“Mr. Knadjian was the primary designer of our church, St. Apkar Armenian Apostolic Church here in Scottsdale, AZ, which was consecrated in September 2009. As the architect in charge of the project, Mr. Knadjian demonstrated steady leadership over the six and a half year duration of the building process. His excellent verbal and written communication skills were evidenced in the coordination required for working with the building committee, our congregation and the city officials to achieve the ecclesiastical and other needs of the project.”
