I strongly recommend and support the services of C&T Design. I have had the pleasure of working with C&T Design, and specifically Kevin Craig, throughout the last three years on several commercial construction projects and have been very satisfied with their performance. As an owner’s representative, I experienced firsthand the effects of the pandemic, labor shortages, and supply chain issues and these impacts on a project’s timeline and budget. Despite these challenges that every vendor faced, C&T Design worked hard to maintain constant commination and transparency so that procurement of products was successful. C&T’s expertise is unparalleled, which is reflected in their design as well as their customer service throughout the project. C&T Design is an asset to any project and their breadth of knowledge qualifies them to implement complex projects.

Emily has been a real development partner throughout all of our growth. She is very in tune to what we want to accomplish in a project and helps to design in a way that allows us to really achieve our goals….she is utterly instrumental in designing our spaces and implementing our unique processes. She always asks the right questions and leads us down the right path.
For example, when we first met with C&T, Emily immediately understood our goal. With a farm to fork concept in mind, Emily saw what we wanted to accomplish and helped us find the best way to implement our chef-focused vision of a modern kitchen experience.
