From start to finish, from paper to the actual construction, from interior decorating to the finished project, VanDeWalle Architects completed a great project. We remodeled an existing bank and kept the bank open the entire time. VanDeWalle Architects helped keep the project moving and completed in a timely manner. The planning it took from Brad Dietzenbach and his staff really made this project happen. We were blessed to have VanDeWalle Architects meet our expectations on our remodel and now enjoy a great working environment in Hills, Minnesota.
