Lucas Cooper // Owner
I always see beauty in the creation process. I was drawn to building from a very young age. I founded Reform after years of working long hours as a laborer in the construction industry. I have worked on framing crews, in a cabinet shop, as a furniture builder, a handyman, and a project manager. Through these experiences I have acquired an extensive knowledge and skill set that has become the foundation to how I manage the construction process.
I believe a house is much more than a status symbol or a way to protect its inhabitants. When designed properly a house has the potential to inspire. A house can be a place where family, friends, and neighbors can interact and escape the fast paced world around them. My goal is to help create a space that will bring out the best in a person.
Layne Beller // Operations Manager
I have a long love of the building and design industry. Starting a construction company at 19 years old, and self performing the majority of the work, has given me an opportunity to develop the confidence needed to take a project from start to finish. For me the entire process of construction starts as an opportunity to serve a customer through transparency. Building is my source of creativity. I never shy away from design challenges. My ultimate goal is to create an environment that is timeless and will encourage culture, community, and memories.
John Ruskin, a leading Victorian art critic, once identified the build environment as encompassing 7 key principles:
sacrifice, truth, power, beauty, life, memory, and obedience. Those are the principles I strive to breathe into every project I’m privileged to be a part of.
