FR Review:
Clients report that Birch Coffey collaboratively develops thoughtful designs that often incorporate a restrained, international style and architectural presence. He achieves looks that are refined but relaxed--perfect for dinner parties, but also able to withstand the wear and tear of daily family life. He receives kudos for taking initiative, delivering jobs with fine detail, and building upon clients' visions. Though Coffey has an extensive commercial background in New York, he has recently moved to Connecticut and dedicated his efforts to residential work. Preferring to work individually with clients, he keeps only a minimal staff and makes all decisions himself.
References appreciate Coffey's top-notch organizational skills and professional thoroughness, including strong up-front presentations, excellent documentation, and great follow-up. Clients say it is often unnecessary to hire a separate architect, as Coffey holds both a BA and a master's in architecture. The company forgoes product markups and instead works on a straight hourly fee. Clients praise Coffey for offering product alternatives, for staying on schedule, and for respecting budgets. ASID.
Representative Client Comments:
"Birch offers the unexpected within a traditional framework--but it is always in good taste." "He orchestrates the entire project--The plans are detailed and they make sure the contractors finish the job." "My husband and I not only like Birch but we also respect his business acumen." "He has an amazing eye. He offers a mix of limited antique and mostly repro to ease the wallet." "When there were issues, he worked them out directly with the contractor, saving me untold headaches." "Never scoffs at the bottom line." "He's given up the hustle and bustle of the commercial work to do what he's always wanted to do: create beautiful homes." "Not as well known, so you get something unique and special." "If he cannot find the perfect piece, he gets it made. I love that can-do attitude." "He makes it happen." "He was so patient, even when I changed my mind a hundred times."
