The Way Station

“Remodels of existing buildings like the Way Station always pose more challenges. RMC’s plans showed a lot of foresight and anticipation of unforeseen circumstances. It made life easier for everyone on the team by allowing us to move more fluidly through the project and avoid any major snags. They are unmatched in their knowledge of construction and its processes. They understand everything we throw at them and are not afraid to create an open forum to work through challenges. But my favorite thing about RMC is their professionalism. They are a pleasure to work with and make themselves available to the team regardless of how busy they are. They knock it out of the park every time.”

Bellingham Public Schools

“We appreciate that RMC is a company that knows our community and has staff that are part of this school district. You can see that in the building. The design includes so many spaces for other people (in the community) that come to us to use our meeting spaces, or the Professional Learning Center, or the Early Learning Center, or the café. We wanted a building that made it comfortable for them and for our administrative staff, as well as for our entire district staff. So, I think choosing a company that is part of this community enforced that in so many tangible and intangible ways. This isn’t just the district’s building; this is the community’s building. RMC’s thoughtful design takes all of this into consideration.”

Evergreen Beauty College Building

“RMC is a top-notch architecture firm. We began working with them in 2017 and since then, they have been our architects of choice because of their responsiveness and acute knowledge. They know how to get a project permitted in a timely manner and how to work with contractors to get things done. They were adept at navigating the requirements and restrictions for our historical building and delighted us with the end results. RMC’s client relations ethos and design sensibilities make them an amazing firm to work with.”

Whatcom County Library System Facilities Condition Assessment 2021

“Principal Brad Cornwell served as a trustee for Whatcom County Library System for several years. He understands what contemporary libraries are doing in their library buildings and the particular challenges they face and can incorporate this knowledge into designing spaces that are flexible and functional as well as aesthetically pleasing.  For our Facilities Assessment, RMC deployed a team to conduct a thorough review of each building; they have excellent working relationships with a wide variety of subcontractors they can call on for expert input.”

Christ Lutheran Church

“RMC listened closely and compassionately to our needs and went above and beyond the call of duty to make our project successful. The remodel/expansion of Christ Lutheran Church has brought our congregation together, given us lovely and bright spaces to gather, made our building easier to navigate, and expanded our welcoming presence in the community.”

Bellingham Public Library

“The construction phase of our library project began when everything was shutting down because of COVID. I think the best part about working with RMC was their ability to be flexible and adapt to the dynamic shift that occurred during that time in construction, as well as internally for our organization and externally from a supplier standpoint. RMC’s patience and understanding navigating that complicated process, while managing the City’s needs and requirements, helped make the Bellingham Public Library project a success.”

Whatcom County, Multiple Projects

“RMC’s team has done an excellent job executing the administration’s directives in a manner that makes the department head end users feel heard, satisfied, and excited about the project result. Most projects have been performed while buildings have been occupied. RMC has a way of developing a project schedule to have the least impact to productivity, yet gets it completed within a reasonable and demanding timeline.”

“As an attorney I have worked with a number of architectural firms over the years, including RMC, on a variety of commercial and government client projects. The architects at RMC are professional, cost-effective, and responsive. They listen to the clients and come to clients with solutions, not issues. Recently, when we sought to expand the office space in our 110-year-old brick warehouse, we looked to RMC for cost-estimates, design, and construction support. RMC worked with us and our general contractor to guide a successful project.”

The Owl’s Nest

“RMC designed the house to fit into the landscape and environment using materials and colors that complement the natural surroundings—this was very important to us. RMC understands and delivers the subtle transition from the natural environment to a newly built home. One of the things we love most is the seamless flow from inside to outside, which allows us to enjoy the property to its fullest potential. It has truly been a pleasure to work with Jeff McClure and the entire team at RMC Architects.”

Skagit Valley College, Multiple Projects

“As our Campus Architect, RMC has been a critical partner in the success of Skagit Valley College. Their team is reliable and responsive. They are always willing to go the extra mile to ensure projects are delivered successfully. This is true for small tenant improvement projects as well as multi-million-dollar major building replacement projects. RMC is my first call for Architectural and Engineering support.”
