Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 July 2013
“Ian has been very easy to work with and also very responsive to our needs. He is quick to get back in touch with us when we have questions and his advice has been invaluable. Since we are new to the area we rely on Ian's experience and suggestions as they relate to coastal living. We are very pleased with our choice of Grau Coastal Construction, one of the companies to whom Ian referred us. It's a super team - way to go guys!”

“Mangrove Design produced tiles that incorporated melted glass that gave a unique design for our backsplash in the kitchen. The design coordinated and enhanced the entire kitchen. We receive many compliments for the work and we would recommend Mangrove Design to others without hesitation.”
Pemberton Home Design LLC

“We own a well designed and built 1926 bungalow, which had a not-so-well designed addition in the 1950s. We loved and treasured the original part of the house, but wanted to remove the addition and add a master bedroom suite and home office that would blend in with the charm of the original house and its steep-pitched (12/12) tile roof. We talked to three architects (paid two to draw concept sketches) but no one could – or wanted to take the time to - determine how to tie into the stick-built roof and create an addition large enough to meet our needs but not overwhelm the original structure. That is, no one until we met Mark Pemberton. We had heard of Mark and knew he had designed a number of beautiful – and very large – homes in central Florida and thought that our little addition would not be of interest to him; but decided to contact him. It was clear from our first meeting that if anybody could solve our design problem it would be Mark. It didn’t come easy but he was engaged, involved, innovative, and persistent. With Mark’s attention to detail – and a builder and roofer (who found and installed matching 1926 Ludowici tile) with the same craftsman dedication – we have a wonderful addition to our home.”

“Patricia is the quintessential professional. She listened to everything we wanted in a house and added her own amazing details. She designed the home of our dreams. I would recommend her without hesitation. Not only were her designs gorgeous they also helped save us money in the long run. She was on-site daily to ensure perfection in carrying out our plans. You will not regret this decision!”

While giving me ideas, he also took the time to give me little decorating tips that I could implement for any project I started on. So extremely happy I came across Cervone International Designs and can't wait for future ideas and projects!” Show Less”

2,000+Total Number of Reviews Left by Homeowners
An architect or building designer in West DeLand, FL 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 West DeLand, FL 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 West DeLand, FL 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.

Questions to ask prospective architects and building designers in West DeLand, FL:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with
  • your vision.)
  • Will you help with hiring general contractors and renovation contractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
