I have known Bil Rust since the early 1980's. He did my architectural work for a national chain of restaurants I built in MN. Recently I hired his firm to do a survey of the physical condition of an office/mfg bldg I own in the MPS market. He did an outstanding job and does followups as required. I highly recommend his services.

Just putting the finishing touches on a 15 year vacant building that is now a Domino's pizza. I was hesitant of using an architectural firm out of state. They absolutely met my expectations. Brian has been super fast at working through the minor changes our city inspectors have requested. Thank you Rust.

Rust Architects provided invaluable help with our home redesign. The project involved structural improvements, floor plan redesign, and consulting. Bill and his team are easy to work with, and would recommend them for complex projects.

After interviewing several firms, we hired Bill Rust to help convert our 1940's cabin in northern Wisconsin into a modern, four season home. Bill's vision and understanding of what we wanted was excellent. The result is a showpiece home that retains the flavor of the original building, but has opened up huge spaces for for family living and entertaining. Rust Construction did an excellent job with the contracting and build of our home. We worked with them remotely from London via telephone and a camera system that allowed us to discuss anything that came up. The firm seamlessly looped in our decorator

We recently hired Rust Architects for a deck remodel and outdoor patio space. I was impressed with their ability to handle city planing issues and deliver the outdoor space and design we had always dreamed of. Many thanks to the Rust team!

I am a manufacturer's representative in the park and recreation field and have had the opportunity to collaborate on the design and construction of a customized park shelter building with Bill Rust of Rust Architects. Bill made several requests for product information and was receptive to suggestions and recommendations we made in the process; not always the case when working with architects and designers. The result was a successful project, delivered on-time and within budget for the client. I would recommend Rust Architects to any individual or organization seeking design services.

Very good experience with Rust Architects. Bill came up with several ideas, visited the site and we had an ongoing discussion about what we liked. Settled on a plan and had it built. Final product exceeded our expectations.
