Who We Are

We hired Will to assist in a complete renovation of our lower level. The project included a full kitchen renovation, the addition of a gym and also a temperature controlled wine cellar. Will was a pleasure to work with. He is a consummate professional, totally reliable and very thorough. He brought outstanding experience and very original ideas to our project. He was there for us every step of the way-from the initial concept meetings, drafting the plans, bidding out the project to contractors, getting permits, and all the way through until the end. Will kept our project moving and advised us accordingly through the inevitable unforeseen issues that arise in a project of this scope. He worked well with our general contractor and also our interior designer. I give Will the highest recommendation possible.Read More

Earlier this year I decided on renovating and expanding an existing 50+ year-old, two story, 2 car garage at my residence in Pepper Pike. I had ideas on a cost-effective way to add a 3rd bay and sought out an architect to assist with the project as I was serving as my own general contractor. I spoke with about 4-5 candidates and settled on Will as he showed a real appreciation for what I was seeking to accomplish. The expansion, while not massive, presented its challenges. There was a structural issue with the existing floor joists - Will put me in contact with a structural engineer who designed a fix (steel beam) and stamped validation. The city required plans for Architectural Review Board (ARB) approval - Will's drawings met all the ARB's requirements and were approved at the first review meeting (which he attended with me). He then also generated the plans for the build itself which involved engineered trusses, relocation of a staircase and utilization of an existing load-bearing wall. This was a time sensitive project. Will delivered on his commitments on-time and came well prepared for our planning meetings. I would highly recommend his services.Read More

Will has a fantastic vision for lighting! I have worked on several projects over the years, both directly with him and with his clients within our Lyndhurst showroom. He has a great talent of incorporating all aspects into his design vision. Lighting being so important, I have a lot of fun working with him. He is creative, motivated and highly professional. I always look forward to seeing him, and helping with his projects.Read More

I hired William as the Architect for the two story addition to my colonial. I wanted someone who would embrace my project, who was familiar with the homes in my area, and who would design an addition that allowed me to maintain the integrity of the home. William was very professional, down to earth, very organized, creative, resourceful and innovative. He took the time to explain everything to me and most importantly he listened to my needs, and worked to ensure my satisfaction. We had to obtain a variance from the City due to lot size constraints and he was so outstanding at building relationships and understanding the overall process that our variance was approved with no issues. My addition is almost complete (about two weeks to go), and the design is fabulous, it looks as if it is part of the original structure. William was wonderful to work with, I would hire him again, and highly recommend him for any project.Read More

About William J. Fugo Jr., In 2008, I hired Mr. Fugo to develop an addition to my traditional colonial style home. the project was a white contemporary feeling sun room that attached to a remodeled kitchen. The end result was a great marriage of out door space with two decks, white-washed wood floors inside, and complementing tile within the kitchen. Mr. Fugo worked easily with an interior designer, a general contractor, and myself. It was a pleasure. I would recommend his firm for responsible financial restraint, great design ideas, and secure opinions that can handle any employer pressure. The project design added tremendous style to my home. I later put my home on the market, my home sold in three days! Comments from those who toured my home said the addition was beautiful and was a job well done. Eileen LydonRead More
