FR Review:
Clients and peers recognize Boris Baranovich mostly for his traditional, classical style of architectural design with an emphasis on French, English and American Shingle styles. Baranovich is also known for being a "finisher"—always tying up loose ends. While some say his style can be a bit heavy, all appreciate his attention to detail and high-quality work. Clients also praise Baranovich for his accommodating nature and ability to execute their wishes. They describe him as thoughtful, polite, honest and a strong communicator.
Baranovich holds a degree from Pratt and is the sole principal of this seventeen-person firm, which has been in business since 1984. Early in his career he trained with David Easton. The firm takes on six to eight new projects each year. Large projects start at about half a million and go up to the tens of millions. Beyond Manhattan, his work can be seen from New Jersey to Greenwich and the Hamptons. The firm charges an hourly rate that is comparable to a standard percentage of total construction costs.
Representative Client Comments:
"A very literal and detailed translation of the glorious past." "The pool house looks as if it has been there since 1904 when the house was built." "While the costs are not small, Boris is very sensitive to keeping to budget." "Office organization not a strong point; a bit slow in pushing our production, but well worth the wait." "Was happy to speak to us on Sunday evenings at 10 PM." "Boris always tries to please. He never says 'this is the way it should be.'" "He is always ready to make a trip to the site within minutes." "He can turn new construction into a dazzling showpiece of grandeur and elegance." "Totally trustworthy."
