“MTM Architecture is an incredibly reliable firm I've worked with on multiple brands over many years. They are always accessible and take a hands-on approach for each site. I've used them on everything from conversions, vanilla shells and ground-up construction. It has been a pleasure working with Matthew and the MTM team."
Christopher Wadleigh
Vice President of Development
Angry Chickz
"Matthew and his team have guided us through converting a retail space into our second restaurant location with professionalism, creativity, and unwavering support. From the very beginning, the MTM team brought structure, clarity, and a calming confidence to a process that can easily feel overwhelming. The organization, thoughtful communication, and cost-conscious approach took a tremendous amount of weight off our shoulders, which is a true gift in the world of restaurant build-outs.
Matthew brings a rare blend of energy, vision, wisdom, and practicality to every conversation. He listens deeply, offers smart and creative solutions, and genuinely cares about the success of the project. MTM Architecture has not just supported this build, they have elevated it. We are genuinely grateful for the leadership, partnership, and heart they have shown throughout this entire journey."

"MTM Architecture has been serving as Chronic Tacos preferred architect since 2016. The process of planning and constructing multiple locations at any given time can be complicated and overwhelming. Having MTM working with our corporate team and franchisees has made the entire process from initial design to project completion become seamless."
Dan Mohammed
Vice President
Chronic Tacos Enterprises
"Working with Matthew over the past several years as a Designer for Wendy’s has been an absolute pleasure. He consistently brings a positive, collaborative spirit to every project. He is one of the most professional architects I’ve had the opportunity to work with.
Matthew excels at navigating complex, non-standard franchisee requests while consistently advocating for our Brand’s design standards and integrity. His flexibility, attention to detail, and commitment to quality make him an invaluable partner on even the most challenging projects."
Shelby Trautman
Senior Designer
The Wendy's Company
"Our team had the pleasure of working with MTM Architecture on a Hot Head Burritos franchise project, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. I’ve been involved in more than 60 development projects over the years, working with a wide range of architectural firms, and MTM has truly been the best group I’ve ever partnered with.
Beyond their outstanding communication, attention to detail, and responsiveness, MTM delivered a level of quality that far exceeded our expectations, at a price point that was significantly more competitive than we anticipated. We felt we received superior quality at a lower cost, which is rare in this industry and something we genuinely appreciated.
We’re thrilled with the outcome and look forward to partnering with MTM again on future projects."

No jargon, no bravado.
Just straightforward plans and a team you can count on, day or night.
