Frequently Asked Questions
-
At what point in my project should I involve an architect?
As soon as you decide you want to design your dream home or build your new work space! When you start with an architect, they can help you assess the feasibility of your idea, understand the opportunities and limitations of your building site, and explore options you may not have thought about.

What’s the difference between a residential and commercial architect?
Commercial architects are primarily responsible for designing architectural plans for non-residential buildings such as churches, retail stores, banks, and nonprofit organizations. Commercial architects must consider other aspects than your typical residential property, such as the correct number of restrooms, providing airflow, adequate heating and cooling systems, and abiding by health and safety laws.

Why do I need an architect?
By hiring an architect, you get a project designed for you and your specific desires and needs. An architect is skilled in making the best use of the property, light, space, and materials to create a space that fits you and the environment.
Without an architect, you risk making costly and time-consuming mistakes, delaying your project with construction revisions, and living with results that don't work for you.
We can also provide construction oversight or do regular site visits and report on progress. Staying engaged throughout the process, we are able to answer questions and guide the build to ensure the result matches the design plan. Having our team be your watchful eyes on the project is especially helpful if you are not able to be on-site yourself.
