What Our Clients Say

The evidence of our efforts to achieve quality architecture comes from satisfied clients who repeatedly ask us to assist them with new projects. It is vital that we receive feedback from clients about their facilities and how they are working for them.

  • “…the entire team within their organization feels pride and ownership in our successful construction projects over the last decade. They have been instrumental in helping us communicate to our community the importance of each project, the costs of those projects, and the long-term benefits they will provide. Needless to say, we have had overwhelming support for each and every bond issue that has been presented.”
    Joe Miller
    Former Board Member at Southern Boone County R-1 School District
  • “The building has been well received by our staff and customers, and its success has allowed our company to expand our service to mid-Missouri customers with two additional branches in Jefferson City. The consistent visual aesthetic of each branch facility, combined with our commitment to environmentally conscious development (and a branding campaign), has strengthened our image and position in the community.”
    Hal James
    Missouri Credit Union
  • “PWArchitects were incredibly professional to work with.  The project truly felt like a collaborative effort with very open and transparent dialogue.  Chris listened carefully to our project wishes and requests and worked with us to make them happen.  Every step of the way, it was clearly apparent that tremendous care was being put into the project.”
    David Egan
    Assistant Principal/Athletic Director at Rock Bridge High School, Columbia Public Schools
  • “This new facility (the new Student Center) will provide much-needed space for student interactions and recreation. As our student population has grown, there is an increased need for this specially designed facility, which will enhance the student life environment and provide space for student social engagement.”
    Bonnie Humphreys
    former President, Missouri Valley College
  • “In our opinion, the engineering and design team did a great job coming together to produce a very usable and sustainable product for the school district. Your design team displayed a commitment to quality, excellent design, and a very good attitude, which has left a lasting impression on K&S Associates. We knew we could count on your team to provide timely and cost-effective solutions to any roadblock that we faced. This team environment was critical for our planning and scheduling of all trades and supplies. It was a
    pleasure for us to work with your team of designers, who maintained a great sense of humor, kept us on our toes,
    and always came through to get the problems solved on time.”

    Superintendent, K&S Associates, Inc/General Contractors
  • “The architectural documents produced by Chris, Dylan, and the entire PWA team are of the highest quality, demonstrating meticulous attention to detail that is crucial for the successful execution of educational facilities. This level of professionalism not only facilitates our planning processes but also ensures that our vision for our facilities is clearly communicated to all stakeholders involved. Additionally, the budget information provided by PWA Architects has been incredibly useful in guiding our team as we explore various funding sources. Chris and Dylan’s thorough and transparent financial insights have empowered the Board of Education to make informed decisions that align with our strategic goals and available resources. This support is invaluable as we strive to enhance our educational facilities.”
