Client Testimonials

“Lane Architecture did a great job with our ITS project.  From design development through construction administration, they made sure the College got the facility we needed and went the extra mile to support the College.”
Mitchell Johnson, AVP Facility Operations and Safety; Guilford Technical Community College

On the mock courtroom renovation…..  “I hear nothing but glowing reviews of the space.  One comment I have heard is that staff was telling their students that this “courtroom” is nicer than almost all the ones you’re likely to appear in.”
Greg Long, AIA, Executive Director of Design & Construction; Central Piedmont Community College
