"It is with great pleasure that we pen this reference for Kelvin Way of Archway Models.
Kelvin has over the last few years, produced a number of models of varying degrees of complexity for our practice, and in all cases his unfailing willingness to produce only the best quality product within tight timeframes has been impressive.
No matter what the obstacles, clients needs or changes have placed in his way, at any stage of the production process, Kelvin has found a way to respond willingly and with precision.
From a cost viewpoint we believe that the level of quality, attention to detail and inventiveness in solving problems, provided by Kelvin, represents real value for money.
We have no hesitation in recommending him to any other prospective client."

"Kelvin was commissioned June 2001 to design and build an elaborate model of our Aeropark development at the Northshore Airfield.
His brief was such that this model had to accurately show details of the development, as this model was to aid a mediation, currently in progress, and also used in an environment court if necessary.
Kelvin had a tight time schedule, 2 weeks, this was met with several days to spare. I was particularly impressed at the professionally high standard of the finished article. I was not expecting such good standard at the price quoted, as I have had models made in the past by other parties, more expensive for far lesser standard.
I recommend Kelvin to anyone, as it has been a pleasure to have had such a keen, honest and professional person to work with. He will do an extremely good job, you will be more than satisfied with his finished result."

"The 1.8m x 2.5m scale model of our master-planned extension of Waimauku Village certainly is a conversation piece! It forms the focal point of our open days and workshops, and allows people to immediately understand what is proposed. People love to see their own house in the existing village included in the model, and we love to watch people pointing at their future house! Kelvin did a great job turning our 2D plans into 3D reality, and we would not hesitate to recommend him."
