Testimonials

At Modern Design Architects, we stand by our work. But, you don’t have to take our word for it. Read through the testimonials below and find out why people appreciate working with our small firm.

  • Modern Builders and Modern Design have planned, designed and constructed two additions to the Northeast Community School District Middle/High School within the past five years. One was a Tornado Safe Room and the second was a new gymnasium and science addition. They were chosen because Modern Design had the knowledge and expertise of working with federal grants and FEMA, and because they were a small firm who would devote the necessary attention to each of our projects. Modern Builders provided construction management and architectural services and served as the general contractor. The design of both additions have received glowing reviews by the general public.

  • You have been nothing but top notch since the first time I met you.  You made Lauryn and I feel at ease about out upcoming project. If everything is looking good from Rob we don't plan on even contacting any other architects.  We are very pleased with how everything is going so far.

    Chris - a Prospective Client

  • It is rare to find someone who has all the needs of a school district in mind, yet works to make the design fit so well into the campus it is designed for. The building met our budget needs but exceeded our hopes for a structure that would be viewed as exceptional in design and functionality.

    Jere Vyverberg, Former Superintendent, W-SR Schools

  • LSI chose to work with Modern Design and Modern Builders for several reasons. One of which was our desire to work with a firm that has experience in the design-build process and is also engaged as a community member and a significant contributor to local non-profits and businesses.

    Kaye Englin - Vice President, Lutheran Services of Iowa

  • When we were designing and building the 300 Building, Rob was always willing to sit down to discuss the progress of the job and listen to our input. Since he and his family live in Waverly, he also takes great care to make sure all jobs are completed in a way to make them a point of community pride.
