Testimonials

Client Love

McCarthy Nordburg was the clear choice as our design partner. They brought excellent listening skills to our office planning committee. Based on our unique goals and objectives, they presented smart solutions to help us translate our culture and practice into an elegant functional workspace. The new offices meet the needs of the next generation of lawyers and serve as a beautiful backdrop for the firm’s southwest art collection.

-Chris Raddatz, Gammage & Burnham

The best project I have worked on in my 12 years at Zovio and I can only THANK the great team that brought it to our vision!

-Pattie Jensen-Nicklo, formerly with Zovio

-Marianne Guenther, BIG YAM and PXG

We are excited to show off our space and the staff is thrilled with the new environment. It is a collaborative creative work space that meets our needs. We got everything we requested, within budget and on time.

-Melissa Ferris, formerly with Invitation Homes

When we said our ideal office would liken a restaurant or hotel, we never dreamed it could become a reality. The McCarthy Nordburg design team listened to what we wanted.

-Brent Shetler, Mindspace

A genuine pleasure to work with. The McCarthy Nordburg team took our many changes in stride as PXG was growing as fast as (and sometimes faster than) we could design and build!" "We provided the McCarthy Nordburg team with a huge challenge - take an old warehouse and transform it into a world-class facility that includes a stunning retail space, state-of-the-art fitting area, multiple entertaining options, a production facility, storage and also office and meeting spaces. They took this challenge head on and exceeded every expectation.

Working with the team at McCarthy Nordburg was a phenomenally positive experience. They have an innate ability to not just hear, but listen to what is not being said, and turn those thoughts into creative ideas. They designed an absolutely beautiful workspace that perfectly reflects the culture of Coppersmith Brockelman.
