Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars31 March 2015
“We initially met Jim Hann through a referral while interviewing architects to assist us in designing our "dream house" in Arizona. After careful consideration, we selected Jim because of his talent for designing beautiful homes, many which have won awards, and his warm and friendly personality. Working with Jim has been a delight. He brings a "can do" attitude to resolving design issues and always has an open mind to our ideas and concerns. He has gone above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we were satisfied with the design so that it would work for us, our lifestyle and our family.”

“Designed a porch extension and small home office addition on our 1909 Foursquare. His entire focus was to make the area functional, but look like it had always been there. It's beautiful and even the mailman who has been delivering mail there for 12 years didn't realize we had extended the porch.”
Design Services NW

“Oscar and team did an incredible job designing our lake home. I'm a budget focused guy and he was able provide thoughtful design solutions that minimized cost while maximizing the wow factor of our design. Our site was extremely steep (think near vertical) and Oscar was able to create an incredibly efficient solution by integrating structural and site design with our unconventional floorplan needs. Our project is nearing completion and Design Services NW was our best decision. Nate W”
Hendricks Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Bonners Ferry.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 March 2012
“We have worked with Hendricks Architecture on a number of projects and have always found them to be highly professional, creative and easy to work with. I'm very impressed with their ability to take a client's list of design wants and needs, often times expressed with only a few pictures and emails, and transform that information into a beautiful design with a functional layout. We've recommended a number of clients to Hendricks Architecture and regardless of the home size or budget, each client is given the same level of attention and care. Nationally recognized for luxurious lake and mountain cabins, for one of our clients they designed a small lake cabin, to be used as a family retreat, that will be certified by the National Association of Home Builders Green Building Standard. Lastly, as a contractor, we appreciate Hendricks Architecture for considering our input and expertise during the design phase. We have found that when such collaboration is allowed to take place a project is more likely to stay on schedule and within a client' budget.”

“When we began our search for an architect to design a home and auxiliary dwelling unit to build on ten sloping acres in Northern Idaho, I spent hours reading bios on houzz and visiting the websites of various architects and designers. When I found Brian Reeves I was instantly intrigued. We wanted to find someone who appreciates the beauty of traditional architectural forms as much as we do, someone who would capture our vision not only for a house but for a lifestyle of hospitality, and who would also carefully consider our unique needs. As an active but aging couple with a disabled adult son, our plan is to live in community with our married daughter and her family, since they will assume our son’s care when we are no longer able to or are no longer around. I could tell by Brian’s drawings that he loved classic architecture and was extremely talented and creative. I sent him a message that started a conversation that led to the design of a beautiful home that surpasses our original vision. Brian has been so easy and delightful to work with. He is warm and approachable, listens well, and has an amazing ability to envision a three-dimensional structure from the simple sketched floor plans I sent him. He took our ideas, suggested changes that greatly improved them, and created a design that surpassed all of our initial hopes. Brian combines tremendous giftedness as a designer with willingness to listen and thoughtful attention to detail. Our builder has also commented on Brian’s beautiful design and how easy it is to talk with him. We highly recommend Brian to anyone looking for a gifted designer.”

Straight Line Building Design, LLC
Architects & Building Designers in Bonners Ferry.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 November 2014
“Krister Allen designed our luxury, custom-built home in 2002/2003. Although he was accustomed to creating a full set of construction drawings, we had asked him to work with us by designing the initial schematics then work with our us and our builder to design the details concurrently with the construction. He did it with flexibility and full attention to details. He communicated really well with all parties and inspected the progress throughout the job. He was even willing to take on the challenge of an indoor Endless Pool. We especially like his sense of design and flow through the rooms and his willingness to respond to every idea in a constructive way. We highly recommend him.”

An architect or building designer in Bonners Ferry, ID can transform your needs and desires into a visual concept and habitable structure. They will help you determine what is possible in terms of your land and the budget you have, and then work with you to plan a home design that best caters to your lifestyle.

Architects and building designers have an extensive knowledge of architectural designs and trends, as well as construction methods and building materials, and are well versed in seeing the ‘bigger picture’. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, their scope of work can span project management and sustainable design for your renovation, to the selection of furniture and finishes. So whether you’re building from scratch, adding an extension or renovating your Bonners Ferry, ID home, engage an architect or building designer to make your dream home a reality.

How do I find the best architect for my home design project?


It is best to hire a home architect or building designer who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. The architect is often the first person you will hire for your project. If necessary, they might also help you select and hire Bonners Ferry, ID general contractors, which can include builders, engineers and landscape architects. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process.

As far as the process goes, the architecture firm that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. One of the most important duties of an architect is project management – that is, to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors.

It is very important to hire the right professional for the job. Remember that the most well-known or established architect or building designer might not provide the best architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project. Research and ask people whose work you like for recommendations. It's important to have an idea of the style of architecture you prefer, as well as the amount you would like to spend. Architects are natural problem solvers. They will assess the entire situation and help you to solve your problems too. Don't settle for a single company too early. Call and interview a few. Make sure that you feel like your personalities will mesh well and that you like their professional perspective.

  • What is your fee structure?

  • your vision.)
