SHP Leading Design has been fantastic to work with on this major project for our district. From the very first meeting through the design phase and during construction, they have been a great partner. All of their personnel have been very helpful and they are outstanding at communication with me and my staff.
…I have found the individuals associated with SHP to be very professional, easy to work with, and they have the district’s best interest in mind, as they design a school building that is energy efficient and cutting-edge, and will serve the district for many decades.
SHP was tasked with taking a building from concept to completion in just twelve months. Along the way it was necessary to match 80 year old brick and negotiate HVAC changes to name a few of the challenges faced. In the end Southern Seminary asked for a “stunning” building to welcome our guests to campus and SHP more than delivered.
Their service has been excellent, providing quick response and superb follow-thru on all our projects, as well as assistance beyond their scope of work.
We have been extremely pleased with the leadership of SHP on this project and are thrilled with the outcome. Ariel Hall is visually stunning and will be an incredible asset to the college and the community.
SHP’s design services are matched by their ability to understand the needs of the owner and construction team delivering the work.
SHP took an existing facility on our Fayette campus and transformed it into a building that makes a statement and gives our campus the image we were seeking. In addition to being beautiful, the design accomplished everything we needed.
…I would be remiss if I did not mention that SHP worked with us, even after the building opened, to correct small issues. Their commitment to quality and our satisfaction was absolute.
They have professional competence, a thorough knowledge of their business, use common sense solutions, have the ability to get along with people, supervise and evaluate situations, are very organized, are enthusiastic, follow through, possess integrity...
…a successful partnership is not just about business and dollars. It is about the willingness of a company/ organization to understand the needs of our district and work collaboratively with us to develop a plan to help us address those needs. The associates and team that you put together to work on our facilities planning project should be applauded.
Although we have not started construction, I have found the SHP Team to be extremely collaborative. Simply put, they listen. Whether they communicate with our staff, administration, Board, or community, they approach each interaction positively...
I have found the architects, engineers, and managers to be very knowledgeable, flexible and helpful in the planning process. Options are explored, expenses are detailed and well researched recommendations are made.
SHP personnel successfully worked in collaboration with us to create the most cost effective design plan while meeting our needs and expectations. Each project was completed on time at or below estimated cost.
I am also very impressed with the level of creativity and innovative they have brought to our projects. In this large scale project, they have worked with us to provide state-of-the-art educational spaces as well as unique solutions for our athletics, dining and administrative services.
One of the most important decisions a district is selecting an architectural firm for the project. Steed Hammond Paul was our architect and we count their selection as one of the best decisions that we made in regards to the project.
The solutions brought forth for this complex project exceeded our expectations and only served to reinforce our trust in choosing SHP. You have earned the respect of the college leadership.
