. 与此同时，他密切关注功能和施工的便利性. 我们很乐意让汤姆做我们将来需要的任何设计.

汤姆为我设计了一个前廊. 这真的改变了我的房子——现在从街上看，我的房子看起来很受欢迎，很有吸引力. 当我坐在门廊的秋千上, the neighbors and dog walkers who watched the porch go up all stop to tell me how beautiful it is!
