G V V Architects

Doug (and Ann) listened to our vision and brought it to life on paper. Our project was owner built and they were readily available with facts, calculations and advice. GVV is a friendly and professional team and a pleasure to work with. We are very happy with the results. We give them thanks and a big recommendation.

We hired GVV Architects for an extensive home renovation which included a complete remodel of both bathrooms, and a redesign of the entire first floor. This is the second time we have worked with Doug Viehmann ( he designed an earlier addition/renovation in 2001), and have felt that his design ideas and collaboration with us were excellent! Doug came over several times long before the project began to consider the overall goals we had in mind, and hear us talk through taste and space issues we were wondering about. We really like Doug's ability to absorb a lot of variables (presented by us) and translate them into design solutions that are functional and beautiful. On this project he designed some great lighting solutions, created a clever solution to a redesign of a TV watching area (the TV easily disappears when we are not using it!), and moved us along in our thinking with the result being a fantastic, sunny, open house that feels twice as high without adding any square feet! The highest possible recommendation for Doug and his firm.

Outstanding creative work. Doug and Abbey were able to translate exactly what I wanted into the final design. Execution was perfect. Support along the way couldn't be better. G V V did an outstanding job and I have the home I envisioned because of their dedication to vision and expertise in working with their clients. I highly recommend them. The final product is Architectual Digest perfect.

Amazingly talented architects....innovative, creative, able to understand client vision, and translate to workable plans. Exceeded all expectations..... Clever, fun, and inspiring.... Realistic expectations, brilliant problem solvers....

Doug Viehmann designed our Adirondack style house on Lake Champlain a number of years ago. Doug was very pleasant to deal with. He was soothing during the high stress times of construction and was very practical with his ideas. Change always occurs with a custom design and Doug responded quickly to our ideas. We felt that we worked very well together with Doug. We have kept in communication over the years since our project was completed about the house and other architectural issues and Doug has always been there to provide his insight and opinion. We would highly recommend him for residential design.
