  Herr Cocuzza hat mich von der Wohnungssuche bis zur Fertigstellung der Wohnung begleitet. Nicht ein Makler, sondern Herr Cocuzza hatte die perfekte Wohnung für mich gefunden. Die Wohnung wurde dann auf Basis seiner Pläne von einer Baufirma, die auch er organisiert hatte, komplett renoviert. Herr Cocuzza zeigt viel Liebe für das Detail und hat tolle Ideen für eine optisch ansprechende und gleichzeitig funktionale Raumgestaltung. Während der Renovierung hat er alle Schritte genaustens überwacht und darauf geachtet, dass die Baufirma ordentlich arbeitet. Herr Cocuzza sorgte für eine optimale Kommunikation zwischen allen Beteiligten am Bau. Das Ergebnis ist eine wunderschöne Wohnung zum Wohlfühlen,  die alle meine Wünsche erfüllt. Vielen Dank für alles!

  We are very happy to have worked with Unless for our new flat. The architect has been extremely competent, reliable and brilliant. He gave us new ideas that optimized and improved the areas of our flat. He has always been on time and helped us to sort out technical details with the construction company. He shaped the vibes by defining the furniture and details we wanted to have in our home. I’m pleased by the collaboration and totally recommend it! Working with an architect from abroad has never been simpler!

  Ho acquistato un bilocale che necessitava di alcuni interventi di sistemazione delle parti interne pertanto mi sono rivolto ad Unless per una consulenza. Già dal momento dei rilievi ho avuto l'impressione di alta professionalità e cortesia nei confronti del cliente. Tale impressione positiva è stata confermata quando ho visto i disegni, che mi sono stati forniti in tempi rapidi. Sono rimasto piacevolmente stupito dalle soluzioni che mi sono state proposte per trasformare il mio appartamento. Soluzioni accompagnate da preventivi molto dettagliati che mi hanno orientato con facilità nella scelta. Ottimo servizio, precisione, onestà. Consigliatissimo.

  Sono molto soddisfatto dell’assistenza ricevuta da Unless, anche a distanza. L’architetto è competente e disponibile. Ho ricevuto in breve tempo le planimetrie di cui avevo bisogno ed è stato molto facile intendersi sulle piccole modifiche e nella definizione degli elaborati finali.

La qualità grafica dei disegni è molto buona: sono dettagliati, belli da vedere e di facile comprensione. Questo mi permette anche di mostrarli ai miei clienti che possono essere interessati ad affittare il mio studio fotografico. Complessivamente sono rimasto molto sodisfatto del risultato e tornerò certamente a usufruire dei loro servizi, qualora se ne presentasse il bisogno.
