Patrick and the Harka team were truly awesome. Our project at Portland Audubon was to remake our summer camp / outdoor school facility. We worked in two phases over five years (our delays, not theirs). The first phase was to build two giant yurts for dorms and upgrade the parking, fire suppression, and septic infrastructure to accommodate a growth in capacity from 20 to 60 students. Patrick helped us through the permitting process and created living quarters that thrill kids. In the second phase we turned a small shack into a beautiful cabin. It was a major upgrade while at the same time preserving the historic and sentimental virtues of the old cabin. The new cabin (at 1.1 million it is quite a cabin) is beautiful, functional, and elegantly simple. Everyone who sees it, loves it. Kids especially. I also thank Patrick for all his help solving problems as they arose. We couldn't have finished it on-time, on-budget, and to everyone's delight without him and the team. I recommend Harka highly. As with any architect you need to watch that they don't get too fancy (spendy) on you, especially with finishes. Some really fancy ceiling fans snuck by, for example. In the end I'm glad they did.
What did I do right in a former life to get this team? A+ all around, recommend them to all my friends.
