About

I am a residential remodeling contractor and custom home builder in New Paltz NY. I have had the pleasure of working with Hoover Architecture on multiple projects. I can say first hand that Kim has delivered in meeting her clients expectations and vision. Kim is a great listener and is very responsive. Her designs are thoughtful, intelligent and play well with the existing home and/or landscape. If you are looking to build a home, an addition, or any other type of project in the mid hudson valley call Kim you will not be disappointed.

We simply could not have realized our upstate home dreams without Kim. She is so kind and considerate, so knowledgeable and easy to work with... Whereas most high-end architects charge an exorbitant fee as a % of whatever they design, Kim works off a cost per hour basis, which was significantly less expensive than her peers... for what I would consider superior results.

The best part about working with Kim, aside from her creativity and talent, is her really superior communication skills. We were never left hanging and she often pro-actively reached to us to make sure ...

The most important decision we made when building our house was choosing Kim Hoover as the architect. It was the first house we had built and we were totally naive to how many bumps there would be along the road. We found out about Hoover Architecture via Houzz where Kim had stellar reviews across the board, and she was located somewhat in the area of upstate New York where we hoped to build our home in the woods near a lake. We had travelled a couple times around Iceland and my Italian wife had lived for a time in Sweden; we loved the simplicity of the Scandinavian houses and hope to incorporate aspects of that design into a house that would fit into the lake community where we planned to b...
