Feedback from the fearless

Having spent several years on the lake where we planned to build our home, we had a good idea of what we wanted. We knew which porches, windows, roof designs we liked best. Chris took our ideas and transformed them into our perfect dream home with views of the water from every room. We are forever grateful to Chris and his impeccable eye for detail.

Valerie and Jeffery Smith - Homeowners

Chris and I have worked on several jobs over the years including new construction and preservation projects. Our most recent collaboration was to create spaces that promote health and wellbeing for seniors. Chris is attentive to ideas that stakeholders express and has always been successful in integrating those ideas in his design work. He has been my “go to” architect for many years – I always look forward to working with Chris on new projects.

Paul Teixeira - Executive Director - Barre, MA Housing Authority

I have partnered with n3 architects on several retail and office building projects. Chris’ work is always professional and he produces high quality and accurate construction documents. This level of detail reduces questions on the job site, allowing for a smoother construction phase.

William Gagnon - Owner, CKG Designs

I have worked with Chris Novelli on several projects over the course of approximately 20 years. The projects ranged from small office renovations to a large scale apartment building. Chris offers top quality design ideas, thorough construction documentation and responsive project administration. He is extremely well versed and respected in the development of HUD housing. We are very proud of our portfolio of projects and Chris has been instrumental in the development of many of them.
