Featured Reviews for Architects & Building Designers in Appleton.

skaala architecture, LLC
Architects & Building Designers in Appleton.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 August 2016
“We never intended to live in a dream house. Good, functional, and thoughtful architecture would have been fine. But our home on coastal Maine is so beautifully designed that the builder uses it to advertise to clients! Working with Dave Johnson at Skaala was nothing less than a superb experience. Through the design phase until the last drop of paint, Dave was a reassuring presence. When we moved in we already knew every corner of the house intimately and three years later it continues to give us pleasure and a true sense of home.”
BRIBURN – Architecture for Life
Architects & Building Designers in Appleton.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 February 2015
“We took on Briburn for a substantial new residential project on the basis of their website and their stated philosophy, and a 2 hour interview/discussion. As our first and only choice, they clearly stood out among a dozen other architects in the area. We are in the midst of planning now and the process is almost painless. Their guidance is gentle and considerate; their knowledge of "green" building practices is vast. I'm eagerly looking forward to the next steps in this adventure with Briburn.”

“What talent. Dave solved an incredible problem requiring living space for an in law and maximization of open space that could be integrated into useful living areas I have worked with many architects and designers over the years and Dave sees and does thing very few people can. Dave is also a great person to work with and always completes projects in time and on budget. Highly recommend. ”

Dominic Paul Mercadante Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Appleton.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 October 2015
“After looking at several websites, interviewing three architects, we knew Dominic was the one for us. His professionalism, knowledge and personality make him a pleasure to work with. Dominic took some of our general concepts and personal needs and turned them into something wonderful. He even acted as a marriage councilor by resolving differences of opinion between my husband and me that satisfied us both! He was right on target with our budget and met all his schedules.Dominic's attention to detail has impressed all those who visit us. He is as talented in interior design as he is with architecture. Thank you Dominic for creating our dream home!”

“I have worked with Tobias professionally on a number of his projects. He is a very creative architect, stretching the imaginations of the clients he works with to realize more than just their initial vision. His approach is professional and yet flexible. The homes he has designed are spectacular yet very comfortable and grounded. Toby has made the many clients I've had the privilege of working with very happy. I fully recommend his services and the chance to work with a great architect.”

An architect or building designer in Appleton, ME 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 Appleton, ME 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 Appleton, ME 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?
  • What does the cost include?

  • your vision.)
